2022-23 Cup of Russia - Final - St. Petersburg

She has not made one excuse all season. No hinting at injury or stress, she hasn't pulled out of any events.

This is not a dig at Kamila at all, and it's also not meant to be a dig at you, but Kamila has very publically talked about having been injured at the start of the season and that being the reason why she didn't attempt Ultra-C's at test skates, and she also pulled out of competing at Channel One Trophy because of recovery from illness.

Katya has designed the costumes herself. She wanted to make a connection between their costumes.

Well, did it work? Stripy jacket, red polo-neck, red sleeve, green dress - I'm sticking with the WTF awards. But never mind, I've got no head for fashion.

Davai, K/A!!!!!

Pulling out of the Channel 1 Cup was a legitimate reason. If she competed and didn't do well, then complained she had been sick so couldn't prepare that would be some what of an excuse.

Test skates is just preparation for the season.

Ace!

 

[EdgeCall]

Wow! Nice one.

You wrote: "No hinting at injury or stress, she hasn't pulled out of any events."

What you personally believe to be an important event or a valid reason is not influential to the fact that yes, she has hinted at injury and yes, she did pull out of an event.

Like I said, no dig at her, I am personally very much in favour of skaters publically talking about injuries and illnesses and also very much in favour of skaters pulling out of events in order not to jeopardize their health and recovery.

They never totally cut the mustard with me, but hey, they are certainly good.

I'm especially hating the lack of pattern, but I don't think we're getting that back anytime soon in Seniors, unfortunately. Guess I'll just have to stick to Juniors for the time being.

Kirov kids

 

[LadyB]

They're so cute, they look like they should have competed yesterday.

Ok, this tune really is unnerving. With this playing every day I wonder how they survived training?

 

[Jumping_Bean]

This music is kind of annoying, but also, they at least chose something that is unique and not overused, so I will count that as a win, I guess

 

[AlexBreeze]

Yana & Timofey are slowly but improving.

i hate what they're doing with senior dance, it's like take out Axels from singles because people find them hard.

maybe they like it
