[EdgeCall]

Nice loop.

did my son just crown himself? am i empress mother now?

Yes, he skates to the old Russian anthem "God save the Tzar'" not sure why. Could be a historic biopic in Russia?

 

[niks]

Makar was overall ok, a bit of a mixed bag jump-wise, some quite good and some just very short out of falling. I've always liked his sitting spin with his back upright. He ran out of the strength mid-program and finished way behind the music and barely holding there.

On a second view though, the whole costume and not just the vest needs reconsideration

 

[flanker]

Matvei is a general who wins but not without heavy losses.

 

[Mathematician]

Are they really gonna keep that ChSq on plus...

 

[elektra blue]

what movie is this?

No it's not based on a biopic. He just wanted to portray someone from history as Pushkin SP was very successful.

 

[EdgeCall]

Well, Captain Vetlugin bravely joined the battle and fought with courage. But in the end he fell. Twice.

 

[flanker]

what movie is this?

I think it's a TV series about Ekaterina Velikaya.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Soloviov: Who might answer the question, what's happening to Matvei Vetlugin?

 

[lariko]

No it's not based on a biopic. He just wanted to portray someone from history as Pushkin SP was very successful.

Okay. Which one? The costuming makes me think Alexander I.

 

[Jontor]

I'm always so nervous when Vetlugin skates...

 

[Pairluv]

There is so much to like about Vetlugin. I really hope to see him skate two clean programs sometime before he retires.

 

[Mathematician]

Okay. Which one? The costuming makes me think Alexander I.

[flanker]

No rolling pin when he comes home?

No, but also no dessert.

 

[EdgeCall]

Maybe he can take advice from Trusova regarding the hair ...

 

[elektra blue]

Vetlugin who is vying with Grassl for the daring in his choice of imagery this season.

and both are my sons, coincidence?

Yes, he skates to the old Russian anthem "God save the Tzar'" not sure why. Could be a historic biopic in Russia?

it looks like it's not despite the voiceovers

No it's not based on a biopic. He just wanted to portray someone from history as Pushkin SP was very successful.

since he wants to be the tzar i suggest Aleksandr I
