And Ksusha 59, she doubled Flip.

At least, Masha Z slayed. Hopefully she gets her first Sr Nationals.

Yametova only 62...

And I doubt there is much future inside of Russia. However, she brought a uniqueness to skating, and the Yametova slide.

Good she can be seen again definitely, she was missed till the previous season for some time.

Sabada/Astakhov were good.

 

[flanker]

Shesheleva/Karnaukhov. As expected, technically incredible, maybe not perfect synchro during spin but that's the only little objection.

 

[flanker]

Kovyazina/Mokhov were also amazing, maybe they will go into the lead.

I can't comment on Sazhina/Mokhov, stream was frozen for the first half of their skate...
But solid score.

Looked extremely confident today. Perfectly rotated combo and very fast/strong spins. Should be an easy nats.

Korcha's SP is going to be a masterpiece by season's end. She is so far ahead of everyone artistically. Her spins are absolutely inspiring.

She has never survived her FS after coming back. Though, it has never been a meltdown either.

Yea, I know, the FS is a different beast. Lots of skaters can ace the SP consistently but never take the FS. Maria looked like a different level this time though. Maybe her cardio wasn't tested but she didn't look too red or out of breath. The ease and confidence gave me Frolova vibes.

Jefferson Airplane on Russian skating competition

Sofia Voronova delivered solid skate.

 

[flanker]

Marina Sarycheva was nice, though I have some doubts about her costume.

 

[flanker]

Also solid delivery by Tarasenko.

 

[flanker]

Korcha now.
4S+3T, 4T fall, 3Lo, 3Lz+3T, 3Lz+2A+2A, 3F fall (only six jumps in 1st sport category). Last spin seems to be invalid.
Pity about the falls but through season this will be great program.

 

[flanker]

Chistyakova had ugly fall till the end, it threw her out of music and finished long after music

 

[flanker]

Anna Dokukina bad start, two popped attempts for 4T
