Alexandra Trusova

It was 1st time, seems so, Sasha did three quads and all three were landed. 4Lz, 4T3T, 4T...
Crashed in a backloged combo, made a small error in another one, but could we forgive her?



Maybe she cannot do 3-3 combos anymore? Overrotates here and there...

It seemed to me, on this occasion Aleksandra lost herself a little and got carried away by the adrenaline rush. I thought she just wanted to land those 3 quad and didn't care about the rest, and to judge by #TeamTurberidzeForProgress' reaction at the boarding, they weren't mad at her (for this one occasion ;-)

Let's hope she'll find the time to put the finishing touches to her Triksel before the World Championships, which she does very well in the harness, but still isn't comfortable to do them without this added security. Triksels require even a fearless girl like Aleksandra to overcome a certain mental barrier, but once she's mastered this equally impressive element, she will be Unstoppable, Untouchable, Unbeatable indeed.
 
From youtube comments:

Yuzu thinks: i wish i had her lutz
Shoma thinks: i wish i had her cantilever
Nathan thinks: I'm happy she is not a boy

:biggrin:
 
Impressive performances for Sasha in test skates. Great programs for her. But here's what killed me , in addition to three magnificent quads, this is a sequence of steps SP. This is some kind of madness, how is it even possible at such a crazy pace. :dbana:
I waiting to see these programs with real dresses. I hope for new masterpieces from Olga Ryabenko.
 
Long Olga Yermolina interview with Aleksandra (and Tina) from Test Skates: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTyG2tSQBiM

Unfortunately, Olga' questions are difficult for to hear, Aleksandra has the microsphone pinned to her cyber suit, Tina is shivering in Aleksandra's bare arms ;-)

Laughing about her fall on the Lutz-Rittberger, but otherwise satisfied over her FP.
Cannot tell about some ... new element but is working on improving it.
She is pleased with both her programs and hopes the spectators liked them. Wouldn't divulge into her new dress, it will be premiered in Bratislava.

LOL, she is not altogether serious in this interview, evading some questions about GoT (?) Playing with Tina's tiny pawn :-)

She spent her holidays in Egypt, Italy and Spain, riding the attractions in some park there. Tina was taken along and Aleksandra basked herself in the sun on a beach.
She almost dropped Tina to show she is dressed in a kimono that was gifted to Aleksandra in Japan. This is the summer kimono, she also has a matching winter one. There is already a whole cupboard with Tina's costumes.

I gather in Novogorsk, Sasha's middle brother picked up a kitten from a litter of four and demanded they'd bring it home. Now the boy's room is out of bounds for Tina because of the kitten, that is named Khloe ;-)

She wishes for clean skating runs and to show all she is capable of. She was already looking forwards to her first senior season. Starting in Bratislava, Japan Open and the Grand Prix after that.
 
Amazing! Mighty! Wonderful! Only one mistake that she is going to fix but there is no reason to be alarmed. Her quads are more consistent. Maybe that 3 axel will be ready for the WC. Only Nathan Chen is competition for her :laugh:
 
From her recent interview after the TestSkates.

- We made a program with more stepseqs so the program constist of not jumps only. One of quads is done with a complex entry.
- I don't know why 3Lz3Lo failed. Usually it's stable. Last year I crashed it only once.
- I'm going for more complex programs. Will do my best to learn new jumps.

Yeah, nobody impressed. This LP clearly needs more jumps.


IMHO whould she succeed with 3Ax (one is SP, one to swap 2Ax in LP) and it's enough to slice nice every pretender.

EDIT: it was mentioned by Russian sport site Sasha did train her 3Ax in Novogorsk. No achievent ever reported but who knows.

:laugh2: ... well in the mean while ... she can skate in the men's free ...

Nope. She needs two more jumps like 4F and 3Ax, ability to backlog a 4x3x combo and to persuade the Board be nice. Tame them.

Usually the higher her technical marks the lower her PCS. The Board totally dislikes her ability to organize "Pogrom in a Kindergarten".

P.S. And no girl yet did SP with quads.

Quads aren't allowed in ladies SP.

This is the point. No girl/lady tried to create an SP with quads as no Board would approve.
Thus we cannot compare male and female skating directly. Different limitations.

You cannot directly compare Formula 1 and Formula E.
