A short interview from Ksenia Gushchina, today after the Mavis Cup in synchronized skating

 
Okay, congratulations to Konstantin Supatashvili on qualifying for the free program. For a guy without a triple axel, representing not the strongest federation, this is a good result :clap:

We cheered hard for him, and mom did her best to toss him a toy. We were surprised he qualified—the skate didn’t look great even for juniors, but he is so young and we hope he has a bright future!
 
Brilliant Ksusha`s skate! Love this SP 💃 oe oe oe oe

Share Konstya SP skate here:



Did they really give him a program with music called Jumpman? Oh, my! :rofl:

He did well in the free—actually much better than many, many, many more experienced competitors. I think Team Davydenko can be proud.

I think Kostya did everything they wanted him to do, and the coaches will be very proud of him. I don't think they were counting on a podium or anything like that. They were expecting good confident skates and they got it. There were, of course, flaws for which he would be scolded... Kostya tried to do a triple axel? Holy cow! :biggrin:



I mean, he's no Mozalev in his fifteenth, and now there are fifteen-year-old guys in Davydenko's group with stronger technique, but the beauty of this group is that they squeeze the maximum out of the athlete's technical abilities, plus give him the skill of strong presentation, beautiful movement and sense of himself on the ice. Shulepov was very good at that as a figure skater, and I'm glad he became a coach and teaches that to young athletes as well.

Clean FS skating, 209.62 points in two programs, 7th place and the best result for a girl without u-si. Bravo, Ksyusha!

Honestly, making free skate and not finishing last was really good for him. He is very much not Mozalev. I was kinda wondering if Mozalev when he skates live gives the same impression as Nordebeck. I saw A. Selevko live, but I think Nordebeck’s style might be closer to what Mozalev have.

Of course, they cannot be compared. Andrei is live hypnotizing, is probably the right word. It's hard to imagine that all the competition visitors are silent, watching Andrei riding in a long spread eagle, and then unanimously unconsciously shouting: Ah! - when he sharply deviates back and continues to slide actually at an angle over 45% to the surface of the ice. He is mesmerizing, he fills the space, and many figure skating fans are even willing to forgive his instability on the jumps. It is art on ice, something similar to what Papadakis and Cizeron did.

I didn’t see P/C live.
 
Two minutes Ksyusha Gushchina in Vladislav Katichev's vlog from RusNats 2023. "Hello everyone, cheer for Andrei Mozalev, for Victoria Nesterova and for me! Subscribe to Vlad Katichev's channel and give your likes to the video... What else are you doing there? Reposting? Reposts. And a bell (notification icon). For everything to be okay."
She's adorable
:love2:
 
Since I remembered the Shelkovnikov brothers, there is an occasion to share a video of Timofei Shelkovnikov's short program ("I lost my soul") from the St. Petersburg Junior Championships. The skater did not show anything special in terms of element difficulty and scored a relatively low technical score, but I really like the aesthetics of his programs, completely different from the aesthetics of the other guys from the team.



In addition, please concentrate on the execution of the spins - Timofei performs them very carefully, it looks aesthetically appealing, almost like a girl's spins.

Let's pray for this guy's recovery and that he gets back in shape as soon as possible to make the technical breakthrough he needs to get noticed and get into the competition. I love your presentation on the ice, Timofei, your freedom and beauty of movement, and I hope you can achieve more, can be noticed :pray::ghug:
