Copycat!

Let's hope there is a 2020 / 2021 season.

You're such a bad guy

Let's hope there is a 2020 / 2021 season.

I think there should be. You can't keep the planet closed for years.

flanker - Is it possible to add the Russian flag icon to the beginning of the thread title, like the previous ones?

Unfortunately I can't do that. Usually the flag appears when the thread has about four pages, I don't know if that's self-acting or "admin-acting"

 

[sparklestan]

Here’s to hoping all of the Russian ladies have a great 2020-2021 season!! :agree:

 

[skycastles]

Really excited to see what Tuktamysheva does this season. I always feel that she is on the edge of breaking through to the top, but its hard to say with the competition getting harsher.

 

[Resa]

Really excited to see what Tuktamysheva does this season. I always feel that she is on the edge of breaking through to the top, but its hard to say with the competition getting harsher.

It's just awesome that she still stays so relevant after almost 10 years as a senior. She is the one who brought me to watch figure skating in 2011 so she has a special place in my heart

 

[Spirals for Miles]

I'm really excited to see how Anna does this season... if we have a season, I think she can win it all, especially as she stabilizes her quads

 

[renebaebae]

I'm really excited for the new season to start. I'm very curious to see what plushenko is going to with trusova in terms of choreography and packaging after everything that has happened. I'm so excited to see the rest of the girls.

No you cant keep the planet closed for years. But some want to.

 

[Mathman]

No you cant keep the planet closed for years. But some want to.

? Can you name a single such person?

 

[theharleyquinn]

Wow the end of an era. Excited to (hopefully) discuss another eventful season!

 

[eterislouisvuitton]

I'm excited but also scared to see what happens this season, especially with the growing 3A with Eteri's previous history. I hope they can overcome everything, and I hope every Russian lady a great season!

Btw, Ksenia Sinitsyna is guarenteed to come to seniors. She has points for 2 GP assignments and is on the reserve team. Vika Vasilieva also has points for one GP, and Russia have enough spots this year to grant her one unlike Gubanova and Tarusina. Anastasia Tarakanova will compete, but it is not known whether in juniors or seniors.

I'm just Sasha's biggest fan, I started watching FS for her. I am so happy but also so scared, I don't doubt Plushenko but he is very inexperienced. I hope Rozanov and Volkov can bring her happiness, health and success!

 

[Skatesocs]

I do not know where to find current Japanese threads or past ones...

 

[Dr Flutz]

Coaching changes, please add the Zhilina sisters (or at the very least Veronika) from Tutberidze to Plushenko.

Is the junior team not set? I thought it was: Valieva, Usacheva, Khromykh.

[Dr Flutz]

I'm excited but also scared to see what happens this season, especially with the growing 3A with Eteri's previous history.

The "3A" shorthand needs to be abandoned now. Not only do some (or maybe all) of them not like it themselves, but w/ Trusova in Plushenko camp, and Zagitova "back" in Eteri camp, it's unclear whether third A is Trusova of original 3A which with Zagitova became 4A, or if 3A means A.K.+A.S.+A.Z. so better just drop it now for next season.
