2022-23 Cup of Russia - Stage 2 - Sochi

[AlexBreeze]

Nikita, I won't forgive you this music cut!

 

[Amei]

"I Believe I Can Fly" - Graveyard edition. Why, Sasha, why?

This is horrific music

 

[yume]

I wonder if Sasha didn't want to wait the last stages or if the fed pressed her to skate in an early stage.
Because it's clear she's not in shape. Sasha with laboured triples?! She doesn't even look like she wants to be there.

 

[EdgeCall]

Hm, so-so. I feel Sasha has improved on flow but the quad seemed to be under. The music was just wrong, I hope they change it.

i'm back!

let me tell you being a woman sucks. i made a mess of: myself, my clothes and the pillow on my chair and i want chocolate!

 

[Amei]

Maybe this is a byproduct of me just having woken up but she looked as depressed as I felt watching it. It just felt she had no life in it

 

[YuBluByMe]

That screeching! A song that was originally uplifting turned into an emo, over-sung hot mess. Anyways, this wasn’t a good performance from Trusova at all. She was slooow and just going through the motions. She’s still injured, but she’s also had similar performances when healthy.

 

[AlexBreeze]

or if the fed pressed her to skate in an early stage.

It would be strange. They easily reassigned Tyutyunina/Bagin to the later stage, also there's a talk that they will reassign Semenenko.

Camera guy loves drama.

Made of the best cocoa. And yes, it's snuffable.

Yes, I would say a match up against Adelia is not as tense as facing Kamila, Sofia A, Maiia etc. Hope she is not too hard on herself, she knows she has plenty of support.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

as im currently sitting in a bus I haven't watched Sasha skate yet but based on your comments the music is going to drive me crazy

 

[Amei]

I really hate these costumes with the matching colored tights

 

[Paulipau]

Music is awful and I'm not sure about the choreography, it wasn't dynamic and seemed not to match the music.

She went for the 4Lz tho, means that she still has it. In a form like that it is quite impressive, if I remember correctly Valieva didn't go for any ultra Cs last week?

 

[EVAMARIA]

I really liked täSashas SP and was hoping the FP would be great. I thought it would be a completely different version of I believe I can fly so nope don't like the FP.
Sascha clearly looks like she is not ready, injured?

Valieva fell on 4T<.

I said last week that Olga (or their new designer if they have one) has a new trend. Petrosyan has basically the same costume than Akatieva.

 

[elektra blue]

i'll have what Daniil had when he picked this music

 

[EVAMARIA]

I think Sasha made 4 lutz in the warm up.

 

[Jumping_Bean]

She did a 4Lz+3T in warm-up, I think, so a shame it didn't work out in the program itself.
