Don't you mean PCS?The incredible thing is that she still has room to grow as an artist and performer, so her TES should rise over the next few years.

Awesome
Something I found on russian boards. Elena is destined to win Euro's. And maybe silver at worlds?
In the first adult season Julia was 2 and 3 on the stage of the Grand Prix. In the first adult season Lena - the same. In the second season of adult Julia was 1 and 1 then 2nd in the final. In the second season of adult Lena - similarly. What coincidence though! Well, now be European champion Lena
Here is a better version of the Lena & Lena selfie:

These pages, in general, have a lot of good photos:

I like these from the gala practice.

And although Lena mostly is in photos with the other girls, I guess she must be pretty good friends with Maxim Miroshkin (Junior pairs skater):

Cool!! I gotta tell you though, that I really hope that this streak, or whatever one should call it, ends after this season. Or maybe before worlds already. I want her to win worlds
I'd say it is already broken! Yulia didn't win Russian Nationals last year, but Lena did this year!!
But the competition between Elena and Liza will be tough! It seems that Liza has the advantage in terms of PCS (and people seem to like her programs better..?), and she gets enough +GOE to make up for her lower base value. In other words, if they both skate totally clean, I think Liza will win.
That being said, they seem to be going back and forth with winning: Lena won Skate America, then Liza won GPF, then Lena won Russian Nationals...so does that mean Liza wins Euros and Lena wins Worlds?
As much as I would love for Lena to win EVERYTHING this year, what I really want for her is to win Olympic gold. So I'm a little torn. On one hand, I think that if Lena doesn't win Worlds, it will really motivate her to improve her skating, and she DOES have lots to work on--fixing her posture, having more control over arms/legs and looking more graceful in general. So in the long term, maybe that is better for her...? On the other hand, maybe next year she'll have problems with puberty (though I'm hoping not!!), so perhaps it's best to win everything while she can. Hmmmmm...
As long as I get to see *HAPPY LENA* celebrating at the end of her program, I'll be happy!
But this naturally does not change the fact that the golden medal does seem to accompany her smile rather nicely....

Q: Are you cheering for anyone in other other disciplines?
A: I'm happy for everyone who won prizes. If I were to single anyone out, I want to say a special word about Radionova. The entire season, she showed a fantastic performance. Her Rachmaninoff program -- for me - it is the standard [as in it is the best example of a Rachmaninoff program].
Indeed it does!!
Sergei Voronov had some nice things to say about Elena's Rachmaninoff program:

According to GoogleTranslate/the Japanese translation:
Not sure I totally agree, but it's so sweet of Sergei to single out Lena!
On a totally unrelated note, for someone who totally loves the spotlight and shamelessly blows kisses at all the cameras, Lena sure doesn't post much on Instagram!! I keep waiting for her to post some Nationals photos, but so far nothing yet...
this means that Radios is not an indoors type.Indeed it does!!
