Evgenia Medvedeva

On one hand, I want her to be able to train without pressure for months. On the other hand, I want to see Tosca and her new dresses again.

Whatever is meant to be will happen. When/how/where do they announce the Euros team?
 
I'm not an expert on step sequences at all but I was curious too so I just spent half an hour examining her steps at half speed :laugh: I think she missed the 'two different combinations of 3 difficult turns on different feet' feature; her first attempt is LBI counter - LFI counter - LBI rocker (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6vtj_Wl9_0 at 4:00), but it looks like she changes edge before the rocker, turning it into an LBO three turn instead (changes of edge and three turns are both not allowed). Her next combination is RFO twizzle - RBI rocker - RFI rocker (at 4:19), which looks fine to me so I guess the first attempt/change of edge did get called. Or it's a different reason entirely, in which case feel free to correct me :)
Wow, you are amazing!!! I know all the jumps, but for the life of me I would never be able to do that. Thank You.

I just want one more competition, but not Worlds. Too much pressure. Euros is good in another month, then end the season. Or World Team Trophy in April, plenty of time.
 
Do the Russian federation not take into account the previous success rate of the skaters and the potential scoring ability of their programs? It seems strange to me that she wouldn’t be sent to Euros having just pulled from 14th to 7th overall and 4th in the FS up against two girls with quads and girls who started in very secure top places. She has done this on more than one occasion this season, so her scoring potential is still very much there?

Well, strictly speaking two spots are decided by who ranks first at the Nationals and one spot is up to the Fed. That spot should rightfully go to Liza this season, except of course if Liza's not fit enough to go to Euros. Then there might still be a chance.
 
What a good fight she put up! And I loved her 3S-3Lo combo and was stunned at how good it was :luv17:
 
No matter what the Russian figure skating federation decides, Medvedeva delivered the best free skate of this season today. I think she's getting back to her old self and she deserves to be put on the national team along with Alina.
 
I know opinions on TAT are highly controversial, but I love their relationship. It's really sweet and she does seem in an almost unofficial post a sort of consultant for their new team. Seeing her support her through everything has been very touching.

It was delightful to see her passionate support by the sidelines while Evgenia was skating. I love TAT.
 
Let’s give it up for Evgenia’s costume maker.... after 4 different SP dresses and 3 different FP dresses, we finally have the best dresses of the season! :agree:

Also, Evgenia please keep your FP hairstyle. Not only does it fit your program, it has also been a lucky one this season ;)

Ladu Design did the second and third FS dress and third SP dress. All three were amazing dresses. Evgenia can definitely can keep her as a dress maker ;)

Ladu did the new FS dress too? Wow, she sure knows how to work on a tight timeline!
