[flanker]

I think I know only two names in this first group, Orekhovskaya and Koltsova.

I think I know only two names in this first group, Orekhovskaya and Koltsova.

You haven't seen Tuguzbaeva before? I don't remember her well but I definitely remember this name.

I hope we get some nice surprises before the last warm-up.

I would just need examples of any other surname with a modern Russian root-word changing this much and adapting such an obscure suffix.

Well here we have Orekhovskaya, Opexobckaя, male surname would be Opexobckий, adjective, like Ърегей could be,, ий or ей is alternative suffix for adjectives.

Arina delivered solid performance, the music was too over the top for me but technically solid.

Well Orekh is a standard Russian word and so is the suffix so I'm not sure how this is analogous to Bregay... This is just a completely normal surname. You could be right though, it's whatever really.

 

[Mathematician]

Level 2 sit spin? How?

 

[Mathematician]

V for the combo? She did 3 full rotations in the sit-position. This is absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Mathematician]

This Russian season is the worst judging I've ever seen in my life. Just go back to the outrageous Eteri bonuses. This is unwatchable.

 

[flanker]

Koltsova - I really don't like this Bolero cover. But technically very good.

 

[flanker]

And I'm glad we hear Anna again.

I believe Tuguzbaeva is a local quad girl. She moved to Kazan like last season.

Kotenyova - lost combo

 

[Mathematician]

I believe Tuguzbaeva is a local quad girl. She moved to Kazan like last season.

I'm seeing she landed quads last season, but barely.

 

[Mathematician]

Nice layback.

Frankly I don't get the Russian scoreboard. They are trying to be different without good reason. Just keep the standardized contractions.

 

[flanker]

Borodina 52. I think last season it would be 57-58.

 

[flanker]

Agata Morozova - I did not like the program much, but again solid technically.

 

[Mathematician]

Morozova is absolutely stunning. It was almost perfect. Bad twizzle, too bad. ID has made me cognizant of these things.

I still wonder on the whereabouts of Viktoria M. She was supposed to become Dzpeka level.

 

[flanker]

Really good job indeed by Arina. She is one of the most stable juniors this season.

 

[flanker]

Sarafanova solid, but I noticed a stumble in steps, not sure if judges took it into consideration.

 

[Mathematician]

I feel that all things considered I prefer Sarafanova's skating to Parsegova's.
