2023-24 Russian Grand Prix - Stage 6 - Moscow

The 3A was telegraphed more than usual. I knew it wouldn't end well.
Why repeat the jump? She should have tried it once.
 
How it feels being an AOP supporter this season

It goes to show you can't teach someone how to conquer their nerves. Plushenko used to own the ice. His confidence was half of his ability. Yet, he can't give that to his skaters. Talent is 2/3 of the battle, but the other 1/3 has to come from within and having that competitive edge. Anna Shcherbakova exemplified this better than any other woman skater I've seen in years.
 
GAGHHHHHH SOMEONE GET THESE PLUSHENKO GIRLS A SPORT PSYCHOLOGIST I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORREEEEE WHYYYYYYYYY
Not sure this is an issue she needs a sports psychologist for... If it was purely nerves, I'd expect her to make mistakes on the other jumps too, I think this is something else. :unsure:

Maybe just tell Plushenko to stay home next time, he's not helping.

Its 100% nerves. Its always so easy for her in training and she hits it every warm up.

But maybe the ice today... maybe...
