2022-23 Cup of Russia - Final - St. Petersburg

Not quite the skate Vika wanted, but she's honestly such a gorgeous skater, with a lot of hints of brilliance in between. Great technique too. ❤️

I knew the 3F was going down from the moment her edge stuttered in the three-turn preparation, unfortunately. :(
 
Nika could be the best jumper of all too when it's working.
Her technique is just a dream. And she has well developped muscles.
I don't know if it's her mother's work or herself. I tend to believe the latter. People like to credit the coach for good or bad technique, but forget that someone like Mishin while having Tuktik also coached Samodurova and Guliakova who had chronic URs, edge issues and heavily prerotated jumps.
 
Adeliya keeps her lead and sets herself up well for the free. Adeliya doesn't look to suffer from nerves but she has never been the one to beat at a big competition before so lets see how she handles it.

I'd like to see her do it tomorrow. I thought at the start of the season she was the one to watch but it never came together, injuries, I thought judges were hard on her. But that SP was perfect.

I'll take a Kamila bronze tomorrow. The gold is still in play with those two big quad toes that are stable, and she looks in better shape than the Russian Nationals so she will finish the program really strong.

If she knew that Akatieva would get 76, she would have gone for the 2A I'm sure, but that's how it goes when you have to skate early.

Guliakova switched to Mishin at the age of 16.
