Adelina Sotnikova

[Meoima]

that's a good performance.

I'm actually in love with this girl after having seen her two programs (long at the JO).

Sassy samba short and appropriately overdramatic French long.

Way more interesting than any of the other senior Russians I've seen.

Oh. My. God.

I would say that the 2nd 3T was < or <<, but I don't have a real problem with the PCS she got, she looks gorgeous. This could be a great start into the season for her! Her speed, edge work, jump elevation, posture and expression really set her apart. I'm so glad she's still around!

Yes! That first jump's height was absurd! She almost overrotated because of it...? :shocked:

I think her program was absolutely fantastic!!! The best part was just how ridiculously happy she looked skating it- it really just makes you want to smile and start to skate yourself!!

It is wonderful to have her back!

:thumbsup: She's so charismatic and her energy is infectious. Good job, Adelina! That was amazing!

Good luck on your free skate! I'll have to watch the videos when I get home from work (have to be in at 6:00am... )

That smile is so infectious! I'm glad to see her still genuinely enjoy skating, even after all that. Good way to start the season, hope she remains injury free throughout.

I'm SO happy she's back!!!
Bravo Adelina, and congratulations to all her loyal fans

Seeing as though so many of you are loving it, I will have to check it out in a few hours when I can! I am happy she did well.

I actually think it is the best she has ever skated any SP, no joke. Not just the elements but just her energy, choreography, emotion... really superb!

 

[jagragold]

Loved her skating!!!!!!!!

Good luck for tomorrow

And people already are talking about overscoring and they had not even seen it At least wait until after you've seen it, then judge.

Awesome!

 

[Totentanz]

That skate was amazing, I love it!

 

[Mony]

I finally got to see it, I love it!. It isn't perfect but it is a great improvement from earlier in the season!! I won't really look at the score because majority of B events are overscored, I am just happy she was clean and this gives her confidence. I agree I love her energy and her emotions. It must be really great for her to be back!

Good luck to her for the LP!

 

[wallee]

her posture and projection has improved
can she keep it together in the LP ? shes always been a good SP skater

 

[RemyRose]

can she keep it together in the LP?

Fingers crossed :agree:

This ^

After so much time away with injuries, she's back! And not just back the way she was - she's improved and better than ever! DWTS surely made a big difference?

I was worried whether she could get her jumps back for this season, but my fears look unfounded now, based on this performance! Looking forward to the FS now...
