Adelina Sotnikova

Sima stays in juniors this season.

Yes but if she places 3rd at nationals do you think they will pass her, Proklova, or Sotskova over now that they are age eligible? They didn't even do that with Gosviani who is less accomplished. Especially if they finished 3rd, 4th, 5th (it could happen :laugh:). I betcha they will not skip over all them to send sixth place. Bookmark this ;)

Oh and one thing that the Russian feds love is momentum. If you know who has the momentum coming out of GPF/JGPF it's easier to see who they will swing towards on the PCS/GOEs.

Yeah but it's always only so much a person can take. it's always the anonymous people as well, they love to hide behind their computers and call people names. Not only talking bout Adelina but in general.

So true. Seriously who has that kind of time? To make fake accounts just to bully/harass people. But some people get off on doing stuff like this (online and in person)....... I'll never get that :disapp:

Thanks for that. I think if she does well she might get that home GP spot. Now that I think about it, it is probably better she doesn't get the two GP spots, as it will be less pressure on her. She hasn't done competitions for a year. So I think (hopefully) doing great a couple Senior B's can really help her confidence and then she goes from there.
 
I was expecting for a more dramatic announcement [emoji23]

Oh well, nice to know that she has a chance to go to GPF
 
I don't think she can make GPF with 1 event. Speedy made sure of that years ago :laugh:
Well, it is at least "possible", with good skating and/or some luck...

Rika Hongo only had one GP placement last year... but did well enough there (and at Finlandia?) to put herself near the top of the heap, when replacements were needed for withdrawals from GP events... and eventually she ended up at the GPF...! :-D
 
Yeah anything is possible

Thanks for the information. So she want to do Moscow GP. It would be a nice boost for her to skate infront of her home fans. However, a lot of pressure as well.
