The French couple, after comfortably set in the short-dance, you & egrave; literally exceeded in more & ugrave segment; long race registering the best all-time performance (118.17), an increase of one point and a half compared to the previous limit set by Davis / White US during the Sochi Olympics (116.63).
To tell the truth, it should be noted as a free dance in the first eight pairs Ranked have crumbled all those pi & ugrave; some less their personal records. Moreover, in addition to the winners of the title, six other couples, including the two Italian and three US pairs have got a plebiscite of four levels. Papadakis / CIZERON confirmed to be in possession of an edge pi & ugrave; and today also showed off a lethal combination of speed & agrave ;, softness and elegance. On balance, both race segments were the best of the lot in terms of the value basis, the degree of execution and in each entry of the components of the program legitimizing a victory that in the light of the full-blown seasonal vicissitudes did not appear cos & igrave; granted on the eve.
To find a pair able to win two consecutive world titles & egrave; need to bother the Bulgarians Denkova / Staviski, who imposed in 2006 and 2007, but the success of today & egrave; significant because never before a dance partnership transalpine was imposed in two editions of the World Championships.
The podium & egrave; was completed by the couple waited house Maia Shibutani / Alex Shibutani and Madison Chock / Evan Bates, who made the match or almost as & eacute; flap in the free dance ending in & rsquo; order and gaining the second medal in world championship career. Than last season, hierarchies are reversed and & egrave; Marina Zoueva touched students to take command of operations, but the blatantly obvious concerns the superiority & agrave; overall the US movement, who also filed the sixth place of extremely advanced Madison Hubbell and Zachary Donohue after having swept the titles in the junior events of the season.
The budget for the & rsquo; Italy & egrave; It was generally positive despite a & rsquo; gluing has failed the chance & agrave; to earn a place in the pi & ugrave; for the next World Championships in Helsinki, which will also have Olympic qualifying value. Anna Cappellini and Luca Lanotte for the fourth consecutive year, stood in the top four remodeling the Italian record with a lot of first hike of the more than 180 career points. After a positive short-dance, the Paola Mezzadri students rose by shots in the free dance recovering two positions in the standings. Charl & egrave; it Guignard and Marco Fabbri growing were not outdone and they got the first career placement in the top ten missing the ninth for little more & ugrave; of a point.
Albeit with the necessary distinctions necessary two countries come out of the World Championships with broken bones. Canada, waiting for the return to racing of Virtue / Moir, you & egrave; He had to settle for fifth place Kaetlyn Weaver and Andrew Poje, penalized for the & rsquo; umpteenth time by a & rsquo; execution of twizzle not all & rsquo; height of rivals, and of & rsquo; eighth Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier, authors still new personal best. Russia, however, for the first time in its glorious history, not & egrave; managed to place any torque in the top eight picking up his best result of ninth place Victoria Sinitsina / Nikita Katsalapov.
The revelation of the competition palm rests fully in the British Penny Coomes / Nicholas Buckland, brilliant seventh with an increase of ten points from the previous limit.
In the light of the results of Boston, in the next edition of the World Championships France, Canada and the United States will deploy three pairs, while Italy and Russia will have two spaces available.
