Her standard camel isn't that great, nor are her uprights.
Her donut, OTOH, is great.

I think Maiia might have withdrawn from the prizes of tchaikovsky competition. She's not on the entry list anymore (https://www.fsrussia.ru/files/docs/competitons/2021/tchaikovsky_prizes2021_participants.pdf).

Yes, there was some wild speculation that Alyona won't participate in the First Channel Team event and will be replaced by Maiia. Only rumours, mind you!

For those of you who complain about flexibility just watch Anna's jumps in slow motion, you will need an exorcist after that.

For Sofya Akatyeva's 3A and 4T, I'm trying to find...
• The oldest available footage of her landing each jump. Could be from practice or competition.
• The oldest available footage of her landing each jump in competition.
• The oldest available footage of her landing each jump in competition without any calls and with non-negative GOE.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Also, just to confirm, I know we've seen her land 4S in practice, but she hasn't yet attempted it in competition, right?

The oldest landed ones should be from 2019 spring / summer during practice, right? Not sure if the originals are around, though.

TT Sofia seems to have the total package.
There are probably lots of videos on YouTube of her doing triple axels and quads.. Fan fest too Doug.
Russian nationals from the junior starts tomorrow so I'm surprised we haven't seen any Report yet. Edwin where are you? He always comes up with the goods for the juniors or seniors.
Yes, she has withdrawn. A fan on Instagram noticed and messaged her asking if she was alright, and she said she's fine and we'll see her at the Cup of Russia Final. I'll try to find the post, but no guarantees - I didn't save it when I saw it.
Edit: found it, she says she's training as usual and everything

Weirdly, the Fan Fest skips from January 2019 to July 2020 with no posts in between, so it lacks any good information as to what I'm looking for...
Sofia Akateva
Is Akatyeva's age group and rank qualified for Russian Junior National Championships, or is the other competition "Cup of Moscow" the qualifier for that? I suppose Akatyeva's rank "perviy sportivniy" is the highest rank in her age group. She's still too young for that. Actually, you need to be...
No idea why this happened. Someone mentions it was locked?

Yes, the mods made the call that Fanfest threads wouldn't be available for skaters under the age of 13.

Will you be rooting most for Veronika?
It's the only important Junior competition of the season and it will be better than a junior World Championship.

It's because the fanfest was locked down due to the politics "no FF untill the skater is 13".Weirdly, the Fan Fest skips from January 2019 to July 2020 with no posts in between, so it lacks any good information as to what I'm looking for...

You're welcome!
I feel terrible because I always forget about Veronika Z and then I see her name and remember
I hope she has a great FS and lands her jumps, the last time I saw her it was a bit rough. (She was still recovering from Corona I think?)I'm hoping Adeliya P. has an awesome competition, I like her style a lot, she's so fast I think she might be the "Russian Missile"
Not sure how much of the ladies I'll get to watch due to time zone differences, but I'll get to see some of it.

Speaking of Veronika, we have not yet seen her attempt her 4S or 4Lz in competition yet, right?

Adelina seems to be the sleeper. She always brings it and is always ready to strike. This is a big stage for her and all the girls because this is the biggest Junior competition of the year In some ways it's even greater than Junior worlds would be Because it has more Russian girls in it obviously. Russia may have the top five or six junior girls in the world.
