Evgenia Medvedeva

I am really, really curious to see her new FS layout and what they decided to use in the bonus. I think her SP layout may have stayed the same, but I hope they have upgraded her FS tech a little!

My bet is two combos in the bonus zone. 3F3lo is the only option (correct me if i´am wrong) for a upgrade without fixing her lutz.

3F3Lo
2A
3Lz
2A
3F3Tx
3Lo2t2Lox
3Sx
 
This is the layout I want her to do, unless she does a 3Lo-3Lo (which would change 3Lo-2T-2Lo to 3F-2T-2Lo)
 
Yes, It is! More precisely, it's from the interview she did after the show ;)

I think I remember something about that now! Wasn’t she sitting with other skaters on the ice rink, and she had an interpreter? I never knew exhibition skating tours existed until then, what with being a new fan and ice skating being almost non existent in the UK. I’m glad she did a ton of shows and tours during the long offseason, including newly made EX programs. [emoji4]
 
The whole purpose of test skates is to impress RusFed. Their opinion have a huge impact on assignments, funding and political backing overall. That's why it's crucial to show your weapons and do as well as possible on the test skates. A "basic" programme won't cut the mustard.

Thanks for your comment! This makes sense now. :) I was thinking differently about it.
 
Re the test skates: Evgenia’s main goal is to show her best to her federation and to use the test skate as a way to assess where she is in her preparation for the season. The point isn’t using the test skates as a weapon in a war against her ex coach who, as I’ve said previously, will also be busy doing her job with her skaters.

This next season is all about Zhenya’s growth as an athlete and a performer, not about a futile war.

True! True! It’s my brains fault. My brain is working in other sport techniques on strategy with competitors. This had nothing to do with previous threads about the past but just with sports strategy in general which might be alien to skating really. You are right. I am still new as a fan of skating so I have a lot to learn. I guess the biggest competitor you have when you think about it is yourself when skating.

Yes, I believe she did a joint interview with Alina. I have also enjoyed her performances at the ice shows, but now I'm so ready for the season to start! I want to see Zhenya competing again :love:


LOL, throwing some serious shapes there! :rofl:
 
Ahah I was joking! I sure hope Orange Colored Sky won't open with a Michael Jackson move :laugh:

lol and here I was thinking why I didn't remember anything like that :palmf:

I wish someone sneak in to the test skates for sp - or brian will record it for us :pray:

Same here I’m excited for her season to begin and see how it all unfolds! [emoji4]
 
Does anyone know if Evgenia is friends with Liza Tuktamysheva? I just started following Liza on Instagram and she has a wicked sense of humor, which actually reminded me of Zhenya. I know they used to compete together so they’re probably friendly

2 weeks until the test skates!

All the female Russian skaters know each other since it’s a tight-knit group. But Liza is 3 years older than Jenya so they were not able to compete against each other that much. Liza also trains in St Petersburg so that’s another thing. I wouldn’t call them friends but they are associates of sorts. Liza congratulated Jenya about going to Orser though :D

You picked a good week to start following her; she's been on fire with those last three skating posts. :laugh2:

Yeah, like elizabehj37 said, they don't seem to be friends, per se, but there doesn't seem to be any ill will either, and yeah, they definitely know each other.
