Just curious -- is there anyone working on this? I can't think of anyone working on the 3ATh either since Savchenko / Massot.
Here's an 18-second spiral, held long enough to show how this kind of move gained the name "spiral" based on the shape it draws on the ice
None to my knowledge, but Kostornaia has been known to land 3A in the past and was recently filmed practising one off-ice. She and Georgy have been competing in the Cup (stage 2).
The only fed that has a large enough skating audience for such competitions in my mind would be Japan. They do have Japan Open every year and World Team Trophy every 2 years, however it would be nice to see some of the skaters (who perhaps aren't going to Worlds) participate in other broadcast/streamed competitions post Nationals.
(And then we'd be able to watch Nobu's comeback!

Khabibulina/Knyazhuk. I asked about Kostornaya but her injuries don't let her land even 2A pain-free, unfortunately.
I can't believe Kostornaia is continuing in pairs I would have thought the throws put far more forces through her body than a mere 2A. Even the stats I posted a few days ago back that up. Pairs women have a disproportionate number of stress fractures much more than women in singles.

Are they working on SBS 3A or 3ATh?
