Evgenia Medvedeva

Agree with you on quads, apart from Anna, Sasha and Elizabet, I don't see anyone doing them next season, even Rika. Look at 3A, it's been like 25 or more years since ladies started doing it, and it is still a rare thing, done by only a handful of women. And actually now I believe that Zhenya will be able to fight at least for the third sport even without quad or 3A.

The first 3A done by a lady is older than me :laugh: Also, Lilibet's BV wasn't higher than Alina's even with the quad. Zhenya could try more dificult combos and improve the Lutz and it should be enough
 
don’t know if anyone already mentioned ekaterina’s post about zhenya, but gabriella papadakis reposted it in her story with a heart. 😍 so nice to see so much support behind our girl.
 
German comentators are the worst and not just in skating; I watch F1 regularly and they are just the worst... worse than spanish comentators and that's not to be taken lightly. Although Spanish FS comentators are these very nice ladies Paloma and Susana and I just miss them.

Really? I like the German commentators but I only know about figure skating. They were very happy for her today and praised her endlessly. It isn‘t likely that Zhenya will a 3A, so what‘s wrong in saying that? Maybe she will, even though I doubt it, but it would surprise everyone. I don‘t think that‘s bad to say.

Yes, that‘s great! Mae Berenice Meite also complimented her. She really has the support of the figure skating community and it doesn‘t surprise me.

Another new Avatar. I better decide on one soon. :biggrin:. She looks so happy.
 
Maybe it's because I've completely outgrown the drama, but I really can't see why anyone should care. Even though it'd be mean spirited and in poor taste if true, it's not worth the drama anyway.

On another hand, I've been listening to the Memoirs of a Geisha soundtrack and it's really cool. Almost all of the songs could be really cool for a program (if cut correctly!) My personal favorites based on my few listens are "Sayuri's Theme" and "Becoming a Geisha". What do you all think? (The soundtrack is on Spotify btw!)
 
Apparently something about how Evgenia made a mistake or something similar. I am not a Russian speaker so I don't know the words and the Twitter translation tools sometimes give the wrong impression. Anyone able to translate?

I hear something like "У Медведевой сколько?" (And Medvedeva's score is...?) And then Dudakov saying the number.
They clearly didn't know what place Liza would take and were happy for her silver. Their joy wouldn't make sense, if they already knew that Liza garanteed herself a silver medal. Please, stop false accusation, it's not helping. Thank you.
 
I don’t post much on GS at all and this is my first time on this thread, but I’ve been a long time lurker. Just wanted to stop by to comment as I got up at 5am today to watch the ladies’ long live from my hotel room on an international work trip where my NBC gold doesn’t work so it was the only way to watch it. Zhenya’s fist pump at the end of that spectacular skate was one of the most warrior moments I’ve seen in skating (it reminded me of Michelle Kwan after her Tosca LP at 2004 nats—after she also had been written off, was also injured, and had also just delivered against all odds when it counted the most—the combination of such grace with such brutal recognition of what had just been survived). Zhenya’s ferocious strength of spirit has made me such a hard core fan. It was spine tingly. I cannot wait to see where she goes from here. That she returned to the podium in the same year that she began a massive overhaul of technique is close to unmatched in ladies skating that I can think of.

She is a warrior!
