2024-25 Russian Grand Prix - Stage 2 - Kazan

[elektra blue]

Vladimir was always a solid skater. Without quads but with solid 3As and charisma. Never made to nationals but was a sub. Not sure what happened here.

he got inspired by the men in France

i spy i spy with my little eye...a nomination

 

[Pairluv]

Lutfullin has a bad habit of skating well in one program but not the other. I will lower my expectations and just be happy with whereever he ends up.

Dikisdze looks like a big happy kid. Which he is. He's still having fun skating and I hope that lasts him a long time.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Oh some of you haven't seen Gleb's FS.

Haha.

Ha.

 

[yume]

Vlad's hair is interesting.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Artur has restored 4S!

 

[AlexBreeze]

Not perfect but the best skate in YEARS.

 

[yume]

After the bombing streak of last season, good to see Danielan in shape. A bit of red on this costume wouldn't be bad.

 

[elektra blue]

just two mistakes and no splats oh mama's love

 

[Pairluv]

Artur reminds me so much of Kevin Aymoz: both the good and bad qualities. That was a decent skate for him.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Omg Artur

He kept it together, not perfect but so much better than I have seen from him in awhile! Nats is possibility for him again!

 

[lariko]

Oh, wow, watched SP for pairs, and they translated the scoring window. Weird, but understandable.

 

[katymay]

Oh no, that poor little girl forgot to take her guards off. Been there, done that. (one of the ice sweepers)

 

[Pairluv]

Oh some of you haven't seen Gleb's FS.

Haha.

Ha.

No and now I'm even more worried.

 

[yume]

The difference between the first and 2nd group is already showing.

 

[elektra blue]

if i had two cats i'd name them Tito and Tarantula.

 

[yume]

Is that his last year's FP?
Nice loop combo.

 

[elektra blue]

funny kid, he's got personality

 

[Mariiiiskate]

this program is just as messy as I remembered it to be, why cant they give this poor boy one good program. I still remember his programs from 21-22 season they were so good and since then they just give him a mess after a mess.

Grigory fought hard for those jumps, well done
