Bobrova/Solovyev were great and they deserve to go to the Olympics.
As for me, Domnina/Shabalin weren't impressive, I expected more from them.
P.S. Tarasova liked their costumes but not the program.
Well, she is now saying that they will improve technically BUT her problem is with the excessive usage of assisting devices in the program aka 6 lifts using the belt.
Damn I missed the FD and now Im really bummed about Rubleva/Shefer, this is like a Matthews/Zavozin situation.. being on top of their competitors during the last 2 seasons just to lose your ticket on the final event
Baby Dmitriev landed a quad, but he had some trouble on landing of soem of his jumps and fell on a 2A+2A sequence. but considering his age he will surely be a factor for 2014.
Is the Men's FS on right now?
Men's LP is on now.
Artur Jr brought the house down.
nice skate for Dimitriev ..
how old is he?
16
And with less than one point. No wonder she had a hard time holding her tears back. They will be first alternates though, I suppose.Damn I missed the FD and now Im really bummed about Rubleva/Shefer, this is like a Matthews/Zavozin situation.. being on top of their competitors during the last 2 seasons just to lose your ticket on the final event
Artur Dmitriev is in a close second place(0,48) to Gachinsky. Tarazova sounded very excited and impressed by him?
I found this on Wikipedia:
Maybe you all knew this already, but I didn't. How old is he?Dmitriev's wife is named Tatiana Druchinina, a former gymnast turned choreographer. Incidentally, she choreographed the Olympic programs of ice dancers Tatiana Navka and Roman Kostomarov. They were married in 1992 and have one son, Artur Jr who is a singles skater.
thanx
nice debut
16 as oxade21 as posted above, i remember Dmitriev Sr. talking about marriage and his child in 1993 or 1994, then he was still skating with Mishkutenok. i am sure It was before the 1994 olympics. the video was available on Youtube, but copyright crusaders removed it.
Domnina and shabalin are not going to do Gala, they are flying back to continue training.

Is that a sure thing? Rubleva/Shefer had a better Grand Prix than B/S.
Yes, they got a bronze at rostelecom, but I don't think that will count for a lot. Bobrova / Soloviev scored well at SC eventhough they finished 4th, their FD was (3rd) very well marked in comparison to Samuelson / Bates, or Weaver / Poje who took bronze there.
Please, can someone describe what Grigoriyev did?
