I like Anna because she has a uniquely elegant(even sensual, though she's 16...) style and I like the way she moves around the ice. One little thing(and some will think odd) I've noticed is that the sound of her skates go along with the music more than most other skaters. I think she can be somewhat emotionally distant which is completely invisible when she hits her program hard with perfect timing but is amplified if she is off timing and hits her spins slowly.

Personally I loved Pogorilaya's Firebird program and the costume...but Nick Verreos' fashion sensibility is questionable most of the time
Last year she had a stellar short and a long program that was muted by a flat piece of music (which I loved...in the actual movie itself). This year, I feel like her long is more captivating than the short.

I enjoy Nick Verreos's blog, though it's hit-or-miss whether I agree with his opinions. I do agree with him on the Firebird costume, however...it's perfect for the program. Sometimes it seems people forget that skating costumes are just that - costumes - and they are meant to portray a story, with an element of fantasy. It's not like she is wearing this to a formal ball or a job interview. I guess I have a high threshold for costumes that others would call "tacky" (of course, there are some that cannot be excused at all ).
).Interesting gif(webm actually) uploaded to a russian image board...

Just re-watched Anna's Skate Canada performance... She's rocking that costume!!
She's amazing, I can't wait to see her skate again in CoR
I hope she improved on her spins and is ready to skate with more defined movements! Stravinsky is not an easy choice of music, and I love her for choosing it.
Such a Russian piece of music to go along with her elegance.
Her magic costume in the gala was beyond cool btw.

Thanks, Alba. I loved this part of her interview:
""I try to take something good from every strong skater. From Yulia Lipnitskaya, I take consistency, flexibility. From Mao, Kostner, Kim — stroking. From Zhenya Plushenko — his determination. I see that he still wants to skate. He even told us: I envy you, you are so young, I wish I were that young. He wants to skate. He's consistency is amazing."

Well, that's how she is particularly in that pose - among other beautiful things - to my eyes. Very coquette. Not my fault.
Might sound creepy to you, but it's not a negative thing, IMO.
I'm also a woman interested in men, only. So, I have no other intentions, besides admiration, towards her. :sarcasm:

nothing wrong with being attractive but I dont consider 16 to be sexy yet
she's getting enough attention at skate canada for being an attractive, she's a better version of gold who can land the jumps most of the time.

Well, to be frankly Anna is not as refined as Gracie. But she lands her jumps and she's more stunning.
There was Press Conference before Rostelecom Cup today. Stolbova/Klimov and Pogorilaya were there.

Thank you, Alex Rus!
And here's a video from that conference. It's in Russian though.
