2020 Cup of Russia: Stage V

What is the deal with Kamila's combos? Almost all of them have this weird delay between jumps. It's like she needed the extra second to "reload" her Rippon arms, which sometimes come with changes of edge on the blade.

Medal ceremony, glad to see that.

Come on the lads! I so want Erokhov to win this now. I'm all for the comeback of a World Junior Champ who disappeared from the ice for 2 years. Good work done by Vika Butsaeva!
Healthy skates to all of them!

I wonder what¨s the problem in the free. In the SP, in the gala program at Rostelecom, all Lutzes were perfectly fine, just in the in the free program there is still some trouble.

Too me it looked like a fluke timing issue.

She usually releases her upper body a bit early, but this time it looked really early. Her upper body was ready to rotate, but her feet were still on the ice. I think that’s why she was on the forward lean and had trouble getting into her air position, which gave the appearance of her food giving out in the air.

That's this era. 14 y.o. little girl delivers two quads, many other superb elements, jumps, spins, and we say "not great, but good"

In my dreams last night she nailed that 3lz and delivered a 3A as well

Yeah, they are weird. Her technique on the flip and lutz is a bit strange, too. However, her spins and her 4T are amazing. No skater is perfect! Even adorable Kamila!

Yesterday all of the top girls wear blue, today they all wear black

+5 GOE for the coordination

Eteri giving the girls elbow bumps

At least she is corona conscious

I guess it's the escalation in ladies skating. Good, excellent, superb, russian, divine.

It's crazy that Kostina beat Konstantinova in the cup. Although she was 34 points behind.
That's how crazy uneven these Cup Stages have been...

 

[Novalis]

But of course it was awesome to finally see two clean quad toes.That rippon has really stabilized them

I actually think it’s kind of better.

Now she lands on a slight outside edge and pulls herself to a deeper outside edge. I noticed it in the short too

Check out her 4Ts in the replay, the inside landing edge is quite noticeable both in the combo and the standalone 4T. I didn't see it last week in the gala or today in the warm-up. It might be a minor technique flaw she slips into when she is under adrenaline.

Yes not the greatest landings, and could be adrenaline.

As @anonymoose_au would say, the fanfare calls us to the men's FP!

Yeah looks like she still does it sometimes in the quads...I do think the 3Lz looks better tho

 

[LadyB]

Go, lads! Should be good

 

[elektra blue]

Sereja!!!!!!

Petya's veil is still there

It provides the lift for his quads -> 0.1 milli-seconds more air time.

Voronov smiles to the camera and i smile back...like a 14 yo
