6 December 2018 - Daria's off-ice training (choreography & dancing clases with Alexei Zheleznyakov) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZPw3qACR4U


Excerpt from the Original Post by indiaP12

Dasha is a very promising young skater with lovely jumps that have great height and length, as well as amazing flexibility and spins. She is JGP eligible next season (2019-20).​

 

[Spirals for Miles]

A great thread for a very deserving skater
Love the height she gets, especially on her 2A, and her great spins
Possible 3A at some point?

I hope so! Next year she is JGP eligible so I wonder if anything is in the works [emoji848]

 

[Sugar Coated]

So she’ll be senior eligible for the next Olympics? Clearly already extremely talented and her birth year may give her an extra advantage.

Yes, she’ll be 15 (nearly 16) for the 2022 Olympics, her first Sr year

 

[Dmitryfromsiberia]

The group Eteri three girls: Khromykh, Valieva, Usacheva, all of them will go to the Olympics in the first senior year.

 

[Spirals for Miles]

Or will be eligible at least. Unfortunately they’ve got some stiff competition in Trusova, Kostornaya, Shcherbakova, and Tarakanova, etc. who will also be fighting to go to their first Olympics

I don't write very well in English.Yes, will be eligible at least.

Yay! more red ball pics!

 

[The Finn]

Too bad for the spin but other than she was Superb.

[Azikin]

Yeah, Eteri girls nailed it today! :thumbsup:

 

[flanker]

Yeah, Eteri girls nailed it today! :thumbsup:

That isn't surprising, after all

 

[Spirals for Miles]

I'm really glad to see her upgrading her combos -- from 3T+3T to 3Lo+3T

 

[The Finn]

Her FS. She did great. She was 2nd.

[Spirals for Miles]

I really like her programs and can't wait to see her grow into them.
And two new combos: 3Lo-3T and 3F-3T . Hope she can fix that nasty flutz soon and learn a 3Lz-3T and eventually 3Lz-3Lo.

 

[The Finn]

1st Russian Cup event. She was 2nd behind Kamila.

Also very, very beautiful spins. One unlucky fall in the FP after 3F, fortunately just before the ending, otherwise solid skate.

Daria yesterday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJQeymIlxEQ
One fall after triple Rittberger, but otherwise very solid. 185.52, even ahead of Kamila Valieva. Another contender for next season JGP.
