2021 Cup of Russia - Stage 1 - Syzran

Experience really is the new warhorse, isn't it? This is not such a good music cut, though.
Oh, and that last part of the music will forever remind me of Anna Shcherbakova's glorious Rus Nats performance last season.

Sadly - it's coming out of my ears!

Also, pairs guys seem to have a thing for loose fitting mauve colour graded shirts.

I wish their music was as Deep Purple as M/A's costumes!

Davaiii, Diana i Vlad!!!!

Not Diana's day again

Sadly, I think I've never seen a competition where it really was Diana's day.

Two years ago, downhill since then...

19/20 season she did well with Mironov till the youth olympics. They looked like russian junior pair No. 2 behind Panfilova/Rylov, but then they messed at junior nationals, didn't qualify for junior worlds and since then esp. Diana started to downgrade.

I think I'll have to miss Kunitsa, but I need to switch to Oberstdorf briefly to see how my girl Sophia Schaller is doing.

Sh/Sh is the new pair for me, but I think they did solid. Score is not high, but if they polish everything, they can be interesting young pair.

 

[LadyB]

Good luck, Zhenya and Georgiy!

Agreed. I liked that.

 

[LadyB]

I think Kunitsa has taken to pair skating very well.

Tumanova/Kunitsa, much better pair elements today than in the SP, although jumps were making troubles to them. They need to put everything together at once. Still they'll keep their place.

Used the ice resurfacing to watch Zhenya and Georgy. They have great jump potential of course, but it will take a little while yet for them to really gel. I admire all the pairs guys so much, the responsibility you have for your partner must be scary at times. Even more impressive when they switch from singles to pairs so relatively late in their careers.

Sofia Evdokimova seems to be vying for a coaching position in Sochi. Good on her!
