2025-26 Russian Grand Prix Final

[AlexBreeze]

Not sure what happened to Vlad this season.

I blamed the 4F in the SP but they ditched it (and he had a clean SP right after doing it!)

They say he had an injury at Nats, but his runthrough there was clean. At the jumping comp his shape looked fine, too.

Expectations after winning last Nats? It had happened to him before the juniors.

 

[LadyB]

Wow - that was ace!

 

[EdgeCall]

Wow!

What a regal skate. Pity that Nikolay doesn't have the stamina to maintain the level to the very end.

Finally Yagudin said something nice....

 

[LadyB]

Congrats to the podium. I'm glad that Zhenya came second.

Yes, but that just a tiny detail...

 

[EdgeCall]

A GPF with highs and lows, but overall - quite good.

 

[Fetinia]

This group of men ( with sad exception of Vlad) rehabilitated this day after awful women skates and the first group.

Yes, great group.

I hope they give Grisha national team for this.

 

[Fetinia]

Has Petr lost lots of weight since last season?

 

[AlexBreeze]

Tech panel was much more kind in men's event (I don't mean Gumennik, he got kinda many calls).

Zhenya had nothing rewached, Kolya has one flip edge calls and one lutz edge call (so others flips and lutzes were better?).

Some suspicious rotations not rewatched, too.

For comparison, Kulikova had an e on her flip.

Has Petr lost lots of weight since last season?

Yes, this is normal in figure skating and some other sports. When preparing for events like the Olympics, you want to be in the best possible shape.
