Alexandra Trusova

[Flying Feijoa]

She is very lucky with her body type. Very athletic, strong, muscular but very pretty.

Yes. Her physique reminds me slightly of Aliona Savchenko, who as we know had/has a gloriously long career Or a ballerina, but specifically the type who can do quintuple pirouettes and jump higher than the man in the pas de deux (of which there are several!)

Sasha was the best at these test skates and showed the greatest progress, but it's too early to rejoice as she is always good at the beginning of the season.

Why too early? You can be happy about the current situation! You have to celebrate the festivals as they come! :yay:

I actually got tears in my eyes. It's so touching. Our great tiny Boss.

A few posters thought it was Elena I keeping time for Sasha during the step sequence, I thought she was just really excited

Looked more like an human metronome to me
It's only good if they work hard with Sasha on steps, SS and transitions.

Elena acted like an elderly sister to the girls, a bit like old Sergey, who I'm pretty sure is a hammer in training, acted like the gentle funny uncle for TT.
It's important for the team spirit

Trusova was never one of my fave ladies skaters, her programs never engaged me but something changed watching the test skates, she was brilliant considering the circumstances and I think plushenko is going to prove to be a great fit for her. The short program really grabbed my attention, I couldn’t believe it was the same girl. Loved it [emoji7][emoji7]

Plushenko about Sasha: via google translate

I couldn't separate Sasha's part from Alyona's ......

“Before the test skates, two of our athletes, Sasha Trusova and Alena Kostornaya, came to the training camp in Novogorsk, to show the programs and hear the opinions of specialists,” says coach Evgeni Plushenko. - Sergei Rozanov did both programs for Sasha, I connected. We worked at a summer camp in Kislovodsk.

Work continues. Now the choreographic component with Sasha is being refined and refined by Lena Ilinykh. Dima Mikhailov helps, is engaged in sliding with the skater.
Alena Kostornaya also did the short program by Sergey Rozanov. I didn't participate. She-Lynn Bourne puts her free on Skype, remotely. It was my idea to try with She-Lynn, I immediately contacted her by phone. We have known She-Lynn for a long time, she gladly agreed. Of course, she would have come to us, staged and worked with Sasha in Moscow, but because of the pandemic it did not work out, she had to work remotely. But I think when all the restrictions are lifted, we will definitely invite She-Lynn to Moscow.
Alena's free program is still raw, so we skated only a short one at the skates. It is unrealistic to prepare and show both programs in such a short time that Alena joined us. There was little time.

Let's see what elements the girls will perform. There was no need to force events at the test runs. In the free program, Sasha plans to jump three quads so far: two sheepskin coats and a lutz. In the future, she is ready to make salchow, but she needs to take a more confident start. We train the axel in three and a half turns. This jump is already close to being completed. Sasha herself really wants to master it. We hope everything works out.

Alena is currently jumping double axel in the programs. Because, I repeat, she came not so long ago. In addition, she had an injury, there is no point in taking risks, the season is just beginning. After the skates, we will prepare a triple axel, complete an arbitrary one, enter the season.

It is clear that working with professionals like Sasha and Alena is completely different. When you train juniors, it's one thing, when you are masters, you solve serious problems with them and set serious goals, it's completely different. We train together every day. We have enough ice. Sasha trains a lot. Two of his ice training sessions for an hour and a half and additionally engaged with other groups - skating, working on sliding, rotations. The main thing is that she understands that she needs it. And, in my opinion, Sasha improved her skating skills, began to open up more in terms of choreography. Choreographer Marina Akelkina, an excellent teacher of the Bolshoi Theater, works individually with Sasha. We understand the importance and necessity of such work.

We changed Sasha's technique, entry, twisting into the jump became faster. Now these skills need to be stabilized so that everything works out at the right time. As far as I know, Sasha always worked great in training, but it was not always possible to realize this in competitions. We are trying to solve the problem, but not all at once.

It is clear that the long absence of full training due to the pandemic is taking its toll. But I want to say about Sasha: we had a good training camp in Kislovodsk, spent a month and a half in the mountains at an excellent base, where there were excellent conditions, a lot of ice. We tried to make up what we could. And, of course, the strong character of the athlete plays an important role. Sasha is a plowman. She sets herself serious goals. It really works, sometimes for wear and tear. It even has to be stopped, which is not always possible.

As for Alena, she still lacks "functional". She has not skated for a long time and is currently training to the best of her ability. Plows too. He also sets ambitious goals for himself. If this continues, we will restore the triple axel. Our task with her is a quadruple jump.

When such masters as Sasha and Alena, titled athletes, with quadruple jumps, triple axel, come to the group, then all the other guys in the school begin to work differently, to plow. The girls gave a good boost to all our guys.

The season is going to be difficult. But we will adapt to the situation in which we all find ourselves, - thinks Evgeni Plushenko.

Noooo...Why an useless jump?!! Salchow is her less stable jump, it has less BV than Flip. For this season ISU standardized the Flip, Loop (Rittberger) and Lutz BV, those jumps give her more points and she has mastered 4F. She has Quad +3S in combo, that isn't enough?
So why not try a 4Loop or 4Flip?

Apparently she lost her flip and doing more complex and dangerous loop for even less points is useless.
Plushenko's told her he prefers medals and wins over another wikipedia article...

4S is less physically demanding.

In the Alyonas FF there is an argument about whether she has a piercing. We don't have to argue about Sasha. It is obvious. Well, as long as she doesn't get a tattoo, she has my blessing.
Although. There is a saying in German: Nothing makes a beautiful person ugly. And there is no doubt about Sasha's beauty.

I don't think the belly piercing is ugly.

Ich finde das Bauchpiercing nicht hässlich.

Nein, ich auch nicht. Das bezog sich auf ein mögliches Tattoo.

Mir war bereits klar, dass sie nicht die optimale Flugbahn für Sasha beschreiben.

The funny thing is that Sasha went in the opposite direction from where the coaches showed her the way. This can be clearly seen in the full video of this moment.

Thanks for the video! The cheerful interaction between Sasha and Dmitrii is heartwarming. I think it's great that the team is so young. The ice is cold enough, so human warmth is good for all.

I also love that the three coaches were bopping their heads in time to Liza's step sequence music
I hope that whatever ups and downs coaching life may bring, and whatever new Russian skating dramas may emerge through the years, that they can hold onto this youthful enthusiasm Perhaps into old age, like Moskvina!
