The stsq is my favourite part, and the choreo sequence the most stressful because I know the axels and the flip are coming right after and it's a scary thought. I was half looking when she was jumping those 3 jumping passes.
I was wondering where you were Fluture!
OMG, I was, too! Welcome back
Me too. Glad you are back.
Welcome back!
I turned away from this forum the last few days but I‘m back now. (Yes, after the competition has ended because I‘m a coward ) Just a few thoughts:
I love her programs. Obviously she was tired so everything wasn‘t perfect yet but she “competed“ at Test skates just a few days before... soo... who cares. And all I wanted was to see the programs with clean jumps and it happened so early, just a few tight landings. I‘ve been watching them over and over again for the past days. I think there‘s lots of things to add, her step sequence will look faster and sharper when she‘s not as tired. The choreo sequence is bright and beautiful. I also love the transition out of the second 3Lz, even if it got < and e...
For the costumes... It‘s kind of funny how Zhenya‘s splitting the FS community. (Again. Lol) Some either absolutely hate them (especially the SP) and others love them. Can I say that I do both? Like, they‘re amazing but they‘re also... not? Somehow? I fell in love with the FS dress the instant I saw it. It looks so intricate and I had envisioned something really different, with lots of pink and white. But I‘m not a fan of those dresses anyway, so I‘m happy. I knew the dress would be very complicated, with lots going on, that‘s just how the designer‘s dresses all are. I‘m not in love with the sleeves, they look kind of heavy and I wish we could see those amazing, detailed hand gestures she does better. The gloves hide them a bit. The SP bodysuit shows her lines and fits the song. I‘m not sure if I like the way it looks and it‘s so different from what I imagined that I guess, I‘ll just have to get used to it. But she‘s happy and that‘s the most important. Remember last year, when Tracy had to cut the stones from the SP dress last minute before the program? What a difference a year can make!
Now that Zhenya‘s first competition is over, I feel like I can finally relax. Until Shanghai Trophy. But I‘m glad she‘s competing a lot this year. The entry list for Shanghai Trophy is out, it seems? Looks like Eunsoo, Elizabet, Zhenya and two other ladies will compete? (Liang Yi and Hongyi Chen? - sorry if the spelling is off, I read them from an instagram story) No sixth entry?
And here‘s a Tracy and Zhenya meme just because I found it funny:

Speaking of other places, has anyone noticed that the exact same fans who were tearing Zhenya to shreds back in February when she beat Liza at the Cup Final and earned the spot at Worlds are now bashing Liza’s skating in every way imaginable because she dared to threaten one of their favorites over he weekend? None of these people ever cared about Liza for one minute, she was simply used to push an agenda against Zhenya. It’s disgusting if you ask me and it only proves how biased that entire discussion was.

The problem is that people, the press and even the Federation itself have raised a certain coach to the altars and people are convinced that her methods are the best and that only her skaters have the right to get spots and win medals. And any other skater who pretends one of those spots is seen as an enemy.
In addition, of course, of their deep hostility and contempt for Zhenya.
Schedule for Shanghai Trophy is out:
- Ladies Short program: Thursday 20:25 (8:25pm) to 21:10 (9:10pm) local time
- Ladies Free Skate: Friday: 20:00 (8pm) to 20:53 (8:53pm) local time.
Means 2AM for me.
