2020 Cup of Russia: Stage II

[flanker]

Of course the stream has to do problems precisely when Liza skates.

I guess it was good, but I can't say for sure

Another superb routine from a very young skater, smiling all the time, well done Liza Berestovskaya
Perhaps my comments lag a little but the restream is behind the official broadcast which is often unwatchable.

Again, the bonus marks decide the score between two superb routines from Muravyova and Berestovskaya.

Really? I didn't see anything..

 

[EdgeCall]

Ah, Tchaikovsky! I am puzzled about what arouses me more, the (assumable) beauty of Liza's program or the ugly mess the stream made of it.

 

[readernick]

What I saw looked cute and well done. I didn't see much.

 

[flanker]

Please, at least the replays...

 

[elektra blue]

stop glitching stream! or i send you to Samarin's closet!

 

[Azikin]

Good job taking the lead.

 

[flanker]

Very close, it will be a battle in the free skate. Love Liza anyway

I think the bigger problem is the reception on the international level. While you are expected to skate to Swan Lake, Scheherezade etc., the modern russian music is not what people are used to hear.

If the audience can listen to the same 2 french ballads every season although they do not understand a word and can listen to US 80s rock music on ice, they can listen to Russian pop music. I wish people would be brave enough to skate to music from different countries and not just skate to the same English, french, spanish, italian songs. I am still waiting for the day when people are brave enough to skate to German musicals, we have some really great ones with beautiful ballads that are Olympics worthy.

Unfortunately, cause it’s ace!

yeah! Actually I really liked Samarin's Polyushe Polye (pardon spelling) and Evgeny Semenenko's SP (whatever that was, something like Man From No City). Wish the girls would pick more.

Buble alert...

 

[Azikin]

It's OK now, LOL... there's something about this year....

And I have a secret dream, where a czech figure skating lady (or any other lady) will skate to Threee Wishes for Cinderella:

Congrats to the last lady, Anastasia Samofalova, to a solid skate.
