Merited trainer of Russia Inna Goncharenko gave her opinion on yesterday's short program:
“ After I found out that Anya Shcherbakova had withdrawn due to illness, I had a strange premonition, I became sad. It often happens that when one of the leaders is removed, the rest of the top participants seem to lose some of their courage, how many cases like that were seen in the men's skating. It would seem it is like - go out and win, but only these thoughts do not leave you and eventually lead to mistakes, as happened with Trusova and Tuktamysheva "
“ Sasha has matured all by herself and has become a real adolescent, despite the fact that last season she was still a real child. I won't argue whether she is moving up or not, because so many people, so many opinions, but she is definitely developing! Before that, much was said about the fact that she lacks some kind of femininity, lyricism, trepidation, that in her programs Trusova is a more of a militant conqueror.
In her current program Sasha learn, tries, every time she feels the program better and better. As a result, this program also develops her, a young athlete should always move forward in all directions, because where else to go? "
“ It seems to me that Trusova just burned out, because she is constantly chasing this jump. She needs to let go of this situation a little, only when the jump is completely ready, insert it into the program. I've already watched the competition: she is a little fussy about it, the moment has not yet come to jump it, but she is already doing it, then the strange arrangement of the element ...
Her coach, of course, knows better, but I have a feeling that the element is not ready, and Sasha takes it on, wants to do it on character and on emotions. And then everything coincided, racing after jumps plus the final start number. As soon as Trusova begins to treat the triple Axel calmly, like her other jumps, the quadruples, she will definitely do it at competitions. "
“ It all depends on how often Tuktamysheva 'gets' this quadruple jump in training. She has the most experienced coach who knows best how to best approach the difficult elements. It is not for nothing that this jump is not yet under her command.
It is more important for Lisa to do three triple Axels in two programs. She should not jump over her head, it is better to skate the program in the mood, cleanly perform her high Lutz. That would be the real Lisa.
By the way, she's a great fellow, she worked on the spins, the levels went up, more interesting positions appeared, it's not easy - to pull a Biellmann after a back injury "
