Russian Senior Test Skates 2022

[Paz]

Will Russia even be allowed to compete internationally in the run-up to the next Olympics?
This is just a sad curiosity show.

 

[Riv]

It's a very cathartic way to express her trauma. Nothing wrong in that.

They chose to exploit a freaking doping case. That Kamila Valieva was most likely guilty of, as her recent B sample suggests.
How is this not wrong.

 

[LadyB]

just don't look it's not for you

 

[YuBluByMe]

I’m excited to see Tuktamysheva’s free again. I really liked it at that St.Petersburg thingie.

 

[Baron Vladimir]

It would be cathartic if it was done in private, or maybe as an exhibition skate. Not as a competitive skate.

Especially not when Kamila is clearly still extremely upset about the situation.

If you read psychology, you would know that is exactly the point of calling something cathartic - 'providing psychological relief through the open expression of strong emotions'. And some of modern therapies are actually asking to express those emotions in a 'public space', because it has better efect.

Someone should say to Samodelkina's stylist that see-through fabrics aren't the only way to look mature. This costume and the SP one are borderline.

The director found some Anna fans I miss her

But it's a lie! Eteri and her shonky as Hell doctor drugged Kamila and they've GASLIGHTED her.

If she was in another coaching team doing a program about her betrayal that would be one thing.

But this team...they screwed with her health, left her alone to face the press, browbeated her when she fell apart.

It's like watching an abused person grovel in front of their abuser.

It's horrible.

Muravyeva's costume is giving, if i understand the theme...

 

[Caliban]

Can someone translate what Kamila said in the interview?

"The main thing was to carry your story through the program. I think it succeeded.

>We worked on the production with Daniil Markovich [Gleichengauz] and Eteri Georgievna [Tutberidze], as usual. They asked in advance if I wanted to touch this topic. It can and should be lived. I agreed.

>I am very glad that so many people have come to support us today. I'm glad I could touch them.

>When I first listened to the words and music, I couldn't hold back my tears. How many times I rolled the program in training, there were no such emotions. When I came out now, it was as if they had dipped me in there again, tears were coming, but I need to roll. There was a tremor, but I'm glad that I was able to show it to people.

>Why didn't I have enough faith at the Olympics? I'll keep that for myself. This is my interpretation.

>For me, the main thing now is not the execution of the elements. After the Olympic season, I'm ready for anything.

>The goal was to show the program, not to fall off the jumps. I prepared for the season as best I could. In general, I am happy with the skate.

>Hood — it is clear what the reference is. The dress itself was created more by Eteri Georgievna. I told them what details need to be changed. In general, it will be finalized"

And that's just your personal opinion which has nothing to do with psychology as a science

 

[YuBluByMe]

Well, I definitely don’t like the music and the cut, but Muravieva can sell it. I think this program will grow on me.

Ah yes, public space = competitive setting, exposed to (social) media

I doubt any psychologist would call this healthy catharsis.

 

[Paz]

Could they junk-up the jackets any more?

 

[YuBluByMe]

Petrosian looks like a mini Anne Hathaway. Let’s go little lady!

 

[LadyB]

I love young Adelia!!! Udachi!

 

[Arwen17]

I like Sofia M.'s dress a lot for the FS, but not the SP. But I hate all of the music she's been given for FS and SP.

And you believe the story about the glass? I'd buy it if Kamila had gone directly to the doctor and disclosed it. Which is what one would do if it was an accident. It was HEART medicine. If I accidentally injested that I'd be so scared I'd go to the hospital.

No, not only did Eteri drug her, she left Kamila scrambling for a story which involved throwing her own grandfather under the bus.

Eteri is an actual psychopath and she's just ruined this entire event for me.

 

[Baron Vladimir]

Ah yes, public space = competitive setting, in (social) media

I doubt any psychologist would call this healthy catharsis.

From what i know they are not allowed to compete internationally this year. And 'competitive setting' is professional skaters everyday life, its theirs public space. The same way Gabby talked about her issues, i don't see why Kamila shouldn't, in any way she want.
