Big sis, little sis (err, or maybe, older sis/younger sis now that Lena's taller)! :luv17:

I'm so pumped after Lena's win this weekend!
I think I'm gonna start working on a Radionova montage for YouTube tonight. With any luck, maybe I'll finish it tonight too!

sabinfire, you are the best, and I totally :bow: to you! I am *eternally* grateful for all the YouTube posting that you do! It has been a real pleasure to hear the different commentators weigh in on the skaters' performances!!

As Noolan mentioned, here's Lena's banquet Periscope vid:
https://www.periscope.tv/Radlen99/1RDxlXoDEqOxL

I was totally :rofl: when Ksyusha (Ksenia) kept blocking Lena's view from the camera! But again, my main takeaway from these videos remains that Lena likes to use them to see herself fluffing her hair.. :laugh:
 
This stuff deserves a separate post.

Long interview with Lena:
http://www.team-russia2014.ru/article/22990.html

Some highlights, via GoogleTranslate:
- How can you overcome this difficult period?
- In Moscow, I came back not in the best mood. And indeed it was a feeling that the season is difficult - from a thigh injury that I got at the beginning of the season and because of which could not go to the competition in Finland. Then he had this Chinese history. Everything went according to plan, besides, I have grown a few centimeters, but it's also an additional challenge for the athlete. But I am reminded of the Chinese Grand Prix - and I understand that everything that happened made me stronger. I grew up as an athlete and as a person. Being alone by myself before the start and ready to enter the ice without a coach, I have a better feel for my internal state before the performance. I'm very glad that I was able to overcome all this, and now have become more confident in psychological terms. Now I more clearly understand that sometimes there is a series of unsuccessful performances for the benefit of the athlete. So everyone is looking for themselves - through training, competition, the ups and downs. That all happened in the most important competitions.

... My main job is not in the pursuit of some supercomplex elements but to carry out my program cleanly. When I skate, I focus only on myself, and just doing my job....

- The closest Grand Prix Final will be the third for you. Before that, you take the fourth and second place. How important for you to win this tournament?
- To be honest, I want to collect all the titles (laughs). That's why I train all the time - to win. After the final Grand Prix for me the priority will be the championship of Russia and study. Important for me to pass the exam. And in the Russian championship will be selected for the European Championship and the worlds.

Thanks, Batsuchan! Lovely photos. It's so nice to see the skaters enjoying themselves after a long competition. It's nice to see Ksenia be goofy too, as she is typically so intense on ice (which I love) :). I want Elena to win everything too, though I also want her to pace herself. I am fully expecting her to win the 2018 Olympics, so I want her to stay healthy until then! Also to work on holding her positions a bit longer and maybe tone down the arms a little bit? And to get better programs for the olympics! Titanic is fine for this year, but not for the Olympics!! I would still root for her though, no matter what she performs! She is a champion!
 
I have been watching her FS over and over again. At CoC it was very dreary, but given how shaken up she was by Inna being hospitalized I now understand, so to see her perform freely and powerfully without a care in the world was wonderful. Great stuff Lena, knock'em dead at GPF!

Awesome!!! :agree:

Here's a radio interview with Lena from today!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=1&v=AOwMi7I0uHw
Can someone please translate the highlights? The only words I recognized were Yuna Kim, Mao Asada, Carolina Kostner, and Audrey Hepburn. :P
And photo:

Here's another interview:
http://fsrussia.ru/intervyu/1489-elena-radionova-novaya-lena-eto-zhizn-posle-kitaya.html
From what GoogleTranslate says, it seems Lena is going to try to go to a sports college after all, and maybe get a second degree at a theater school later. She also mentions that she was offered a part in a film 2 years ago, but she had to turn it down because of her busy schedule... :eek:

More banquet photos: :love:

Another new interview:
http://www.sovsport.ru/gazeta/article-item/861339
Not much new here (as far as I can tell from GoogleTranslate). Just that Lena likes Periscope because it's easier/faster to say something than writing answers to comments (on Instagram, etc).

Also interviews from right after the SP and FS at Rostelecom:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WN5J-uPdiEU
I am really curious to know what Ilya Averbukh and TAT said!
And very short video after FS:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tl-eQ61TNrQ

Apparently Lena designed her SP dress herself...?! :eek: Cool!!

I made this yesterday on my day off

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5U-5xHULek
Some people were saying she flutzes on her lutz so I made this video to dispute the claims.

Thanks Sam-Skwantch!! I saw that discussion in the Rostelecom thread and I was just like :scowl: ...so thanks for making the vid.

Some more to add to my previous post

Awww, so cute! :luv17:

Another video interview--from the EX:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYAuuZrAR_E
LOL, looks like they did it in the middle of Adyan's interview...but I'm sure he didn't mind watching Lena again, right? :biggrin:

And some adorbs photo of our supermodel when she was just a baby supermodel... :luv17:

All of these pictures and videos are so cute! Thanks for sharing everyone!

Also, those posters who are complaining about her nonexistent flutz are just trolling. I wouldn't worry about them:cool:
I'm glad Sam made a jumpatron for Elena though!!
