I just wanted to catch up with the ladies on yesterday's stream, but it's already blocked. However, this youtube channel is a real treasure trove when it comes to local Russian competitions: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9wSkyKcSY8tV-7Uts8GDow/videos
So I could watch Zinina at least.

Love me a funny judge!

Looking forward to seeing Alexandra Finokhina and her partner Gleb Chernyshev pioneering the Mozer Team Ice Dance unit.

On the one hand, Junior and Senior pairs should be a feast for me with 1 Klimov and 4 Mozer Teams , but on the other hand, it is the most inconvenient time to watch it workwise...
I'll do my best, though.

The sound is so wonky, I feel like on a trip. This wasn't the case yesterday.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Oh boo it totally is. It sounds like we're underwater.

Do not like.

BTW thanks for cheering on Kirill S for me! Although I did gasp at the 3A fall, poor Kirill They have indeed changed his 3A entrance and I'm not sure why. It's true he went in on a very deep edge but it seemed to work for him.

Ted Barton said it was a weird entry, but never explained why.

I was a fan of it, it looked spectacular.

Facts!

I mean I assume they have a reason for it...it'd just be good to know what it was. Maybe it won't work when he grows taller or something.

I wonder what's wrong with the music... did they put the red plug and the white plug in the wrong sockets? Do they even use that kind of cable anymore?

In other news I only recognise one name in this segment Andrei Rud - I'm not sure why I know him though.

Because he was from Moskvich!
From Moskvich to Mozer Team - that's the perfect combo to me

Was he a singles skater?

I seem to remember vaguely that he was going to skate with Liza O. Or is my brain making up stuff?

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

You can take the skater out of Moskvich, but you can never take Moskvich out of the skater!

Same goes for Mozer Team.
and yes @anonymoose_au , he skated with Osokina.

So it says on the homepage, yes.

I wonder why? not that im not happy to get Lev vs Arseny showdown no.4 in boys but it would have been nice to see more junior boys. I remember Mozalev won the last one with Tema K making the podium.

That's a nice start to the pairs day with Chernyshova/Rud in first and Khmelkova/Davletgareev in third.
K/D is the very first pairing either of them has ever been in.

I really liked Rud in singles even tho he wasn't that successful so im really looking forward for him in pairs!

 

[LadyB]

Very interesting and not entirely unpleasant version of Chandelier.
Good on ya, Agniya and Vladimir!!!

Davai, P/P!!!!

 

[LadyB]

I liked Cheremnykh/Butenko throughout this season - even though I detest the warhorse music.
