Yeah, I don't think even 4A would help them.. ;)

Heck, superstitious part of me begins to go crazy with this conversation. Come on! If you want that youre favorite skaters win, you must always doubt before competition. Now I will be terribly nervous, thanks a lot

I'm very surprise to see the dislike towards her SP dress. I think it is glorious and suits the program well. Not to mention, she look stunning in it.

Compare to Shcherbakova's SP, it was kind of need some more wow factor though. If she add her 3A during RN, I'm pretty sure she will be on top of the podium. Looking forward to her FS.

They do, but this is very rare case. Alёna and Alёnushka are much more common.

Alёnka is derivative name that is OK for close friends and relatives but not for others.

She uses it to refer to herself on social media, though, so I think it's fair for fans to use.

But what if some Japanese ladies puts a 3A-trump card on a table today? I always hear that Japanese ladies are training a triple axel. So I'm kind of a little worried about this.

Japanese lady got GOE 0.66 for her 2A, so, I do not think she will try 3A, she can lose a lot.

I‘m not sure whether it was her I saw because she was running and wearing her Team Russia jacket on top but if it was Alena, her dress looked blue. But I can‘t guarantee because I only saw her for the split of a second.

Didn't you consider being paparazzi as your future occupation? :laugh:
Just a joke, we will be looking for blue dress :)

I think she'll play it safe.. like Anna.. but maybe she'll surprise us.. ;)

Yeah, I think they'll be working towards adding those jumps during the season, not from the get go. No need to rush things.
