I uploaded an HQ version of Liza's gala at Euros (w/ a bit of 'bonus' footage of Liza from elsewhere in the gala):
2015 Europeans - Elizaveta Tuktamysheva Gala (setting goes up to 1080p HD, but source is more like 720p)
(edit) Made a better version : :
2015 Europeans - Elizaveta Tuktamysheva Gala B.ESP2 HD (1080p HD, more FPS, best I could do with the source)
Bristish Eurosport guys are always supportive. They even compliment Kovtun.
I can tell they really like top Russian ladies. They love K/S and when Yuko landed that 4S they almost screamed with delight. I love them.
That's why they are the best:yes: !
While American and Russian commentators are biased in general or at least have been at some occasions, the British Euro guys have never been like that!
Maybe it's because they don't have any really big contenders from their own country in there so they can view everything a bit more distanced.
Liza, Sasha Smirnov, and Tamara Moskvina were guests on a talk show today in St. Petersburg. They talked about the Euros and the future of skating in St. Petersburg. It seems very interesting...would anyone mind translating the main points?

Thank you, Lipea. I hope Liza can keep skating with this sense of freedom.To say really briefly (I have very limited time) about Liza (she did not speak much indeed):
1. The way she pronounces her name is TuktAmysheva, just like they did at Euros, which was surprising for me (as a native Russian speaker I thought it is TuktamYsheva)
2. She said she feels much better/more free this season. She knew that in EC her main competitors would be her teammates. Her goal was to satisfy herself and her coach with her skate, and then to see how judges would score it.
3. She came on the rink at 5 just because in the summer camp she made friends-skaters. Her parents were very happy about that because Liza was very energetic/active kid. She did not have any serious intentions at first.
4. Figure skating dresses are very expensive. They mentioned 40000 Rubles (which used to be over $1000 by old currency values) to spend on one dress is rather cheap.
Moskvina talked the most, mostly about FS education, but I don't have time to translate it right now unfortunately. I will do it next weekend if someone else don't do it before.

Old news from last week, but NBC aired their coverage of Europeans today. Made this video for Liza's FS:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWrRwlAx7UM I notice this dress is similar to her ethnic LP? Did she do this on purpose or was this a backup bc she forgot her dress?Sorry, I don't really follow her so much!
