Huge congrats to Zhenya for finishing 8th at the freaking Olympics!
In my personal ranking he even had a top 5 finish, because I maintain PCS judging is not real.

TERRIFIC DEBUT

I expected the worst after everything that happened last month (I mean, he even closed his IG comments for a while) but he did GREAT

Tbh, he was even slower than usual but didn't miss any levels in both programs (the second time after Sochi).

The professor fixed his 4S! I was surprised reading practice notes because there weren't any double sals, even though he tends to pop this jump in both practice and competition. He started using a different entry, and I think it helped (honestly, I really like this kind of entries, didn't expect this from someone from Russia especially from Zhenya). The Axels were great too. His best Axels this season.

Unfortunately, Mishin said in interview that Zhenya had a back problems. But I hope it's nothing serious because, Zhenya was laughing when he talked about it.

He has improved his WS rank. Should be first among Russian men at the end of this season/beginning of the next.

And, I guess, good luck at Worlds?

Yaass Zhenya S!

I'm so happy for him! Still a big fan of the program! It's about a guy going crazy after all so Zhenya S's crazy skating suits it Good times.

I wonder if he'll be invited to Gala!

No

No

Aw shame. But Vincent is?! Off topic but I hope that means he's tested negative (although he still missed out on the event )

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

A pity. However, I think it's a nice touch they invited Vincent.

 

[AlexBreeze]

He'll be invited at next Olympics!

Btw, they didn't invite Jun, Daniel and Jason as well.

Good competition from Evgeny! He really made me a fan this season. I read in the competition thread that he speaks three languages? Which? And who is also studying medicine?

German and English in addition to Russian (why do i remember useless trivia?)

 

[prorussian fan]

What a smart and nice boy!
And he is also studying Medicine.
I wish him the best and a long skating career if he wishes.

Awww, little Zhenya and dear Artur (who btw had a pretty rough time recently. He was in hospital and had to have back surgery).

I don't have the slightest idea about K-pop, but I hope Zhenya gets a kick out of that!

Zhenya talking about his experiences at the Olympics on St. Petersburg TV (comes with auto-generated subtitles). I love the little Bing Dwen Dwen stuffy you can see in the background! The whole interview is really sweet.
