Could Russian posters kindly provide us with some summary? In English of course.

In short, Eteri is angry that they're considering sending Adelina to the Euros without her taking part in a single competition.

Yes, the google translation is not that good, although you could understand more or less what she's saying.
I think she is throwing a shot to those who told Yulia that she should partecipate in the GP series this year? ;) :biggrin:
Well, she has a point there.

agree, given the fact that Adelina has been injured for so long and she hasn't been tested under pressure of this season and her new programs are not jugded internationally yet.

Not really. All she says is that she could have told Julia to relax and get ready for the Euros as well! Whereas she still encouraged her to take part in every GP competition, even though Julia wasn't quite ready.

Yulia was also told that she should because of ranking or something like that. She said that after China, in the interview with Flade. Furthermore, someone could reply to Eteri: "but Adelina didn't relax in order to prepare for Euros. She was injured, so due to force majeure." You see what I mean? Unless she somehow doubt that.

I'm sure she doesn't doubt that, but her point is that skaters should earn their right to go to these major competitions by their performance this year. Otherwise it kills the compettitive drive in other skaters if one is selected as a favourite.
She has a point and she's ready to fight - which is better than just keeping silent.

Fayruza, you are right!

Well, I agree with that myself but these are the (non) rules. I would prefer her to say that when Yulia wins. Anyway, it's understandable why she doesn't like that. Yulia could be the one left home. :scowl:

Thank you Isabel. I believe Yulia will do better at Nationals too. I hope she has figured out how to stay focused without thinking too much about edge calls, falls, or even winning.

Here are some new videos from her fans on YouTube. Apparently, Lipnyatas are still working hard. :) I apologize if any of them was posted before.

The last one is actually Sam's video. I noticed that, near the end, Yulia reached down to thank the ice (I think).

I meant to comment about this before but I forgot, Serafima made a similar type motion when she got off the ice for the SP. Something from Eteri's group, maybe? Or just a coincidence after a great skate? Anyway I thought it was cute and meaningful.

To me they are showing respect and giving thanks to the ice in the same way a soccer player would kiss the field after a great victory. Yuzuru did the same thing as he stepped onto the ice for his medal ceremony.

Yuzuru always touches the ice, and even bow down to the ice. It's like his ritual.
I think Western ladies don't share the same belief. But there's high possibility that they want to say thank you to the ice.

I believe he started doing it ritually after the 2011 earthquake. Always touches the ice when he steps on it and always bows before and after entering/leaving the rink.
He said he feels lucky to be alive and always thanks the ice for allowing him the chance to skate/not taking it for granted.

By the way, I'm a LOTR fan, and I was thinking about Yulia doing a program as an Elf. :love:
I don't know but in my imagination, she would be the daughter of Galadriel. :)

Yulia can be a great Lúthien! :cheer:

Lúthien is too much maybe. Also, she had black hairs, right? Elena Ilinykh can be a great Lúthien. :biggrin:
Yulia has to skate something that reminds you a young Galadriel. Mysterious and cool. ;)

I was going to say that too! Even though she isn't as tall as Galadriel, Yulia would definitely encapsulate her beauty. Imagine Yulia with that long hair! That would be a very cool program!
