Golden Spin is a rather big event. 23 teams are on entry list, 6 of them besides Ksenia and Andrei are from this season GP curcuit.

They are listed for Golden Spin in Zagreb, early December, as one of two Russian pairs.
The other one being Akopova/Shagalov, predominantly coached by Fedor Klimov.
Good move by the Fed! Golden Spin scores are often inflated, they have chance to improve the SB.
I think they can do well! They have all the goods; now they just need to deliver. It’s a smaller crowd so hopefully Andrei won’t be so nervous.
I just hope the other pairs don’t get inflated scores too. I feel like Stolbova/Novoselov were lowballed on PCS even at Rostelecom Cup TBH.
Afraid all Pairs will have inflated scores, but it's not like all of them will do beter than them. And Ksenia's basics are great, but Andrei is not as good. (It was the same with S/M) I really just hope that Andrei won't stress over too much this time. He clearly can't deal with it yet. I don't want to get too much hope, less dissapointment! But I'm super glad they have opportunity to compete again
It's good they need scores for next year .. and I don't think they need the competition to become better and have a shot at 3 place at nationals.
Are you sure?

lol... I want to say they need the competition .. I write it wrong
Does anyone have the time schedule for Golden Spin of Zagreb?
Ksenia and Andrei withdrew from Golden Spin of Zagreb. Apparently they never even arrived in Croatia. I'm assuming they haven't had enough time to prepare (she did mention being ill a few weeks ago). Not surprising, but still disappointing. Hopefully they can deliver decent performances at Russian Nationals, but the field is stacked with talent so they'll need to bring their A-game if they want a shot at the Euros and Worlds teams.
Watching GPF today, they have 0 chances to make it to Euros. Savchenko/Massot had it easier, because of non existent comeptition withing Germany, but the young Russian Pairs teams are out for a blood and Ksenia & Andrei don't have the same luxury.
They are not ready at this moment and I don’t think there is a need to rush it. The Olympics are in two years and two months.Watching GPF today, they have 0 chances to make it to Euros.
