Thank you. I hope she skates, she should be able to make the podium even with a couple of mistakes
, so no chnnce of competing today? Im soo disappointed
this was the perfect nationals for her to finally win gold with no Julia
Sotnikova will become a 4 time Russian Champion ?
What is your problem with Adelina?? I remember you liked her last year. And she skated very well in the SP.

AlexRus just replied this is just news and Liza didn't withdrew yet.
I gave up on Adelina, she is a headcase which I could never support
Julia and Liza are the future of the Russian ladies skaters maybe Elena too but not Adelina
You have up on a 16 year old because she can't skate consistently yet? Your expectations are a bit high IMO. Just watch Kostner
Julia and Elena are too young, puberty might hit them hard. Liza's jumps were too good in the first place to succumb to puberty
So a season and a half of poor results which did include a national title and the potential for another and you're calling her a head case? Ashley Wagner was much worse before she went to John Nicks and now look at her. Adelina could easily be the future of Russian skating.
Plus 3 medals on GP circuit, another junior world medal and youth Olympics silver. For many skaters, this season and a half would be considered successful
Combos SP (info from forums, protocols are not availiable yet) in starting order

15 3T+3T
16 3T+3T
17 3F+3T
18 3Т+3Т fall
I agree. It's waaay too early to give up on Adelina. She's only 16 or 17 years old...give her a chance to grow and mature before you throw the towel in. The only thing Adelina is missing is confidence and, as with most girls, that comes with age and maturity. She's massively talented and you shouldn't give up on that kind of talent without giving it an opportunity to develop.
Just look at Kostner/Czisny/Wagner/Suzuki!

What time is Ladies FS?
it is ok if Liza doesnt skate, she and RN dont get along, I ll be dissappointed cause that would have been a fight now with Adelina and Elena but Yagudin never won Nationals and I d be fine if Liza would have his career too.
Ladies FS starts in about an hour I believe. I was thinking the exact same thing about Liza and YagudinWhat time is Ladies FS?

Exactly. Some skaters take a little longer to "find themselves" in this sport. Adelina started as a junior phenom but she's run into the same pitfalls that most girls her age do in this sport. She's retained all of her jumps, spins, speed, etc., so that's the great news. From here, it's just a matter of figuring out how to make it all work again. She's been struggling this season but to turn in a clean SP at a pressure-filled event like nationals is a big deal (IMO opinion anyway).
Same thing for Liza T. She's had a rough season too. It took some time but she adjusted to her new height and weight and slowly gained her confidence back over the course of the season. She was wonderful in her SP and I really hope she is able to compete in the LP.
