Alexandra Trusova

FFKKR looks for a way to fill the world quota without Sasha. Her trauma only helps here, but even her current state is still second among Russian seniors. So, it's not an easy task, but there is the RusCupFinal next month. Who knows?
Why would they do that they would be screwing themselves and maybe lose a spot for the Olympics? Who would they send analiza and one of the 14 Nastyas? Lol no.

Sasha will go to worlds and she showed by doing only 2 quads she tempered her free skate and it went very well. Even with only 2 squads she can score in the 235 to 240 range internationally and that certainly enough for the podium.

As for her trauma Sasha has almost 3 months to get better physically and we know she can skate at less than 100%. She can skate a too quiet for you skate at the Russian cup final and do just fine.
 
Not sure about others, but I'm just worried that in competing in these other competitions in order to be officially named to the team Sasha may aggravate her injury and not be able to compete. Which would really suck.

Also, it's just really disrespectful of the Fed, I feel like they just want to make her and her team sweat it out. :( And like they're ready to dump her as soon as Kamila and Daria U become seniors.
Sasha will probably only skate in one more event and that would be the Russian cup final in February and she should be better by then and if she still bothered by whatever's hampering her she can do a 2 quad free skate and be fine like at nationals.

Next year may be a different story and Sasha will have to fight for one of those 3 spots. But the fed wants a sweep at Olympics if they actually take place in at this point and Sasha is the only one who can score with Anna and KV of the Russian ladies. That is really not debatable.

If there is the worlds this year and they have to do something for Olympic qualification I say Sasha will join Anna and the 3rd spot will be alyona over Liza. Aliona can score higher than Liza even without her triple axel.

That's my prediction a 3A reunion at worlds 2021!

So is this going to be their permanent base? Or just for training camps occasionally (like in the summer)?

Anyway, Sasha's house is cool. I love the wooden exterior. A nice gesture from Plushenko (and good incentive for future students as well :laugh: ).

I can assume that (taking into account the usual training regime of 5-6 days + a day for rest) Sasha can live in this house both at normal times and during intensive preparation for the competition. The savings in travel time from Moscow and back will be enormous. Sasha is very close to her family. I think she will want to spend her free days with them at home.
In addition, now many schoolchildren study remotely, and Sasha will be able to master the school course while living outside the city. With good teachers, this won't be a problem.
 
New year, new sponsor for the Quad Queen! Congrats to Sasha, the photos are beautiful!

How cool!

The article was interesting too! I especially liked the last bit:

When asked where she sees herself in the distant future, Alexandra provides a somewhat surprising answer: “My ultimate goal is to accumulate a series of sporting victories rather than winning the Olympics. Ultimately, I want my sporting achievements to allow me to participate in international projects with a positive influence on people's lives. In particular, I would like to become a UN Goodwill Ambassador.

That's pretty awesome! I hope it happens.

Also how cozy does that big white sweater look 🥰
 
You Young: “I was shocked when I saw the first quadruple Trusova. She made me think that she is not human. " Korean figure skater You Young talked about how she first saw a quadruple jump performed by Russian Alexandra Trusova. “I was shocked when I saw the first quadruple Alexandra Trusova, when she jumped him at the World Junior Championships. We watched together with the coach and mom, and we were all in shock. History was happening before my eyes. I thought, "Oh my God." She makes me think that she is not human. Now every skater wants to jump quads, because now we need them, which is quite difficult, ”said You Young.

That's awesome. Is this her V endorsement? Awesome pictures too I don't think I've ever seen Sasha look like that.

Looking forward to seeing Sasha skate healthy at the Russian Cup final.
I think the Federation should have named her to the world team already
as to not put too much pressure on her at the Russian Cup final. Sasha's body of work this season clearly puts her on the world team.

Speaking of pictures how come no one here posted the picture of Sasha with her mini me Sofia Samodelkina?
Was that picture actually taken at cska like someone told me it was? SS was beaming. It must have been an awesome moment for her.
 
Does anyone have a link to the video of Sasha struggling to carry a huge teddy bear while Zhenya laughs at her? I think it's from Skate Canada 2019, but I could be wrong.

I don't have a link but that was at Rostelecom 2019 after FS. As far as I remember Zhenya has recorded it with her phone and published it in her IG, but it might have been as a story so... There might have been other photos/recordings as well. Surely there was a link for that at the time You might look for it at her IG or at her FF from that time. Sorry, cannot help more and good luck with your quest :).
