LOOOOL, I love this. :rofl:

Evgenia Medvedeva's SP

Watch closely from 5:33 - Team Russia does a fun ceremony where they "bow down to Queen Medvedeva".

Who was the only one who didn't bow? Do we even need to guess? :laugh2:

You ain't the queen, honey, Evgenia Medvedeva. :biggrin:

Love it!

edit: this needs to be a gif! Somebody make this into a gif, please!

Shhhhh!! Don't give the Lena-haters any ammunition!! Though of course, I think this is just :rofl: and :peace:

Well, the SP result was basically the best that Lena could have hoped for--2nd place and a new personal best. Congrats Lena!!! :clap:

Her skate wasn't perfect, but it was definitely a step in the right direction. Aside from the lutz (which still looked pretty good--she didn't have to put the free leg down), her landings looked smoother today. I definitely thought the days when Lena could improvise a 3Lo+3T were over, but she proved me wrong!!! There's our iron-willed fighter!!! :yes2: She had been struggling with underrotations on her 3T earlier in the season, but this one was perfectly clean, and on an improvised combo no less! :agree:

But the most entertaining stuff to me was the fluff!

Like this improvised "play" depicting Max's journey to Tokyo: :rofl:

OF COURSE Lena is front and center, and OF COURSE her dancing is the best!! :agree:

Even when they line up, somehow Lena grabs the spotlight:

What can I say? Lena's just a STAR!! :biggrin:
 

This was soooo :rofl:

But what are they saying? :confused: All I could understand from Lena was "Mom, Dad, Andruysha [Bobrova's husband], hi!"

According to Japanese Twitter, apparently Lena was dancing the whole time that Tarasova/Morozov was waiting for their scores, and Zhenya was watching her, so Lena taught her the dance, and they were dancing together, BUT THIS DIDN'T SHOW UP IN ANY OF THE VIDEOS!!! :sad4: If anyone finds a video of this, PLEASE POST THE LINK!!! :bow:

A little bit more of Lena from the opening ceremony:

I wonder what she's laughing at!

That Russian headdress really suits Lena! :love:

Well, once again, I will be asleep when Lena skates, and I am super nervous, but I hope Lena just seizes this opportunity and has an amazing performance!!! :agree: GOOOOOO LENA!!!!!!!!! :hap93: :clap:
 
Thank you for sharing all the videos and images!! Lena looks like she's having a great time :luv17:
I'm glad she and Evgenia look like they are on friendly terms, and all of team Russia looks very close, so hurray for the team spirit!
I loved her short yesterday- I think it was one of the best times she's performed it, and so proud of her for doing the 3-3 later! I think it's funny how everyone had her last or second to last in predictions. Goes to show you can never count her out! Anyway, hoping she slays in the long program :clapper:
 
I love Lena💗! She is wonderful! I wanted to see her in competition again! Thanks for the information and the photos, also the videos!😊

Is it my idea ... or does someone else see that Yuzu and Lena cross glances, from time to time? (They are very tender)😍

What a beautiful and emotional performance! :cry: :love: :sad21: Thank you so much, Elena :bow: :bow: You are a true performer and fighter :luv17:
 
Congratulations Lena on her performances and winning silver with Team Russia! She hasn't competed for long months and comes back lack this! It is a superb achievement. She's just a ray of sunshine on the ice, too, I loved watching her. :luv17:
 
Fans, for some reason, sometimes make more conflicts in their heads between their favourites and non-favourites than there really are in the real life (I mean also many other skaters). Some who have been working with them say Russian ladies have a very good team spirit though their have a hard competition between them. But nice to see the smiling Elena again. I really had not earlier realized not know she had grown so tall. I am sure she will have better year next year and this gives her confidence.
