Malyutin did not come to play, well done landed his 4T-2a and 3A

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Also special shout out to Kirill K who dug himself out of 7th place to a podium finish

Very nice podium here!

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Not perfect but its so nice to see Alena Ks jumps working again

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Ulyana attempted a 4T it was downgraded and she fell but thats a promising sing thats she is even trying a 4T now.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Diana also attempted her 4S, unfortunately its also downgraded and she fell on it

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Lidiya also attempts a 4T but falls, otherwise a great free from her

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Quads were really not working for Andrey today His triples including the axel were great I wish he would go for less quads

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Lyosha struggling with quads a little today

It's so weird to see Savosin. Another failed country change?

Unlike last year, this season there will a fight for Nats. Some of the top men won't make it.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Roman I love this free, especially the ending! Ive missed him so much, nice to have him back!

Did he actually try to change countries? he denied it back then, not that means anything but I never heard about it since then?

He performed at a local competition in Kazakhstan. And Roman's coach didn't deny anything.

Of course, there is always the possibility that he missed the season, and performed in Kazakhstan simply because he worked there as a coach and there was such an opportunity to perform.

oh I never heard of that, so odd that he wouldn't be allowed to switch especially if he sat out 1 full season, I love Roman and he was a very promising junior but he hasn't entered the top 10 in senior nats once and hasn't had much success in seniors internationally either.

That being said im so exited for the Russian GP to start the men will be so exiting, such a stacked field with lots of evenly matched men.

Perhaps Kazakhstan wasn't interested, perhaps there were financial difficulties.

My dear Masha lives That fall on the loop looked painful but she managed to recover from it just fine

@elektra blue you should definitely see Savosin's new free program!

Adriano Celentano, quite a classy choice (the man is still alive and singing btw) kudos for picking some of his more modern pieces. someone should skate to Mina (who's basically the history of italian music and one of the best singers that ever lived in my country)

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Not a bad skate from Katya and Dima, not perfectly clean but no major mistakes that I see either. the stream was cutting a lot so I could have missed something they look to be in a good. shape, this is a decent program for them tho maybe a little boring of a music choice.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Daria and Roman look really strong this season. Their twists are nice and big and everything else looked confident. I still dislike her jumpsuit.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Vika and Roman are still together. Even tho I will never not think that she gave up on singles too soon, I do think she makes a good pairs woman. Its a shame she never managed to get a better partner honestly.
