Offical FFKKR interview by Tat'yana Flade from Skate America: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-05W70lSsFg

Small transcript:

Anna Shcherbakova: “In general, I am satisfied, especially with my free program. But there are many more things we will work on ”

Russian figure skater Anna Shcherbakova shared her impressions of her victory at the Skate America Grand Prix stage in Las Vegas.

" This is a great experience for me. I really looked forward to performing at these competitions, after all, the first significant senior tournament for me. In general, I am satisfied, especially, of course, with my free program, I was able to held it together. But there are many more things that we will work on."

" It is very interesting to compete with adults, but I tried to think only about my routines, and not about my rivals."

- In the short program, not everything worked out. How did you recompose yourself afterwards?

" I tried to think less about my mistakes in the short and tune in more to the free. My trainers helped me a lot with this proper attitude."

" I’m nervous every time, but I can’t say that I’ve been more nervous here, maybe I’ve just been a little neat and didn’t track any moments. Now I will be much more attentive to these things, I'll try to never make such mistakes again."

- The next stage in China. How do you prepare for this start?

" I think for this start we won’t especially change the technical components, but we will work on programs, on all elements, and perfect everything to show clean skating,” said Shcherbakova.

I’m glad that Anna got the chance to see some of Las Vegas! She (and so many of her competitors) are too young to play the slots, but those pictures are very cute!

Good comparison of height and stature.

Congratulations to the amazing Anna on winning her senior GP debut!! Super late in posting this, because I was there and had to wait until I got home to use my computer lol, but she was phenomenal! She sells her free skate super well, and the way she moves across the ice looks so fast and smooth in real life, my mom said it looked as if she was flying. I'm happy for her victory, and that I got to see such a wonderful performance

There has also been an interview with Anna from day 1, where she talked about her mistake in the short program, trying to explian what caused it, about competing in a different time zone after 24 hours of travel and the like. Cannot find it back, believe it was on sport24.ru?

So she recomposed herself with the help of her trainers and competed for what she is worth on day 2, which for such a young and still inexperienced (on the senior scene) skater is quite a feat.

To all of the Negative Nancys, 'experts' complaining about "quads killing fs", selectively blind 'fans' that "just don't see the WOW effect in her programmes", Anya says: Eat this! (stats on ISU Skate America video views)

They're killing figure skating so much so that everyone tunes in JUST to watch those girls. lmao.

not sure if it's in the interviews already mentioned here, but i saw in her interview for the Olympic Channel she says her looks up to Mao Asada, and there is a developing resemblance between their skating for sure! they both have this floaty lightness.

Anna said something similar before (don't remember exactly when and where).

I bet too many people asked how she was permitted to enter a casino (just for taking pictures...).

I bet too many people asked how she was permitted to enter a casino (just for taking pictures...).

Because it was actually illegal for her to be there. "No one under the age of 21 is allowed in the casino area nor allowed to linger in the casino area while a parent is gambling."

I somehow managed to miss the news that Gleichengauz is Anya's parent. :shocked: Now I see...
