Anna Tarusina

I really want to like her, because there is so much to like (consistent, performs well). I don't know what she needs to reach the 'next level'. Focusing on edging? Flexibility? Musical phrasing? After three outings that I've seen from her this year she's been clean, and yet I'm not wowed. She seems like a nice girl too. Who is her coach again?
 
She will be at stage 5! And has a huge chance to make senior nationals! Her main competition is Gubanova and Sinitsyna, and her first event finish is better than both of theirs. Go Anya, get that senior nationals spot that you deserved from the beginning! :)

Her team chose wisely her Cup assignements :biggrin: I am so happy for her, she clearly deserves this and can make a statement at the Nationals. :clapper:
 
I think one of the best things she has going for her is her consistency - of course I'm nervous since there's only 4 spots left, but her consistency will really help her to come out on top here. Many of the other contenders are not as consistent despite having "bigger tricks" like 3Lz-3Lo. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the 2A-1Lo-3F combo. Davydov is smart putting it on the 2A here - gives it the GOE scoring of the 3F :)
 
The stream didn't work when Anna skated, so, I don't know if there will be any videos later but based on her score she did really great. Her total score was almost 199 points and her FS score was above 131 points. Her FS TES was about 71.5 points.
 
She completely changed layout in FP. And again her jumps are solid as rock. Is Anna determined to be silver all the time? :scratch2:
 
Her layout is the same as it was at Inge Solar, I think. It's good - it maximizes her GOE by putting the -3 combos on the 2A and repeats her best jumps, flip and loop. At least she has a challenger gold, but I want her to have more golds!

I made that comment to what the graphic showed, that was nearly completely different to the real program.
