Alexei Mishin: "We take the decision to include a triple axel in the program Tuktamysheva the end of January" http://www.sports.ru/others/figure-skating/1026376838.html
I don't think so. I think the latest news is that she'll continuing practicing it (for her SP), but Europeans is too soon.Sooo... Liza will pull an 3A in Europe? So excited!
But they say "at the end of January"???I don't think so. I think the latest news is that she'll continuing practicing it (for her SP), but Europeans is too soon.
Mishin meant that they'll make the decision whether to include it or not at the end of January.But they say "at the end of January"???
Russian figure skater Elizabeth Tuktamysheva spoke about the preparations for the European Championships.
"As long as every day is obtained in different ways - like, trying to collect a triple axel, do jump in different states, but still my thought that its inclusion in the program for such an important start, as the European Championship - too risky step.
At first I did not believe I could do immediately axel, because I remember my first steps in the study of this element, and it seemed to me that once again will repeat the old story. But, apparently, I became stronger, and all got a little easier.
In the short program, I do a cascade of two triple toe and triple Lutz, and as these elements are not me so hard, add to them a triple axel is more or less impossible. It's all really just need a little time practicing "- quoted Tuktamysheva" R-Sport. "
Hm... Hasn't Google translate got it completely backwards this time?
"In the short program, I do a cascade of two triple toe and triple Lutz, and as these elements are not me so hard, add to them a triple axel is more or less impossible."
She said that because those jumps weren't so hard for her, she thought it was possible to add a 3A to them - Google says that because they aren't hard it's basically impossible to add the 3A! I think we all know what she meant, but.... just a note - especially to self - never to get to complacent in trusting Google translate!
Thank you!Yes, Google translations are funny. Here please see my full translation:
Lisa tells about he preparation for the European championship: 'So far every day is different, I am doing 3A now successfully in different set-ups but I still think that to include it into my programs at such important start as Euros will be too risky.
At the beginning I did not believe that I would be able to do 3A at all, I remembered my first steps in learning this element and I thought this time would be as hard as was then. But it looks like I've got stronger now and everything went a bit easier. In my sp I do 3T+3T and 3Ltz and as these elements are not that difficult for me, I manage to execute 3A successfully in addition to them more or less every time. It is all realistic just a bit more time required for polishing.'
Note: I concentrated on conveying the meaning rather than a word to word translation as Russian is impossible to translate that way without losing some meaning.
