2020 Cup of Russia: Stage II

[anonymoose_au]

The last time I was this excited to see some quads from Sasha Trusova I was sitting right by the ice!

Oh no, fall to You Raise Me Up...

You've seen Sasha skate in real life?! What's that like? Do you get a different impression of her?

I appreciate modesty as much as the next girl. (really more than the next girl... I dress like a prude), but if you are going to cover yourself up... shouldn't it be with attractive material and patterns... not whatever that is...

Indeed! Zahra Lari from UAE always looks nice and she wears a head covering as well.

How many times will Tarasova repeat "potresayush sa"...

What does it mean?

Oh dear, that would mean men's and ladies' was won by a Plushy skater. I won't venture into the RLT in the next days....

Oh dear it could get heated! Not gonna lie though, I'm very happy the Academy is getting such good results, Plushy aside when people poo-poo it they're also insulting the hardworking coaches who work there like Alexander Volkov.

what does it even mean? i like more my interpretation (the blood flowing over Verona)

I'm not sure you're too far off. I'm sure there was an interview where Plushy said the program supposed to invoke the emotions of Romeo and Juliet. I noticed Daria's choreo was Juliet inspired, she even stabbed herself at the end!

The introduction was so long because the interviewer consoled Kamila. To cheer her up and to support her, he first read to her some full of delight and admiration comments from fans about her short program.

Awww that's so sweet of him! I hope it cheered her up, her Free was really rough

I'm really surprised and happy Sasha managed to win! I wasn't hopeful at all, but she sure showed me. Never doubt the Russian Rocket!

I'm also excited because it looks like I can watch the Junior Men! Kirill Sarnovsky is there he's a fave of mine! So see you all later today!

Yeah, I saw her, Anna and Aliona live at the JGPF in Vancouver in 2018. The practice sessions were intense! I remember being equal parts excited and nervous, especially after Anna fell hard on a quad attempt right in front of me in practice (I was second or third row for practice, wayyy further back in competition) and I saw how upset she was.

But on Sasha, the start of that Fifth Element music was really good for building the excitement! But iirc she had to skate right after Aliona in competition and Aliona was just unbelievable at that event so that worked against Sasha for sure.

What does it mean?

I think he meant "Потрясающе!" (potryasayushche) - smth like "It's stunning/breathtaking!"

 

[joeonice]

Does anyone have the senior ladies results and who competing junior ladies??

 

[flanker]

What does it mean?

"I'm trembling" (with emotion) or something like that.

The Senior Ladies results are here: https://fsrussia.ru/results/2021/2etap/CAT006RS.HTM

Google Translate should make it understandable.

I'm not sure you're too far off. I'm sure there was an interview where Plushy said the program supposed to invoke the emotions of Romeo and Juliet.

Sasha herself said that she is not Juliet in this program. She is an impersonation of the evil fate, the doomed love, that's why they chose this type of R&J's music exactly.
From here: https://fsrussia.ru/news/5149-aleks...zu-na-vtorom-etape-kubka-rossii-v-moskve.html
The fragment of the original text: А в произвольной - музыка из «Ромео и Джульетты», но я не Джульетта, а злой рок, злая судьба любви, поэтому и музыка так подобрана.
Sasha said there will be a new dress for this program.

 

[flanker]

Here we go.

 

[elektra blue]

i see this boy in burgundy found a job in a hotel

 

[flanker]

He's clearly disappointed

 

[elektra blue]

Vinokur is not on the result page, is he out of competition? anyway i have to go, i'll try not to choke on my risotto. see you in group 2

 

[flanker]

Hey, this isn't Mark Lukin

 

[flanker]

Ah, that means the first boy skated outside the competition, I guess...

 

[Baron Vladimir]

And it started for me with Elektra's type of music

 

[flanker]

Well, if Anna Shcherbakova is my daughter, Mark Lukin is my son

Mistake in combo but for a such young boy very good interpretation, spins, steps.
