Interesting draw! Alina at #7, Evgenia finishing off the event. I'll be very interested to see how PCS roll out

Cactus Stasya K, Fairy Nastya G and Diva Nastya T in the final group? Medvedeva skating last, to Tosca, for ultimate dramatic effect? Here for it

Just a question: Why is Stasya a cactus?

Just a question: Why is Stasya a cactus?

A cactus is a skater who is lovely, but inevitably hurts you, just like the plant

Just a question: Why is Stasya a cactus?

Because she frequently underperforms — in the same way Marin Honda is many posters’ favourite cactus. It’s become the new go-to term for the skater you love but who returns your embrace with prickly feelings of disappointment.

Thank you!

It‘s actually a good go-to term. Marin as well as Stasya have so much potential but somehow it never fully works out for them in competition. Let‘s hope that this time it does. Misha Kolyada would count as the ultimate cactus then, I guess...

Yes, Valentina is quite the horticulturist.

Is Vasilieva the one we saw on the JGP? With only one assignment?
ETA yes, and her SP is apparently to “I Put a Spell on You”

Zhenya please don't bomb, BE the bomb!

 

[LynsJ]

If I was any more on the edge of my seat waiting for this short i would be face planting the floor. [emoji23]

 

[Sabrina]

I need some good samaritans as tomorrow I doubt I am able to watch the ladies. Maybe somebody manages to record at least the big guns.
Good luck ladies!

 

[Spirals for Miles]

What? No, I totally forgot! I think she has a different arrangement though. Seemed kind of "rock"-ish at the JGP.

 

[Hyena]

Is the drama worth waking up at 3am for, before working a full day while recovering from a cold and trying to pack to move the very next day?

Maybe

 

[uffda]

Yes, Valentina is quite the horticulturist.

Hats off, that made me laugh for solid 10 minutes!

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

So many favorites here to wish good luck to

But.....I think my underdogs need a little extra love

Good Luck to Gubanova and Tarakanova!! Give it all you’ve got !!

 

[DSQ]

I hope everyone does their best. I hope the media restrains itself if the results aren’t as expected.

Good luck! Four hours to go！

 

[Azikin]

Wishing for podium sweep by Eteri juniors!

 

[malya]

Praying for fair and decent scores for Sofia!

 

[daphna]

Can anyone update on Pogorilaya? she has totally vanished, it seems.

 

[Fluture]

Does anyone have a link to a VPN converter for me? I know somebody posted in the Russian ladies thread yesterday but it seems it was deleted (or maybe I just can't find it lol)
