2021 Cup of Russia - Stage 1 - Syzran

[Novalis]

Molchik I love you and that new short!

 

[Imminielle]

Yep I like her!

 

[Jontor]

Honestly I can't see how she got 68pts with a 3-2 bad combo and an invalid jump. Maybe she also got some spin bonus ?
Anyway, I guess it does not matter as it's just Russan Cup...

Yes, I was sure that bonus was included in 68 points. They are really pushing her. But the jump mistakes aside, I think she was great. Spins were much better.
But it means that if she was clean she would have scored close to 85 points which might be a bit much...

Actually they forgot to add the bonus for her 3A and had to correct it. Her score is now 70.66.

Yes, I know. Which makes the score of 68 a little bit high if you think of the costly jump mistakes...

Our bashful star

Haha, cameraman just loves Trusova (who doesn't?).

Ahh, sorry, I misinterpreted your post. Yes, I agree, the score is inflated. Curious now what they will give Sasha.

 

[Jontor]

Sasha on the ice!!

 

[Imminielle]

Sasha seems off with the jumps but doesn't look bothered at all and keeps laughing her mistakes off.
Cameraman is giving us some drama with alternating shots of Sasha and Daniil.

 

[Jontor]

I'm going to jinx it and say that Sasha will NOT land her 3A

It's so nice for all the others skaters that the big stars are giving the Russian cup so much exposure! I'm sure it's really exciting for them to skate on the same ice too

They are probably VERY starstruck

Lets go Polina!

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Go Polina!!!

 

[Jontor]

Go Polina!

 

[Imminielle]

Yes. It's crazy how much Russian federation invests into broadcasting even the smallest competition. There is always a stream, a scorebox, replays, sometimes even a commentator.
Some of those girls who will obviously never go to international competition get bette coverage than some international competitors in other countries...
Must be so nice for them and their family.

 

[Jontor]

Great stuff Polina! She was one of my new faves last season and she didn't disappoint.

 

[Jontor]

Oh, a Loop combo attempt!

 

[PavelSky]

sometimes even a commentator.

After Sasha's skate, they will probably go to comment on Petrosian)
