2025-26 Russian Nationals Women's Free Skate

I want Masha Mazur to get it together at a major competition at least once in her career. She has successful skates semi-regularly at minor competitions, but pressure is a wicked thing :(
It is her senior debut. If she skates slightly more stable next season she will almost definitely make nationals again. We will see plenty of her. I've liked her for a while. She can be a great artist.
 
This music that Maria Mazur (MOS) is wearing what could be described as a dirty white dress.

I love her music too!

Unfortunately, she had a few big msitakes. A fall at the start; another fall in the second half, followed by nearly tripping on landing the next element.

She looked thoroughly fed up after she finished.

Plushenko greeting her.

There was on shot in teh replays when I thought she looked like what one of my kids looked like when she was Maria's age. But, I think it was jsut the angle. BEcause she doesn't look like her now in the results area.

She goes into 4th position in both the FS and overall.

She is gutted!

The problem is that the field will be much deeper next season with Petrova, Dzepka, Kadyrova, Labutina, etc.

And, what's worse, Mazur represents Moscow that might lead to her not even making it to the stages.
 
I mean, I don't doubt that it is at least semi-stable in training, considering she has even succeeded with landing two quads in a program before, and, really, what did she actually have to lose here? 18th or 14th doesn't make that big of a difference.
I don't like that they push Rubtsova to do different things considering she had two back surgeries just recently. But I don't see any problems with Mazur. And in Mazur's case it's her nerves anyway.
 
This first group as a whole have been great. I think Russian nationals is the only nationals event where you truly see the best skaters a country has. .

She can switch to representing the Moscow Region like Lena and Yana Astashenkova, that would help.
