What's that at the side of her neck?

It's like she cut her hand and then touched her neck.

olè! little firecracker delivered!

I do love my Yametova.! Great step seq!

 

[AlexBreeze]

Looks like sudden career-best SP for Veronika.

 

[EdgeCall]

Yay! Yametova doesn't fool around.

 

[Mathematician]

That StSq is getting better every time. It will be extremely effective when she hits every beat by finals.

Yametova seems to be closing in on Frolova level. Her FS also shows a lot of artistic development. She will be a finals podium contender within due time I believe.

 

[Pairluv]

Good skate for Yametova, but she doesn't have the flair for this music. That's not a criticism, but she's a more introvereted skater and I'd choose very different music for her.

 

[EdgeCall]

Gosh, Adelya kills it.

 

[elektra blue]

questionable combo but everything else was solid and 3A delivered. time for me to go, after my lunch break i'll fly on my broom to Angers. i'll back here tomorrow

 

[Mathematician]

Animate inspiration.

 

[Pairluv]

My happy place skater. Such a treat to watch.

yes in combo, a little mistake of balance.

 

[katymay]

Love this music for Adeliia.

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Clean skate for Adeliia, well done She looks to be in great shape already, let's hope she can stay healthy and uninjured this time around so she can have an even more brilliant Nationals performance.

However, and that's not Adeliia's fault, I have a little bone to pick with the judges - You do not have to give very high GOE on elements that were not effortless today, she will still win (deservedly so) without your gifts.

 

[Mathematician]

50 Tech SP is nigh

 

[thatdarncat]

I wonder if we will see Adelia at the Olympics, could be interesting.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Paramonova's protocol:
3Lz+3T<
3Fe

 

[Mathematician]

I wonder if we will see Adelia at the Olympics, could be interesting.

For her own skate I almost hope not. I cant imagine the hate and anger she could receive.

For her own skate I almost hope not. I cant imagine the hate and anger she could receive.

There will be some, but I doubt it will be directed at her, majority of people will be respectful. The IOC allowed the Russians to compete neutrally at the summer games, so I expect the same for the Winter games. I don't think the ISU can do much about that. And Eteri's team would probably pass the neutral test, so it will be between Adeliia and Sophia, if she stays fit.

Yametova in the mixed zone:
>After retiring, she wants to coach in her hometown.
>She plans to attempt a 3A after the main competitions.
