Alina Zagitova looks like twin of Liza Nugumanova there... Is it Zagitova, really?

Hey you're right...I'm pretty sure that is Liza N there.
Old school throwback in that photo there. Imagine if they really were the top skaters at Russian Nats 2020, the world would probably implode!

Well it would be an interesting change of pace, imo would definitely make the next season interesting [emoji23][emoji23]

nope. thats definitely Zags.
My guess it is Russian Nationals 2017. Fun fact: that was he only time when Medvedeva beat Zagitova.
Rus Nats 2017. Zhenya - gold, Alina - silver, Maria Sotskova - bronze. Alina technically was not on the senior level yet, but even then Alina already had higher BV and TES than anyone there at Rus Nats (and in the whole world?). Alina won in TES total by approximately 1 point - she had a very high difficulty and her BV overall was higher by 4 points than Med, although Zhenya was receiving slightly bigger +GOE points back then. But Medvedeva won by 12 points overall - that's how higher her PCS were that time (13+ points higher than Zagitova back then).
That was the only competition when Meds placed higher than Zags, courtesy of a higher PCS. TAT was excited and called her proudly on national tv live: "that's our ticking bomb for Olympics 2018". How ironically right on the money she were back then. Zags didnt make the team for Worlds 2017 because of she was only 14 yo back then. But she went to Juniors and won there. Next season Zagitova became senoir and was unbeatable all the way till Milan's meltdown.

Time flies. It really makes me nostalgic. I am glad that Evgenia and Alina are still holding on and at the same time I am excited for the new generation.

It looks like Alina and Liza Nugumanova combined. The smile looks like Laina, but the nose looks like Liza. Wow, the two girls actually looked so alike during the 16-17 season!

I was NOT expecting that...holy sht.
Be right back, I'm going to call everyone who said juniors wouldn't be impressive after the 3A leaves and ask them to eat their words.

Not to be the party crashes here, but let's wait until she jumps it in a competition as we have seen with Anna its something else to jump in in practice or to jump it in competitions

WOW indeed! It seems that the number of Eteri students who have a quad will actually soon be higher than those who don't

Isn't that amazing... how is she able to motivate them and make them all jump quads?
Not only Kamila has a very mature skating for her age, but also a quad now. Watch out Alysa, 3A-s are definitely not enough to beat Kamila!

Wow, I don’t know why but I didn’t expect quads from Kamila and yet there it is. I already thought she was a very strong contender for gold in Beijing but now, and I know it sounds ridiculous to say it so early, I feel almost certain she’ll win. She’ll be just like Alina in PC, except with quads.

Alysa has a Quad Lutz. She does not only have her 3A
