2020-21 Russian Nationals: Ladies' Free Skate

[AlimaAsh]

Anna is such a strong young woman. That performance made me emotional. She showed such determination and grit to come here, don’t get overcome by nerves and perform like this. I hope that she did not overstrain herself way past her limit, however, the strength of spirit she showed here is simply inspiring.

Poor Daria. Not her fault she had to follow all this.

 

[Novalis]

I think Anna should withdraw

 

[AlimaAsh]

I am proud of Dasha for delivering her very best here. She is so strong as well and I am happy that she delivered such a good skate.

 

[P44]

That was an amazing performance but 153 with those Lz ?

 

[Beckaboomer]

Wow! What a bunch of competitors! It was insane to see so many clean, lovely performances in a row.

I really dislike Kamila’s free skate but she was still so good. Anna and Sasha were my faves and I’m glad Sasha bounced back to the podium at least. Anna looked a little better today stamina-wise.

And I hope this ends the propaganda of the heartless, emotionless, coach that takes pride in hurting their skaters.

Will Ted ever be able to commentate on anything but RusNats again, and not feel completely underwhelmed?

My favorite Ted moment was when he said "Will this be enough to win? Don't know. Don't care."

Oh dear, I feel as if I'd skated these past four hours myself, I'll go and take a shower now

Anna as Champion is wonderful, Trusova in third says: "I haven't gone away, you know?"
Sad for Liza,but this was just a force of nature.

Shush, Eteri speaking!

Anya has been my favourite since she appeared in juniors. Her innate musicality multiplied by her strong technical elements, intelligence, education, tact and sweetness are simply irresistible. Whatever the edge analysts among fans were saying and will be saying, she is phenomenal. I wish her to keep all of at least a large part of her abilities as she is growing.

And now imagine Kostornaya had been here as well. With her 3A restored.

Kamila, Daria, and Maiia get 2nd, 4th, and 5th in their first Russian senior nationals as juniors and 14!! They all did amazingly!!

Look, I love Liza, more than ever after today, but even at her best she can’t match this firepower. It’s ok, she showed who she is today.

Awww, Anna is still close to tears of joy, and Danny G. too, methinks.

 

[LadyB]

Go, Dudakov, you've deserved your fag now!

I think Anna should withdraw

Hey now after the way she was exhausted after yesterday’s short, it was hard to tell if she was going to make it today. Her health was still at risk competing today though. She did great but that also shouldn’t deviate from the fact that her health should be most important.
