Ekaterina Korchazhnikova, 11, FS today with 4S:



This competition: https://ffkm.ru/images/files/online/2024-12-16_sp/index.htm

Moving and connecting with the music like that at 11 is ludicrous. Eteri girl? Her first camel spin is very nice. I like the last spin as well if she were to finish it into a Biellmann that would be marvellous.

Thats my favourite Piazzolla piece as well please let me know if theres a video of this program with higher audio quality.

She is incredible. She's destined for greatness. What is her birth date is she eligible for 2030?

I tried to google her birthday but there weren't many links. The one I clicked was someone so angered by this beautiful skating that they wanted Eteri banned :biggrin:

She will probably participate at Moscow and Russian novice championships, there should be higher quality of stream. Though this is still much better than from most Challengers :biggrin:
 
Wow another one with an unlucky birthday misses out by one month.
I don't want to be that person, but she isn't missing the cutoff by one month, but by one year and one month.

The Olympics may be in 2030, but the Olympic season is the 2029/30 season - Skaters will have to turn 17 before the 01.07.2029, ergo the latest possible birthday to be eligible is the 30.06.2012.

No, thank you for being that person. That's a bit embarrassing for me to make that mistake :biggrin:. I know the rules too.
 
Alisik doing 3A in training:



In canse it is stable it would be great. Alisik would ba then another case of "later bloomer". Not completely late, she is doing quads for some time already, but I think only since like 15 she is really stable.

That is terrifying. I didnt expect that from her at all. She has also landed 4F a few times. If they finally give her programs to maximize her artistry she will be unbreakable.

As for 4F she did it already like 3 years ago in training together with 4Lz, then there was some recession, then she started doing 4Lz again, but now 4F appeared in training again. SP with 3A and free with 4Lz, 4F and 4T would be great.
 
Alisa first landed a 3A in training all the way back in February/March of 2022 (!). She lost the jump at some point after that, and it wasn't seen or heard of again until now.

Exactly. Who expected her to regain all these jumps post-growth? Maybe I'm silly but it didnt look like she had a 3A in her from what I saw in competition. She could be the first of the paradigm breakers in Russia. This generation is going to be astonishing.
 
ISU is allowing Russian and Belarusian athletes to compete as Neutral and potentially qualify in China for the olympics:
Link to official ISU statement
As expected each discipline will only have one spot to qualify. Given some of the verbiage some people are saying Teamtut and Plushenko skaters won't be able to qualify due to their association with scandals regarding banned substances (Valieva from Teamtut and the 2 banned girls from Plushenko by Rusada). If this is true and the verbiage is strictly applied this way then this would mean Adeliia, Sofia AKateva, Sofia Muravieva, Veronika Zhilina, etc. won't be able to qualify or go to the olympics due to their teams.

Alina G may be the only top skater with ultra-c able to qualify as neutral for the Olys, otherwise maybe Anna Frolova or Veronika Yametova.

I wonder who'll get picked by February (since that's the deadline to choose the athletes who will be selected for the qualifying event in China I think).

Doping wont affect Eteri's camp. Association with a suspended skater. Its a qualification, not a person. You cannot be punished for any association with any person. I see no such rule. Eteri has no associations with such a qualification and never has. Her association with unbanned Valieva cannot be considered, it does not fit the wording. Thats association with a person, which is not forbidden. Law is extremely exact. We have to look at every point in time in Eteri's recent career and see if there is a moment we can find where she fulfills the situation of "association with a suspended athlete". I can find no such point in time where all conditions are met. I am not a lawyer and have not written contracts from scratch, but I have edited them drastically for clients myself and am familiar with how legal language works. Its more like math than normal speaking. Its linguicized math. We can find no point in time where Eteri or her skaters fulfill all conditions of that restrictions. She has association with a PERSON who would later eventually BECOME suspended, at which point there have been zero associations with that person under that qualification. This is a totally standard rule about subverting court decision and not a target at Eteri. If they train and support a banned athlete they subvert the court and are punished. I am 99% sure they are safe unless we are at a point in society where law is literally and overtly borderline nonexistant and meaningless (which is, however, super possible)

For example, if you want to convict Eteri you would need to provide a specific instance. With a date. If you want to show her connection with Valieva, you would pick a date before her ban, and you would have to convict Eteri for what she did exactly on that date. However on that date, Valieva was not banned, so no rule is broken. Eteri has never broken the rule. There is no point in time where she can be convicted of breaking the rule. They're safe.

AOP however is likely done for war connections. Especially the show girls. Muravieva will not be seen for a while. If a doping-suspended skater is/was actively training at AOP, DURING their sentence that would also be a big slam dunk on them and everyone one of their skaters.

Wasn't Plushenko included in the list of athlete/coaches that Ukraine wanted to get banned when everything was just starting due to his shows and his vocal political stand? I seem to vaguely remember it.

I bet Plushenko is on a lot of lists. He is very unapologetic about politics. Its extremely irresponsible to his young athletes who dont know what they're doing. He sort of buried them.
