2025-26 Russian Grand Prix - Stage 3 - Kazan

I need to get a service dog or something to help the outrageous anxiety these sorts of warmup groups give me

Was it this or last week when there was a hit at international GP training? I think it was in pairs.

Mura gives one more reason for my heart to explode with this group

Is it a group photo?

Do you mean the Japanese and Italian ice dance teams at the current GP?

It was a couple days ago. In ID.

Yep, that's it.

I don't really like the worried looks Mura has before her skate.

Ice Dance. Charlene Guignard and Utana Yoshida collided, but, luckily, nothing terrible came from it.

Generally, Dance warm-ups and training seem to be the most collision-prone. There was even a competition a season or two ago at which the referee stopped a warm-up and scolded the teams because of a number of near collisions.

10 people on the ice is too much. Especially considering ice dancers are normally faster.

Solid skate from Fursova! She needs it, this stage is so stacked...

Very entertaining performance by Lyudmila. Technical score is not as high as I would wish but she should receive high components (which she won't get I know).

Don't make this even worse for me.

I guess I need to just accept it. If she skates clean or poor, it doesn't matter—I won't be able to keep it together in either case.

She always looks like she is going to have a nervous breakdown...
It's nerve wrecking to watch.

Found it, with commentary by Nadiia Bashynska:

Last season there were RGP stages with just 4 teams and they looked very fine.

Nationals and final with 5 teams: two collisions that led to consussions. Several near collisions.

 

[Mathematician]

Look how fast she is!!

 

[AlexBreeze]

Multiple three-turns entry! Gorgeous.

Yagudin is thrilled.
