Anna Shcherbakova

I just have a feeling Anna is going to shock a lot of people and win another big title this season just when no ones expecting it. Not sure if it will be GPF, Euros or Worlds, but I think with all the attention on Trusova, Alina and Rika she is a dark horse to take at least 1 major win. IMO her PCS should be at least 2 above Sasha in the SP and 5 in the LP, which almost makes up for 1 quad difference and if she is able to add the Quad Flip she can definitely challenge Sasha. Even with lower tech, due to the higher quality of her other elements she can rack up GOEs, which we saw when they were pretty close at Jr Worlds while Anna had a 2 quad deficit.
 
Anna demonstrated it herself in a video: https://www.1tv.ru/sport/figurnoe-k...evoy-kayf-tuktamyshevoy-smotrite-kak-eto-bylo

The dress is two layers of fabric over the body part of her leotard. She opens a clip at her neck and strokes the upper layer down while spinning, it was very convincing effect due to the totally different fabrics and the little sparkling gold applications that appeared. Firebird by Stravinsky is a ballet, here are some Firebird images to give you a general idea: https://nl.pinterest.com/fidras/stravinsky-s-firebird/
After the change, she has two thin veil skirts flowing from her hips, which is sort of distracting in fast spins, but otherwise, the effect was splendid.
 
Thanks so much! The first time I saw
If I was so blown away I thought it’s something like Alina’s black swan dress effect but this is much more. I hope it always works out as well as during test skates.
 
Rewatching Anna's performances, I have to say, her face in the end - so fierce and fiery! Just perfect for that program! What a performer she is!
 
Anna skates third in the first warm-up group tomorrow. Ladies' SP starts 13 Sep, 1430 local time. All the best!
 
4Lz fall... :scratch2: I kind of wonder why she doesn't try to come up with some other quad...

My theory, probably wrong. With the kind of injury, she had on her leg, Lutz is the least injury-prone and safest quad at the moment.
 
Want to wish lovely Anna the best of luck tomorrow (? not even sure what time it is for me). Her dark/creepy SP this season is one of my faves from her EVER (and that says a lot!). Welcome to seniors finally Ms. S.:luv17:

It's easy, just write "Time in Bergamo Italy" into Google.. ;)

I can't believe Anna will have a senior debut in a couple of hours.. they grow so quickly.. ;) GOOD LUCK! :cheer::cheer2::cheer:
 
This is a disgusting robbery, this is the work of the canad... a disgust this tournament. In which universe Shcherbakova can have less PCS thanTuktamysheva...
