Always nice to see that Liza Medvedeva is still competing, I wonder if she can get a RGP spot this season if she keeps it together at the free.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Masha A has a really interesting sp this season and I love the way she is styled here

She looks to be in optimal shape, I do think she can be a dark horse at nats this season with some of the favorites coming back from injuries.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Does Dasha represent moscow now?

I remember something like that

 

[Mariiiiskate]

I remember something like that

she did represent Mari-El during test skates so im kinda surprised.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Oh Masha
She will forever be one of my personal faves no matter how she performs

It was a mistake I guess there were transfer papers in the summer.

Or she represents two regions like Aliev.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Dasha landed so many clean 3lz-3T in the warm up only ro mess up in the actual skate.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Sinitsyna had to WD because she had a car accident on her way to the competition (she's fine).

I was cut off from GS for two days for some as yet unexplained technical glitch...
But of course I've watched pretty much all the action. I'll have to catch up on Kovalev and Rukhin, but I wonder what happened to Danya Samsonov, he looked completely out of sync after being in the lead after SP.

Attempted too difficult content?

Attempted too difficult content?

Yeah, maybe. Although I thought he had worked on that a bit more... I'm sure he will now.
Kirill Sarnovskiy is even more of a mystery. Is that down to injury or just puberty woes? Poor lad...

I did hear that he retired from FS.

I don't know where it came from but it was discussed as a fact and not a rumour.

Probably he changed his mind but the break was too big so he needs time to restore everything?

 

[AlexBreeze]

Kotsin is on the resutls table of the SPb Cup.

Khamzin is still absent.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Galliamov hinted that he and Mishina are taking part in SPb Cup this week.

 

[Remilia]

How many disaster skates does Streltsova have to have before her coaches stop overloading her with ultra-c jumps she clearly can't handle

 

[AlexBreeze]

Unexpectedly great list at SPb Cup.

The best team in ID, the best team in pairs, multiple top women and men (on the SPb level).

Top skaters started taking part in smaller events more often.

I wonder what happened to Kadyrova/Mironov though...

 

[LadyB]

I wonder what happened to Kadyrova/Mironov though...

Good question. I really feel sorry for Mironov, so much bad luck for so much talent.

Talking about bad luck: Dobromir is not really kicking off yet. I've watched his performance in Izhevsk - he always comes this close and then he can't hold on to it as he used to. But hey, don't want him to be under too much pressure, he's only 12 after all.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Wow, M/U got almost 80

 

[LadyB]

Their skills can be never in doubt, but I'm really sorry, M/G's SP doesn't do it for me - at least not yet. Maybe it'll grow on me. Thinking of B/K's Kill Bill... I know what I choose so far.
