Savchenko & Szolkowy change Short Program

The Pink Panther sneaks back onto the ice. I loved it!

German news report that Aljona and Robin are abandoning their When Winter Comes routine. The new short program will feature the music of The Pink Panther which they had previously used for their free program, during the 2010/11 season. The collaboration with André Rieu continues to remain somewhat problematic as his rendition of You'll never walk alone didn't make it onto Olympic Ice either. In 2010, after a couple of disappointing performances at the start of the season, S/S switched to a new program to Out of Africa.

Good luck to S/S. They will hopefully benefit from that move.

*ETA: Ingo Steuer is quoted hoping that the new short can increase their PCS by about 2 points.
