Evgenia Medvedeva

I am curious with the test skates if Orser/Wilson will have a strategy of some sort. Since Eteri will be seeing Evgenia's new program for the first time and Alina is probably Evgenia's biggest competitor, Eteri might adjust her own skater's program based on what she sees from Evgenia so do you show her the whole thing before the Prix events?

BUT, if Evgenia just shows her "basic" program (if she has something extra or a surprise in it of some sort) then it might make Eteri think Alina's program is ample enough.

I just feel that the test skates might be a good opportunity to play some strategy between competitors.

And not sure why, but for some reason I am thinking there will be a surprise in one of Evgenia's programs that we haven't seen from her before in competition.

The whole purpose of test skates is to impress RusFed. Their opinion have a huge impact on assignments, funding and political backing overall. That's why it's crucial to show your weapons and do as well as possible on the test skates. A "basic" programme won't cut the mustard.
 
Re the test skates: Evgenia’s main goal is to show her best to her federation and to use the test skate as a way to assess where she is in her preparation for the season. The point isn’t using the test skates as a weapon in a war against her ex coach who, as I’ve said previously, will also be busy doing her job with her skaters.

This next season is all about Zhenya’s growth as an athlete and a performer, not about a futile war.
 
Hi guys. Just wondering if Zhenya has her own fan forum that is active as Planet Hanyu.
 
Is it surprising though? Sure we didn't see it in competition and it's pretty original, but it doesn't bring a lot more points than her old layout... But I guess nothing but a 3A or a quad would really be a surprise in terms of points... :scratch2:

Sure, in terms of points it doesn´t bring much(0,3 points). What brings her BV up? A 3F3lo combo in the FS (1point), fixing her lutz (2-3 points).

A calculator, maybe it´s helpful for you.

I am really, really curious to see her new FS layout and what they decided to use in the bonus. I think her SP layout may have stayed the same, but I hope they have upgraded her FS tech a little!

I haven’t visited Planet Hanyu yet but it sounds like a popular place for fans. [emoji106] This fanfest seems to regularly have a lot of activity which is great and I imagine it’s going to be even more busy once the new season kicks into gear.
