I feel like an overprotective nanny. When I saw that pic, I even didn't notice TAT. I just went, "No, Liza, don't wear heels, they're bad for your back!" :slink: :drama: :laugh:

And I feel like an overprotective dad, the first thing I thought was "That's a ...pretty short dress young lady":laugh:
 
I have seen live...That was a great skating! She is always so cute in K&C :)
You saw her live? I'm envious right now!

I'm a bit worried if Liza will have enough firepower to beat Elena tomorrow. I guess it'll depend on how the jump GOEs work out... Anyway, that's not a big deal, I just hope she stays in the Top 2 and goes to both Europeans and Worlds.
 
I have really enjoyed watching her this season. Kinda bummed that I can't watch her skate RN live. I hope she pulls it out.
 
I'm worried about her knee. But I think her Euros and Worlds spots are safe.

Liza has had a terrific season. Her resurgence has been awesome to watch. I think she is an amazing technician. I marvel over her jumps, I feel like skaters now a days( with the exception of a very few) jump smaller. I hope she does well and her knee pain is nothing serious. She has had a busy season.
 
A new interview with Alexei Mishin was published:

It's quite lengthy, so I'll just quote the portion that is directly about Liza, but the full interview is well worth reading if you are a Mishin fan. Did you know he produces wine? :biggrin:

Elizabeth Tuktamysheva want to "eat cake tomorrow"

- Elizabeth Tuktamysheva in December reached the age of majority, not only in figure skating: just before the New Year she was 18 years old. In Barcelona this month it was "one wicket" won the Grand Prix Final. There is a belief: the victory of the students - the best gift the coach ...
- I have to put it more broadly, such achievements as winning the championship of Russia, Grand Prix, especially as the final gold of the European Championship, World, Olympic Games - a gift for life coach. Because career coach is measured by these milestones. In the future, perhaps, Lisa will master the triple axel for women - an element that we had planned to cook. I think, in one form or another, we will show it soon. What stops me - fear of injury. Who tournaments follow one another - it is impossible to take a break, take the time to learning the triple Axel. But this eternal question in sports in general and in particular in figure skating: you can prepare to eat the cake tomorrow or the day after a big cake. Here we still want to "eat cake tomorrow."

- But Elizabeth Tuktamysheva some experts criticized the fact that it makes little gestures and movements between jumps ...
- music ministry does not tolerate noise. You look at an American Ashley Wagner: it does not "izgalyatsya" on ice. Ashley did not jerk his arms and legs, on the other hand, gives the impression of the female skiing. And who is not capable, compensates for the "gestures". And do not in order to create a play, a masterpiece of figure skating, but in order to satisfy the tastes of the judges. The problem is that sometimes counting the number of gestures define a crucial role in the perception of the program. When your program is ready Alexei Yagudin, Plushenko, Alesya Urmanov, even earlier - Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean, Lyudmila Belousova and Protopopov Alex, they conceived them as a colorful show for people. In my opinion, such a path in figure skating can exist, but not for long.

- And you expect from Elizabeth Tuktamysheva gifts or surprises directly to the New Year?
- I have a very good relationship with the students, since such athletes as Oleg Tataurov, Alexei Urmanov, Alexei Yagudin, Plushenko, trust my wife Tatiana Mishina. By the way, when we are in the "Jubilee" opened the school of figure skating, Plushenko called and said, just before the New Year in Miami will be a concert Russian stars. And it will make Dima Bilan. And my great friend Mikhail Kuznetsov, who lives in the US, asked to help with tickets. So Plushenko promised: a magnificent table, prepared by Jana Rudkovskoj, Mikhail Vyacheslavovich provide. ... And Lisa is no exception - it too closely and carefully apply to me and for the holidays.
 
I didn't know that Mishin produces wine.. I knew he has a "dacha". I'm really curious of that wine. :yes: St. Petersburg is located in the north. There doesn't prepare the best wines. But Mishin is probably very proud of his own wine ..;)
