Elizaveta Tuktamysheva

So, so happy for Liza. I'll probably get to actually see her SP as late as tomorrow evening, but I had to log in here to at least see how she is doing. I couldn't have found a more upcheering feedback. :party2:
 
I am glad that the judges acknowledge her. I was soo afraid they would give the gold to Radionova easily despite however hard Liza tries. I love Radionova but she is not as mature as Liza.
So happy! My head is on the cloud right now. :yay:

Well, they were probably tempted to before... and then Radionova's music came on. That left more than a few people scratching their heads.
So it was good for Liza that she skated after Radionova.

Edit:
Liza uploaded this picture to her instagram after the SP, with the comments "AN (Alexei Nikolayevich) is more than just a coach. Thanks for the support friends!" (google translated):

Wow! That 3T-3T was HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE! :love:

Hail the Queen! :yay:
 
Too bad about the pops--she really could've won this! But ah well, silver at GP isn't bad for her comeback season, and she can still make GPF. Props to her for still nailing the 'tano 2A in sequence after she popped the salchow.

Judging by her reaction in the end, I think it's just a mental error? I mean, it's a been long time since she had to deal with the pressure of being the SP leader... she's more used to coming back in the free. I just hope her back isn't bothering her.
 
I think anyone would be exhausted given her schedule the past few weeks...

Not sure if anyone here has a VK account, but on her fanpage the admin wrote (translated from Russian): Dear Lisa !!!! We congratulate you with a silver medal !!! Lovely program !!! Lovely Lisa !!! Thank you so much !!! Only the beginning of the season, and you already spend a fourth consecutive start on a very tall level, demonstrating the strength of will, character, perseverance and endurance, being a role model to many !!! Well done !!! So keep !!! Health to you a huge, spiritual strength and inspiration to the next start !!!

Her response: Thank you very much for such kind words, and then I was a little upset after rolling since made a stupid mistake. But now my mood is much better thanks!
 
Thank you for sharing, Gallavich. I think it's good that she is not satisfied with the silver--she knows she could've done even better. But her smile during the victory ceremony seemed sincere, so hopefully she's not beating herself up over it.
 
I overslept and missed the FS. :(
Not gold but congrats to Liza nonetheless. She has come a long way in the past year and she can only get better!

Some comments from Mishin:

Tuktamysheva at Skate America is back among the best in the world - Mishin

"Evaluating the performance of Liza in America, we must proceed from the initial conditions, as mathematicians say, and this two-year transition period, spinal injury, ankle injury. Competition Skate America was for Lisa's fifth this season, one of which was unplanned - we replaced Anna Pogorilaya in Oberstdorf. Against the background of these statements, Lisa felt fatigue in America, it was hard, but I'm happy with how she coped. We can say that she returned to the holder of the strongest skaters of the world ", - said Mishin on the phone.

"Her return recognize and judge. Especially high marks put her in the short program, she set a personal record for accumulated points. And estimates for the components were the highest among all the states. So all is well," - added the coach.

According to Mishin, he has no doubt that the return Tuktamysheva - final. "Then it will be better. How much better - we'll see. But I want to note that we have now in the women's figure skating image by combination of very young athletes who did not pass during adolescence, and adult skaters. I believe that we must try to keep those and other" - concluded the expert."

Oh, papa Mishin!!! You are so smart and kind! And of course, congrats to Liza for the great comeback! I'm sure she will be better!
 
I think she did really well - and while I'd of course have loved it if she'd won, I'm still truly happy for her! Pity about the popped jumps, but... she still kept it together. I think the mistakes... well, it may sound an odd thing to say, but... were sort of good mistakes. I mean, if she had to make mistakes at all. Because I think they won't have sapped her confidence - and on the contrary I'm sure it will ignite an even greater fire in her - I'm sure she wants to come back and do even better! Anyway, we'll see in two weeks' time, I think?
 
Another interview with Mishin. This one is pretty interesting. :)


"Alexey, Liza was in the lead after the short program, what do you think happened in the free? Why she jumped double toe instead of a triple cascade, and then be blurred triple Salchow? You talked about being tired ...
- For some, the season just started, or not to start, and for Liza Tuktamysheva is already the fifth statement. History does not know the subjunctive mood, but I felt that we need to speak as much as possible, because if you bring her after a long break once on the Grand Prix ... No one knows how we would have in this case, it all came together ... Of course, the second place - not an absolute success, but the short program, I am very satisfied. And for the technique, and for the evaluation of the components - the highest! I was pleased to hear the assessment of authoritative experts, such as Alexander Lakernik (chapter Technical Committee ISU Single and Pair Skating - approx. Aut.). Lakernik said: "The deal with her, she has a good future." I think so too.

Yet it was noticeable stiffness when approaching the jump.
- Well, it is in vain you say so! Jumping Liza - hoo, and the course is very powerful, it is probably the best jumping!

Psychological stiffness.
- And this is perhaps the present, yes. So she lost the free to Radionova. Return to the camp of the guiding means their complexity. But most importantly, with the return of Liza Tuktamysheva the elite, our women's single skating cease to be a large cluster of small stars.

Small, naturally, not on talent ...
- And on age. I do this season very well, easy to operate. From me has fallen two large cargo. One of them - Zhenya Plushenko, and the second - guess who ... I am happy about the opening of our school in St. Petersburg, and the fact that another student of mine, Alexander Petrov, became the only Russian, reached the final round of the Junior Grand Prix. Artur Dmitriev, whom we, like Liza, faithfully restores - it also has powerful aspects ...

How you were able to return to the elite of Liza, given what she had to endure? Or is it the coaching secret?
- Why the secret? No secret. If we recall the origins of the season, the ankle was torn to shreds. Doctors do not what to jump, ride strictly forbidden! But we turned to a very good specialist from the clinic at the Russian Presidential Administration, to a variety of specialists, among whom were surgeons and therapists, and manualshchiki. Went to acupuncture treatments. We were there very much helped. Unfortunately, if before the federation to pay all expenses for medical treatment, but this year there was nothing like it is. And it's sad.

Elizaveta had injuries to her back and leg. Not to mention her morale. Do nothing at all worried?
- Absolutely nothing! Therefore, not shelving them, begin to prepare for the next stage, «Cup of China». Liza such a fate, that it always falls on the steps with a very strong composition.

On the «Cup of China» awaits Lipnitskaya. But someone consciousness forces opponents, in contrast, is mobilizing.
- To Elizaveta I often repeat what I said at the time to Zhenya Plushenko: "You can only lose to yourself."

My favorite skater is Yuna because not only is she an expressive skater, she also has perfect air position and jump height/ distance. textbook.
I saw Tuktamysheva and I've never seen any skater other Yuna who can jump with power! (besides guy skaters haha)
I would like to watch her perform to a slow song with elegant choreography one day :))

Love the statement in red. Thank you adelia for finding the interview. :)
Look forward to Liza's great performance at COC.
 
Thank you, adelia, for the interview with Mishin.

Having finally watched all the SkAm ladies' LPs, I must say I liked Liza's most in terms of performance (rivalled only by Samantha Cesario). She has a real spark and honesty--like she truly enjoys and believes in the program she skates to.
 
Was such a heartwarming experience seeing this determined young lady make her return this season. Nebelhorn looked promising, and seeing Skate America suggests continued momentum. Wishing her well ahead of what will clearly be the most competitive Ladies national competition anywhere in the world in December
