«Значение имеет только место, а не рекорды»: Москвина о работе судей, ошибке Бойковой, давлении Олимпиад и конкуренции

По ходу сезона фигурист должен улучшать качество исполнения элементов и прокатов программ, чтобы результаты росли. Об этом в интервью RT заявила заслуженный тренер Тамара Москвина. По её словам, вместо громких слов о том, что подопечного засудили, она предпочтёт изучить протоколы и разобраться...

I highly recommend to read this interview with Madame Moskvina if you hadn't already. She is awesome and this sport is lucky to have her.

Not sure one can even get surprised about her wisdom anymore. Does she make the right decisions all the time? No one is perfect, but she’s very self-aware, and completely ready to try to solve any problems that may arise. I think we should have trusted her better after Worlds last year, she turned B/K around brilliantly. I hope she gets even more success in the future, mostly because I want other coaches to approach the sport in the way she does.

If there’s something I also wouldn’t mind is to see her pairs go 1-2 at Olympics and Worlds. A bunch of pairs deserve titles and medals, but the energy that radiates from Moskvina is just special.

She is a great example of how you can say all the right things in interviews, have a good reputation, and still survive as a top coach in the hub of politicking, backstabbing and intrigue that is Russian figure skating. I wish more coaches would learn from her.
As for her pairs, my feeling is they are a bit too young for an Olympic gold, I would be perfectly happy with a team gold and a medal of some kind. But who knows where the chips will fall, it's not a case of Valieva and everyone else down there, nobody is that much ahead of the competition and clean skates will mean everything.

Is Artemeva/Nazarychev really competing at the Junior Nationals? I would think that they are training as 2nd/3rd substitute for the olympics

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

There are rumours on the Russian board that Tumanova/Kunitsa have split up (hence their withdrawal from Junior Nats). A pity if that's true, they weren't bad at all. But sometimes the chemistry just isn't right. I wonder if they'll both give pair skating another go with other partners.

Love them! I'm just afraid they will be buried in Russian field.

 

[hanca]

Will they be able to get GP events, or did their ranking dropped so much that they have to start nearly from zero?

 

[Mauvedreamer]

Love them! I'm just afraid they will be buried in Russian field.

Oh I know, I hope not. They need those triple SBS jumps to stay competitive.
