Of course of course, Ruslan is hot, he doesn't look like Kevin Bacon 2.0My favorite quote personally is this one:
"And he is so better looking! Sometimes I look at him and think Wow!! that's my partner!"

I like the way this looks!
Even if you took 3 points off the SD score and 5 off the FD to be more in line with the PCS they were getting last year (and I think the PCS will jump this season anyway, but just to be conservative...) they are very competitive with C/B. And they aren't even 100% there on the tech side yet, so this season is going to be really exciting!
3 weeks til Cup of China & I'm so glad they've pulled up enough in the rankings to be in the 2nd warm up group. I want them to absolutely throw it down - it will be so hard to get to GPF because they are in the two most stacked events and other teams like G/P have two weak events almost guaranteeing them 2 silvers & a trip to Barcelona, but I think this year I/Z have the programs that will help them to get closer to the top.

I would love I/Z to go to Barcelona. They have the programs and worked really hard on their weaker elements, like lifts and the spin. I had the feeling as if Elena`s layback position in their spin got better and the element overall seems to be faster than last year. Neither W/P nor C/B looked unbeatable at their competitions, so I think there is the possibility for Elena and Ruslan to qualify for Barcelona.

I also think B/S will qualify. If I/Z qualify by beating W/P and C/B, this could really establish them as one of the frontrunners for a World medal or even the title.It should be pretty easy for B/S to get to GPF, and if P/C aren't ready it could even be easier for S/B to get there as well...
Btw, Ruslena`s vk group posted a longer vid of their FD and you can see there Elena and Ruslan bowing to Tarasova

If any of the Russians deserve GPF it's B/S and Ruslena for sure. I hope they both qualify but it will be difficult.

I love this. :yes:
I'm impressed with their spins also because last season that was the element which I found them to be really weak. Lifts tbh wasn't their biggest problem because they always hit the levels and positive GoE's. They only got that mistake at Euros and in the first 2 GP's got -1 deduction for extended lift but overall lifts were good. This season though they are way better in terms of execution. I love bother their lifts in the FD. So effortless and going into it out of nothing. I don't care about the one in the SD because that is the lift I hated most and I still do. Anyway, if it works for tham it's fine.

And you are more than welcome here. :yes:
I'm not a fan of Monko because she lacks in charisma and personality, IMO. However, after Ruslena's FD theirs is the FD I like most and if they can handle to be consistent with the levels they can score very well. I wouldn't count them out completely and I have to see BS in competition before being so sure about them. Although it's true, their GP's are much easier.

She actually told them off for such "misquotes" 
I noticed that in the livestream, a smart moveBtw, Ruslena`s vk group posted a longer vid of their FD and you can see there Elena and Ruslan bowing to Tarasova
. Does anybody know what Tarasova said exactly? She seemed agitated, so I'm rather curious.
