2025-26 Russian Grand Prix - Stage 3 - Kazan

[Mathematician]

Ok, no lost rotation, so he will finish same as Artur, if not even higher on PCS.

I don't recognize most of the men skating in this stage.

Artemiy Marinin - Maxim Marinin's son, skated in juniors before this season.
Aleksandr Melnikov - Butsaeva's student. Almost didn't compete in juniors due to different reasons. Won bronze at previous stage. Took part in the series last season as well.
Tartygin - definitely not his first appearance in the series.
Mukhortov - not his first appearance in the series as well. He was a first sub for some nationals.

No, Yagudin, we are watching the skaters, not coaches.

 

[Mathematician]

Where did he lose all that TES?

 

[flanker]

Vetlugin was little less cacti than usually today.

 

[flanker]

4Lz+3T by Vlad. And 4F.

 

[lariko]

Well, if someone is gonna jump, it's gotta be Dikidzhi

 

[AlexBreeze]

Where did he lose all that TES?

Flip edge?

 

[yume]

That double spread eagle into the 3A was really cool.

 

[lariko]

First clean skate! Well done, Vlad!

 

[EdgeCall]

Ok, not the best artist perhaps but his technical proficiency is so adorable.

 

[elektra blue]

last spin was lost in space but everytnig else was solid

 

[flanker]

It seems it will be a battle between Vlad and Ugo for the gold at Nationals.

 

[Jontor]

Great stuff Dikidzhi! He is clearly in a league of his own.

 

[flanker]

last spin was lost in space but everytnig else was solid

Lost in tesseract.

 

[Mathematician]

Flip edge?

Does it really give -2? Shouldn't.

Ok, not the best artist perhaps but his technical proficiency is so adorable.

I think his presentation has improved a lot. I enjoy this program.

It seems it will be a battle between Vlad and Ugo for the gold at Nationals.

I think Vlad is far superior right now. I'm sure there are others who can compete. It's definitely not just them.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Vlad spent a lot of time to include the 4F to the SP just to... get an edge call on it.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Does it really give -2?

If it's ! then yes. If it's "e" then it would be much more.

 

[Jontor]

Makar looks like something out of the Tron movie...

 

[lariko]

I think Ugozahev if he regains some of his components as he adjusts to new difficulty... but that's a big if. Dikidzhi never had skating skills of much renown so strangely it helps him. Because we are all still shocked to see Ugozahev skate this ugly.
