2025-26 Russian Nationals Pairs Free Skate

[Pairluv]

Osokina will have to be perfect to hold on to bronze. And there it went. i give skaters props for not letting the program go when you know you just threw away a medal. That is hard to deal with mentally and really goes to their professionalism. And her ending pose tells it all.

Oooh, I like this from Ekaterina Chikmareva & Matvei Ianchenkov (PRM).

Beautiful music and beautiful costumes. Katya is wearing a beautiful blue dress with gold pattern, while Matvei is wearing a shirt that matches it, and black trousers.

What were those acobatics in the middle?! It looked impressive, but not sure if it should be allowed.

But I'm sure the adagio move near the end shouldn't be allowed!

Wow! That was really good. I loved it!!!

They go into the lead of both the FS and overall.

Liza and Tema davaaaaaaaaaaai. also

 

[EdgeCall]

What is going on, Liza?

 

[AlexBreeze]

OMG. My adopted children. I don't care she had to put a foot down on that 2nd throw since I think the distance covered half the rink. Future champions. And they are adorable.

That's a bag of their throw technique unfortunately.

Anyway, safely on the podium.

This is unfortunate.

Oh dear, Osokina's jumps

But it's getting better

 

[elektra blue]

are they injured? they look tired and dispirited

 

[EdgeCall]

I think Liza's fistslam at the end was for real.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Oh lord is she crying on ice don't cry on the ice

 

[flanker]

Pity, solo jumps killed it for Osokina/Gritsaenko.

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Unfortunately, the jumps have not been working for Liza this season at all The rest was good, but those sbs jumps will hurt them too much to stay anywhere close to the podium. Poor dears. (Also, Artem just seemed over it the whole time after the 3S fall - No energy from him whatsoever.)

Yep, that wasn't a performance I think...

 

[elektra blue]

What is going on, Liza?

something is going on for sure if someone her age let some butcher do that to her face. Leavitt level of butchery (that one is also evil so it might be that too)

O/G have been looking like this past two seasons.

Is Boykova going to screw up today?

 

[Ichatdelune]

Stuffing my face with what's left of my chocolate as a preemptive anti-mental breakdown measure...

 

[flanker]

Katya was suffering for her team mates obviously...

They can work on that. Part of it is the distance. Shorter throws are typically easier to land.
