2025-26 Russian Nationals Pairs Short Program

[Mathematician]

Great, looks like I got back just in time.

 

[elektra blue]

Tarasova bonsai!

It would be a sad end of the best pair that existed till now.

Definitely the best, but I don't think there's any future now Mishina has focused on her studies, I think she has got engaged, probably moved on and sees Galliamov as a little immature.

But I think people are harsh on him, I'm not sure any of their problems are his fault at all.

I think any female partner would want to work with him in an instant.

 

[Pairluv]

It looks like Boi/Koz went back to Kill Bill.

 

[EdgeCall]

Little stumble by Nastya but great skate!

 

[freedomlover]

Twizzles are not to be underestimated, it seems.

 

[AlexBreeze]

It looks like Boi/Koz went back to Kill Bill.

They skated it all season. She just changed her costume.

 

[Mathematician]

I fell in love with M/E lifts first time I saw them.

Are they going to give a reduction for the stumble or not?

 

[Jumping_Bean]

A little slow with the free leg on the throw, but a great skate otherwise. I'm not sure they quite have the intensity needed for this music, but much better than at the very start of the season. Probably about on par with their performances at the two RGP stages.

 

[elektra blue]

Tarantino is here with M/E but he should be with Sasha and Dima for obvious reasons

 

[EdgeCall]

I fell in love with M/E lifts first time I saw them.

Are they going to give a reduction for the stumble or not?

Only in GOE, if at all.

 

[flanker]

Solid delivery by bonsai Tarasova/Evgeniev, but IMO some pairs from previous group were better. Commentators talk about UR on Salchow.

 

[Mathematician]

Wow steps finished with green.

Only in GOE, it at all.

Yes, I meant in GOE. They did not go red. I'm quite surprised.

Tarasova bonsai!

You can still see it, but as Nastya is getting older, she is getting less like Zhenya.

I loved the music that Anastasia Mukhortova & Dmitry Evgenyev (MOS) were skating to.

Not sure that he heart cut-out on the back of Nastya's dress works. It jsut looks strange.

But, although it was not a perfect skate, it was still good!

They go into 3rd position.

Ooooh. Did you see Nastya's face? She is not a happy bunny!

[elektra blue]

[EdgeCall]

Arrrgh

 

[flanker]

Ouch, such a pity...

 

[freedomlover]

hard fall, damn.she stood up quick!

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Noooo

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

And I am afraid that this is where I have to leave you to eat.

I'll pause the YouTube stream, and hope it still plays when I come back.

All the best to the remaining three partnerships.
