Quintessential Sasha: the hair, the outfit, the smile, the Tina. Good luck for tomorrow!

"We decided with the coaches to take out the triple Axel. They said, let's go without it. I really would have liked to do it, though."
Of course Sasha, of course.
Good luck in the Free. Dracarys!

no need to feel sorry for her, she knows she can't win a SP against skaters with a 3A and clean skates just yet. it's not over til its over, we still have half the competition left. it will be very interesting to see how the cards fall.

That was a good, sensible skate by Sasha today - I would have liked to see her 3A again, but sometimes it's more important to skate clean, and not take the risks. She has improved so much in terms of her flexibility and her spins over the last couple of years, and it's nice to see that paying off with level 4s for her. Also, knowing she is going to unleash the quads in the free, I am very curious to see if she can make up the 13.5 point gap - tomorrow is going to be thrilling all the way to the finish.

LOL, Olga Yermolina had to fetch Tina before she ran off since Aleksandra was still in her boots.
How Tina manages to deal with all this? She is as brave as her mistress
Aleksandra needs to skate squeaky clean to beat either Alyona or Anna to the Gold medal when they both skate cleanly.
But proofing herself is more important than winning at the moment, it seems to Aleksandra.
I am guessing at Anna, Alyona and Aleksandra on the rostrum as 1-2-3, but my guess is as good as anyones ;-)
Let's hope all skate cleanly tomorrow and the honest best one wins.

Sasha SP has improved a lot, so much attention to detail this time!
I think before she did not commit to her spirals and spins as much, but she really did pay a lot more attention this time!

Sasha had a clean runthrough! 4 quads and a nice 3Lz-3Lo. No 4S, thank God.
Thank god she’s finally listening to her coaches and getting smarter about layout. I can’t remember the last time I saw a clean free from her, and she’s really been doing herself a disservice by going for too much. It’s all well and good to try things out in competition, but clearly she does not need competition experience to get her jumps perfected in the background. Just look how well she’s doing with the 4F, which by all accounts she hasn’t even been seriously practicing all that long. She has plenty of time to stabilize the 3A and 4S before putting them in her program.
Make sense to may people in this forum, I assume.

Awww that was so heartbreaking!! Sasha is so brave to try that final quad toe after popping the first one. When she fell on the quad flip, I kind of had a feeling that she would mess up the quad lutz. I hope that Sasha realizes that not every performance can be a good one. There are always going to be those tough performances, but Sasha has the determination and I know that she will bounce back at Euros.
I felt bad for Sasha when the camera people kept trying to record her crying. Why can’t they just give these girls some space?! Sergei and Daniil tried to block them but the camera people moved around them. And then Sasha was walking backwards so she wouldn’t have to face the camera. That shouldn’t have to happen. Maybe someone from the Russian Fed should contact 1TV and tell them to the girls some space.

Poor babe, I really wish for her to win some major event like EC or WC, she deserve it.
so sad for her falls, but she won her spot for Europeans so I hope she rests well and shines there!

First part of Sasha's free skate was harsh, but despite how miserable she had to feel, she made a great redemption in the second half, she even did 3Lz-3Lo again, apart from 4T in a combo. Still, we are talking about a bad skate that would provide silver medal for Sasha at the last worlds. It is always relative what we can call "bad".
I hope Sasha wil recover fast, she obviously has the ability, and be ready for the Euros and Worlds.

Well, Aleksandra and her trainers have their work cut out for them. Stabilise that triksel, find the optimum layout and number of quads.
With World Championships coming, time to play at Games of Thrones is over, a optimum needs to be found in order to conquer the world. Tame those dragons, make them work for you, play to your strengths.
Yesterday's SP already showed to my eyes Aleksandra is committed to improve her artistic expression and skating skills. Distributing her power over the jumps so she maintains concentration and doesn't run out of power (since she is growing) releases physical and mental energy to work on GOE.
I have full confidence in #TeamTutberidzeForProgress to have Aleksandra's best interests always on their mind. Aleksandra herself first of all needs to stay healthy, taking so many falls is dangerous.
