2025-26 Federation Cup Final

? She was clean at Moscow cup final
I guess I should get used to using allskaters instead of skating scores. Still, she doesn't give much hope in her stability. The salchow was rough and quartered there as well. She's probably the favourite though then yea.
 
That was a very impressive Pairs short, all the couples were so strong. 7 of the 8 would have place 1st in the short at junior worlds. Always funny to see Alexander Smirnov coaching Elena Berezhnaya’s daughter. Looking forward to the free.

Watched the top dance couples, I was impressed with the speed. I enjoyed F/V most, great to see The Cranberries make an appearance in Figure Skating. Also liked S/G.

It’s disappointing that none of these couples are able to compete internationally.
 
Shesheleva/Karnaukhov are Terminators now. Not many senior skaters would deliver such masterful skate.

Thejr elements are indeed impressive but need to improve their skating skills especially Shesheleva. I guess that will develop with maturity.

But bright future for them.
 
I missed pairs in Russia thanks to lunch with my sis. But results are good. I am glad Arina/Matvei had redemption skate for yesterday

It will also depend how she matures. For now she is tiny girl but when she turns into woman will she be so light and easy to carry? Of course I hope so. nevertheless there are many talents now among Russian Junior pairs.
 
OK, I saw Arina/Matvei and Polina/Egor now. I will catch with the rest later. Both skates great and damn, Polina/Egor are so fast
 
Girls start now. Though I will have to swoitch between Russia and Estonia now as there will be Jana Horčičková soon.
 
Sofia Smagina delivered her usual dynamic skate, though technically she was not as secure as she is usually.
 
Lidia's skating is such a pure beauty. Such a pity about the combo but she should receive very high components.
 
Sofia Dzepka amazing delivery. Sophisticated skate. Can't wait to see her in seniors.
 
Vika great. Incl. 3A+3T. BTW as I'm switching between Russia and junior worlds Russian girls look like turbo propelled in comparison, they are so fast...
 
Alena Prineva delivered maybe best SP I saw from her, she looked so relaxed and enjoying her skate. Smiling after the skate. I don't get how she got only level 2 on steps.
