Same with me [emoji23]That's so cute: Their feet/skates kinda scare me for some reason though [emoji23]

Three years ago. Going to the airport. Flight to Delhi. Then we move to Kathmandu.
Just started out of my friend's yard... A little touched someone else's car. Signaling. An old man wants to see what's wrong with his car, then a woman... then some other people ..... then Sasha Trusova. We crashed Sasha's grandfather's car. Sasha lives in the same house with my friend.
This year, on October 30, after returning from Sikkim, I stopped at this house, wanted to give tea from Darjeeling to my friend. Oh, my God.. I meet Sasha again. Ask her When 3A? Answer... Initially, 4F, want 5 quads in FS.
I bring this post from Russian Ladies thread because I think is most appropriate discuss here in Sasha's fanfest. That thread is worse than a TV reality show.
I hope she puts that 4F in the second part of her program as the final jump, to get the 10 % bonus score.
P.S. Nord Stream 2: If you meet Sasha one more time in the future, Please!!! tell her she has a die hard fan in American Continent who watches all her events and roots for her everytime and hopes she wins the Beijing Olympic Games.
I don't really believe in this "cool story" but I would be very happy if Sasha replaced 4S to 4F at the Cup of Russia. It's not a big risk for the result (as we have seen in Canada, she can win even with fall), and the best option to try a new jump. Then will begin competitions where she has no right to make a mistake.I hope she puts that 4F in the second part of her program as the final jump, to get the 10 % bonus score.

The situation is still says: no right for more than one mistake...
But yes, apparently she may relay on her 4T being stable enough to concentrate on two other quads. If her Lutz is having 75+% S/R, it's OK to attempt Flip.
Sasha mentioned the biggest problem with multi-Q layout is the difficulties in preparation time, where she has to immediately adjust to three different jumps and there is not enough time. If she feels sure with Toe-loop, she will be in time.
Yes, trading Salchow to Flip would significantly raise her BV.
I think that if Sasha is super confident in her 4T, she can load both of her 4T combos and try 4F, 4Lz, 4S at the beginning of the program.
I don't think Sasha will take that risk this weekend. FS is already very strong at the moment. And she never did it without mistakes. I think that with a successful skating she can change the last 3Lz to 4Lz. The main work certainly is fought with 3A. Flip already learned and will added after 3A. 3A now more important.
P/S How much is 5T?
Alexandra currently passed the 100k mark in Instagram followers... beating Eteri.
Which I find interesting because I remember her being behind Eteri just a few days ago and then I stopped paying attention and stumbled on it today.
I figured out what happened, her oniceperspectives video was reposted to a couple of big instagram accounts. I wish I was paying attention when this happened, but I think she netted at least a thousand followers because of that video.... I wouldn't be surprised if it was 2-3 thousand new followers.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B4xOvtwlrAt/ <--- posted on an account with 134k followers a couple hours ago... only 16k views now but will probably get at least 50k.

I think story with Yuzuru is the main reason for this growth of followers. For example, a video report about parallel jump has more than 2 million views and has already become the most popular video with Sasha on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3u-jCUlp6A
Sasha crashed may be 5 or 6 times today but didn't leave the rink before ensuring all her quads and combos are ok.
4S failed twice, landed twice or trice.
4Lz same.
3Lz-3Lo failed once, landed.
4T-3T and 4T-1Eu-3S landed once.
Her usual activity... she attempted more than ten quads in total. Most of those were OK.
The problem is the 4S, the 4Lz does not fail when jump alone, it fails to join it to 4S, the same as 3Lz3Lo fall inside program. But he was in a good mood, in the end he even stayed part of the 2nd group time to make turns and say goodbye, and obviously the camera did not take off of she.
I wish she would take the 4S out. She doesn't need it, and it is one quad too much.
