Yea she lost cause she fell on the 3-3. Otherwise she would've gotten 2nd but of course thats not considering the lack of Muravieva at the tournament and the many others throughout the season.
Exactly 2 years ago in Beijing...
As much as I'm Anna's fan, I still cant' be happy about her win. First, because of the whole Olympics athmosphere surrounding the Kamila controversy and second, because it effectively ended her carreer, as Olympics often do...

So after watching this fan cam I would like to send a formal apology to all Frolova fans who I have been ridiculing.
She is a master in this performance. Everything I said she doesnt have, she showed that she does with this skate.
Judging by fan cams, nobody else came even close to this pure skating at this event. Sinitsyna totally paled in comparison. Muravieva was great in her 2nd half but she had too many shaky and inconsistent moments at the start to compare to Frolova overall (in spite of Muravieva's awesome theme and expressivity).
I'm not judging by the "event standards" but just by skating standards which is all I care about and all that really impresses me.
Some pretentious theme and many props does nothing for me. Naturally beautiful, sophisticated skating is the peak to me and she reached it at a substantial level.
I could go into extreme detail on how impressed I am but I want to preserve my time.
I think I can admit she is likely the favourite now of those (who are competitively eligible) currently fighting for the 3rd place of artists in Russia after Petrosian/Akateva. Indeed, even ahead of Sinitsyna. But all will become more clear next season which makes things so much more exciting.
@LolaSkatesInJapan I wonder what you think of this skate from a ballet perspective (the fancam, not official recording)?
That was absolutely beautiful--so glad she is still skating. My favorite Russian since the JGP.random fs videos

I know but it doesnt do her justice at all, the fan cam shows her much better.
Soviet pair skater and now a show skater and Estonian coach Ekaterina Bokiy (competed as Ekaterina Murugova, her instagram nickname refers to that second name).
They did ice shows together
She's not Estonian, but her husband is, no? Though I wonder where her last name comes from, as it's not her current (lol, they've been married for 20 years) husband's either.
And her husband was also Zhenya's partner in some shows
Wonder how long that will last - Not like she has many options left with a mother like that.Elena Kostyleva switched to AoP
Considering what she said about the Sarnovskiys....Wonder how long that will last - Not like she has many options left with a mother like that.
Well...that was about the only option left, so not at all surprised. There are many little girls in her age group, and that is important-would like to see her have a more normal skating life, and pray that mom takes a giant step back.Elena Kostyleva switched to AoP
I think that is the worst possible situation for her mom, I wonder how long till she is bad mouthing those girls online and saying the coaches should be focusing on Lena instead due to her being “most talented “.
At least Plushenko has some experience with mums like Lena's, more than some of the poor coaches she has clashed with before - But I have a feeling she might be worse than even Yana herself

Thank you!
That's a question, it certainly didn't work out well for many others. I'd really prefer her to go anwhere else, basically..
Aaaand Yurova and Mazur just demonstrated why it's not a good idea...
