Yulia Lipnitskaya

liza tuktamysheva was asked about yulia in her latest interview. she said that she was surprised by yulia's retirement and illness. she also said that yulia didnt not try to be like everyone else, she was her own person :sad4:

Not just surprised - she said that she was shocked... Liza has always been good to Yulia, they have always been getting along well together.
 
What a definitive moment of a program.

Of course it's the transition out of the Needle Spin. Can anyone else hear the music swells which were timed up to match it?

This is what I'll miss the most and I mean no disrespect to today's skaters but she was able to capture a moment and define it with an elegance of imagery that I just don't see others able to replicate with such uniqueness.

I remember being constantly scolded by "experts" in 2014-2015 how Yulia's skating is not up to Yuna's, Mao's, Caro's, lacking artistry, musicality and all. I wonder what do they think about Julia now, when the next wave of Russian technicians dominated the field and even messier one is coming (speaking in general).
 
I have yet to see a I-spin like hers. Even when the skaters are flexible, they throw their heads back which just... spoils it.

I would like to see her skating in shows one day, should her health allow it. As someone her age who suffers from generalised anxiety and reccuring depression, I know first hand how much it takes to step back and take care of oneself while the world keeps moving.
 
another statement from yulia: http://tass.ru/wfys2017/articles/4656086

key points; i hope google translate is reliable this time:
- she thinks that russia should host another olympic winter games so that figure skating could really be popularised in russia
- points out how figure skating is really popular in japan, how all the fans of one skater go to a competition just for that jpn skater
- also points out how in america, it's the opposite and how the stands are empty (with an exception of the world championships)
 

Yaaaasss!!!!!

Let's be honest....the only two disciplines that Yulia really cares about is Mens and Ice Dance! Can someone please bribe the camera man for a live Yulia reaction video/jumbo-cam feed aswell?
 

She looks so grown-up and important :cool:

But still our cute dear girl :love:
