In my opinion Frankie was the most technically correct. Her footwork, what we saw of it, was pretty accurate. They didn't show the footwork on the fleckerl, but when she did it in training, shown on ITT the other evening, it was very good - and it is very tricky, most SCD couples just do a simple run-around.
Although you didn't ask, I think the worst dance technically was Jake's samba. It was horrendous. The couple of samba steps he attempted were very poorly danced, and the rest was just made-up Dad-Dancing.
I loved Simon's salsa, but apart from knowing his steps were too big, I couldn't comment on it technically as I have never danced salsa.
