I’d prefer her to avoid the 4T to prevent an injury at this stage

Here is a video of the practice ... horrible music, if the author had used the music from her Vancouver SP it would have been perfect:



Edit: here is a much better one:



hoping for a perfect performance tomorrow, I was worried about her brief illness before the Cup of Austria, but on this video she looks very good.

I'm so happy with Liza's second place at Rostelecom SP today, wish that tomorrow she will be able to maintain that place:

THE CROWD WENT WILD AFTER LIZA'S SKATE

Kami and P/H could challenge her but IT WAS STILL VERY LOUD.

Google translation:

Elizaveta Tuktamysheva appreciated her performance at the Russian Grand Prix, where she took second place in the short program.

- Today it was very pleasant to skate here, very great support of the hall. I thought it would be harder, somehow everything went easy. If you close your eyes on the flip, everything was not so bad. I am pleased. Hopefully tomorrow will be the same mood.

- You missed the tournament (Austrian Cup - Sports.ru) due to illness. Now everything is fine?
- Somehow everything turned out unsuccessfully, I missed a whole week. Now I am still not in the most optimal form in which I would like to be. Therefore, I am positive - even though I managed to skate the program well. I still want more, more, but after the illness, of course, there was a little recession. There was a time, I managed to come to my senses.

- Are you working on quads or is the plan now to skate what you have?
- A plan for stability, to be honest, because I think this is the most important thing now in the Olympic season. You shouldn't risk it, - said Tuktamysheva on the air of Channel One.

“Today I enjoyed it. This is probably due to the cool support of the audience, which warmly welcomed all the girls. This gives strength not to get tired at the end of the program. Let's see how it turns out tomorrow. I'm in a good mood. A week ago I got sick, which affected my training and form, "- quotes the figure skater

More SP photos.




And her 3A. She has so, so much strength in her legs, to get the height and airtime needed for the jump with very little, if any, upper body assistance.

Lost in all the obviously rightful buzz around Queen Kamila, is that our Empress keeps doing her thing, and continues to distance herself from the chasers.

I've never heard anything louder in my life than the crowd after/during Liza's skate.

Elizaveta's interview at the press conference.




Google translate:

2015 World Champion Elizaveta Tuktamysheva shared her emotions after performing at the Russian Grand Prix, where she took second place.

“I was very worried when my temperature rose. I couldn't find a place for myself while I was waiting for the test. Thank God it was negative. The temperature dropped quickly. There was enough time before the Grand Prix. But I haven't fully recovered. Therefore, today it was more difficult for me. But all is well that ends well, ”said Tuktamysheva.

“Alexey Nikolaevich (Mishin) teaches me a lot of lessons on life and figure skating, our union is very strong. He always believed in me, and trust is the most important thing. I, in turn, try to do my best in gratitude to him. Thank you very much, thank you to my team. I want to give her in return all the best that I can do. Now I am focusing on the stability and quality of the elements. I would very much like to skate the program with a quadruple for personal achievement. But I'm afraid it won't be this season. And in this you need not try, you need to do, - added the skater.

About reaching the series finale:

- I am satisfied, because first of all I succeeded in my goal - to qualify for the Grand Prix finals. This is a prestigious start, I am extremely happy. It turned out not so smart to skate the program, because my legs were tired, I fought for the elements, it was obvious.
There was no wow effect, but in the second part it got better. In general, positive emotions. I try to gain confidence from start to start.

- How do you like the banner stretched by your fans on the stands?
- Very cool! My fans always surprise me in a good way.

- How did the planned content complication go?
- It seems to me that it turned out well, I performed the cascade cleanly. On the road, I immediately went to the steps, but the cascade was completed, the task was done, In principle, I coped, only the axel let down a little, - said Tuktamysheva.

I'm so glad that she was able to win the silver medal, wish her all the best for the GP final:

Liza said at her post skate press conference that she is trying to learn a quad, but it won’t be ready this year.

The press inferred that this means this isn’t her last season.

A successful trip to Canada, the premiere of a new showcase and an answer to the question whether she feels like a super-hero and a symbol of women's single figure skating - in the new episode of the Channel One video about Elizaveta Tuktamysheva.
