I think they will do some B competitions this season. When do they start?

I hope they do some Senior B's. They need better starting positions. They are not low group caliber. I think their start position hurt them at Euro's and they could have beat P/C in the SD.

I have no inside info, if that's what you mean.
It's just that it makes sense and they need to climb the ranking, and what better way to test the programs before starting the GP? Last season they couldn't do this because it was their first seaons and they needed more time to work. Now they already have the FD, and in 3 weeks time (they left for holidays today) they will be back and prepare the SD. So they have plenty of time to be ready by end of August, early September.

I think so. He's a Basketball player.

I am planning on only GPF (and maybe Finlandia or Nebelhorn depending on entries), but I said the same thing last season and still ended up in Stockholm... 
We shall see!
(Now that Platov has had C/B taken away from him </3, I am really REALLY hoping that either the Russian Fed gets him to work with their dancers, or that I/Z just decide to do some kind of work with him. He was so complementary of them & everything they'd accomplished at CoR, I think he would jump at the chance.)

hwell:I think Platov just really wanted to work with I/K. But he's been nothing but complimentary of both Ruslena and Ruslan, saying he did a great job skating under pressure at worlds, and he congratulated them after their SD at CoR.
They seem really happy with Kustarova, though, and she's done a lot for them. I'm excited to see what their programs look like this season.

I'm very happy that they're with Kustarova too. They are very good with technicals side, the choreography is done by those who guys likes and wants. My impression is that Kustarova in particular adores Elena, obviously Ruslan for them is like their "child" so to speak. So, I see no point changing team.
