In the short program, the performance of the pair of Russian art & egrave; was marked by lights and shadows, but, for sure, the rust for the long absence is & egrave; was heard, not to mention the 'incidence of physical problems that have long Trankov afoot. Only cos & Igrave; you can & ograve; explain the 'breathlessness in the socket end of the triple twist delayed a few tenth of too much or the' breathlessness of both skaters on the occasion of triple flip launched, landed on two feet from Volosozhar Trankov while in the meantime danger of falling on the cross-over . It & egrave ;, however, proved the perfect 'execution of the triple toe loop in parallel and, in general, the competition faced in Bavaria, & egrave; It emerged a cure upper and a greater sophistication in the construction of each element and in the various steps of transition. Obviously, the great novelty & agrave; & Egrave; It was represented by triple flip launched, which in the short program has taken the place of the triple Rittberger.

A great sorpesa, the place of 'honor & egrave; It was conquered by the debutants in pairs Mari Vartmann / Ruben Blommaert, punctual on the triple toe loop in parallel and among the best of the lot nell''esecuzione dell''ostica lapped back. The new German association, coached by their spouses at Oberstdorf Wende, you & egrave; had the satisfaction of making mark the best technical response containing the gap to Volosozhar / Trankov in less than four lengths.
In third place, came the French Vanessa James / Morgan Cipres that, after opening the test with a triple twist disastrous, have recovered from the big completing the best triple toe loop in parallel and the triple flip launched.
