Alina Zagitova

[MasaruIriska]

Does anybody know for how long the team will stay in Novogorsk? (or usually do) Till the end of July?

And do you guys think Alina will show up with a diferrent EX program on The Ice show? I love the Afro Blue one (I know that a lot of people disagree) but I’me expecting something new this time.

I'm not sure. I'm hoping maybe we will get a "sneak peek" of her new competitive programs in "exhibition" form.

I liked "Afro Blue" too - reminded me of some of the "far out" programs that Denise Bielman did as a pro.

I also like Afro Blue, very unusual music and showcases her skating as it is a very difficult piece to skate to.

Anna Karenina was once a Zhenya EX program I think, then later it bacame her FS. Not so sure about my timeline but I think I'm correct.

So Alina might debut a new competitive program as an EX, she used her SP (Black Swan) as a second EX piece in Korea. We might see a new EX, she has two new competitive programs to tackle so I don't know how that'll go (3 new things vs 2 new things and same EX or using Black Swan as EX piece).

Or better yet, Masaru with that pink ball. Once Eteri took Diana's kitten to Novogorsk (Alina mentioned that in one of her old periscopes), so maybe Masaru is already there too casually chewing on someone's sneakers.

Do the trainers also live there?

I think they do stay there, not in the same quarters as the skaters probably. I gather this from Alina's old periscopes where they are always joking "and now Eteri comes in".

new backloading rule passed - 1 in short and 3 in free
because of how iffy her combo is in the short, I'd put the flip as the backloaded jump
and in the free, I'd do:
2A-3T
3S
3F-2T-2Lo
2A
----
3Lz-3Lo
3Lz
3F

that way if she misses her combos she always has a second place to put them
