Haha, I wish. Alas, I am just an ordinary owner of some ugly vases.Are you a WTT winner in disguise?
Have mercy on us squinty one-eyed pirates.Font reduced about the team event at Olympics as really, it's just a second thought...
I'm quite sure it wasn't Lambiel who sent Rika for four weeks to Colorado Springs just before Worlds for jump training (and yes, she's injured and she was injured at Worlds). And Shoma had boots problems. So I can't see how stricter coaching could help them both...
Choreographer Daniil Gleichengauz @daniil_gleikhengauztold about the plans of figure skater Anna Shcherbakova for the Olympic season.
“I think the season ended on a great note, our team won the team World Cup for the first time. Congratulations to all the guys, coaches, federation - an excellent achievement. The performance itself was excellent, we won three out of four events.
Throughout the season, despite the difficulties with the coronavirus, thanks to our federation, we had competitions, experience, practice. Therefore, we were in such combat readiness for the World Cup and for the World Cup, it was difficult to compete with us.
We joked that Anya Shcherbakova is slowly gaining shape at the end of the season. In fact, she began to feel better - apparently, the disease is finally letting go. We went through the most difficult period and, I hope, we will be able to calmly prepare for the next season so that she can work the way she wants in full force.
She was preparing for the World Team Championship almost in full force. We wanted to go on two quads, started rolling it, but so far we decided that it is not necessary here - it is important to skate well.
We have already discussed that there is no question of performing in the Olympic season with one quadruple. We will try to show two, or maybe three, ”Gleichengauz said on the Ice Stream channel.
Aliona has injuries as well though. As far as we know Anna and Liza aren't injured, at least not more than the "usual".Perhaps it was factors beyond control, but I don't think its an unrealistic question to pose (especially coming into the off-season) is a stricter style coach the best way to go. Look at the difference in Kostornaia from last season to this season and yes we know she had illness to deal with but as did Shcherbakova and Tuktamysheva both had illness and they managed to keep it together well enough to get to first and second at Worlds. I read on here that someone said at Worlds that Shcherbakova was still needing to modify training due to recovering from her illness. Below is a statement from Daniil after WTT (disclaimer this is via google translate).
I'm not going to question what you wrote. Except this doesn't apply to Lambiel and his students.Perhaps it was factors beyond control, but I don't think its an unrealistic question to pose (especially coming into the off-season) is a stricter style coach the best way to go.
