Maria Sotskova

I really wished she didn't used that Bauil-esque dress :laugh:

but oh well, the girl got 200 for her first GP! Great job to Masha! Really hoping that she qualifies for the final~ :cheer:
 
I remember Maria and Zhenia were together at their JGP debut in Riga in 2013! They are the remaining two of fantastic four from that season's junior stars.

I think Maria should change her dress. Something dark blue would suit this program very well!
 
New interview. She and her mom picked the designs of both dresses and her mom helped make them (as best she could). Awe :dance2: http://fsrussia.ru/intervyu/2570-ma...ak-na-obychnyj-start-no-volnovalas-silno.html

I don't think that pink dress is going anywhere since she loves it. And the Russians did it again! They found the inspiration for the design of her LP dress. It looks stunning on the model :love:

Stunning on the model but it didn't translate well on her. :devil: I do think the nude meshing is partly to blame though. And also the ruffles....
I do love the colour on her though. :agree:
 
Congrats to Masha for a great GP debut! She was tense but that's something to work on and the PCS will increase accordingly.
She's always been overlooked in Russian Juniors, but hopefully she has a breakout year!
~Please make the final!!~
 
Did some early morning calculations thanks to Ashley Wagner.

For Maria to qualify for GPF she needs at least 4th and for one of Satoko or Wakaba to finish no higher than 3rd. She should really root for Pogo (or herself ;)) to finish ahead of either Satoko or Wakaba and pray hard that Satoko and Wakaba don't go 1 and 2.

If Satoko and Wakaba go 1 and 2 and Maria 3rd, the 2nd place finisher would enter a tiebreak with Maria and winner will be based off total score between the two.

So there is a good chance for her to qualify if she skates well :biggrin:

We should root for her and Pogo to be on the podium :hap10: or at least Pogo 1st/2nd and Maria 4th ;) Good luck ladies!!! :agree:
 
NHK SP https://youtu.be/GlwAqOx_zAI

Congrats on the new SB and improved PCS :yahoo:

ETA: Ah man, we could have broken 70 if her steps were called a level 4 like at TdF. We were sooooo close :sad4: I hope her team fixes that. Judges LOVE her layback spin though, 3 threes and nothing below a 2 :biggrin:

Masha was amazing! I was hoping she would have got above 70 points but she will get that (and more) at next event.

What an awewsome SP. That was really well deserved, she's really grown in confidence with this program, and you can see that in the finer details of the choreography also. Hope she bring that in the FS also and maybe in with a chance of Gold? Here's hoping.
 
Butterflies WERE free yesterday. I love that program and she managed to improve her performance every competition.

Good luck for the free, and (hopefully) we'll see her in Marseilles!
 
Killed on TES (3 under-rotations, 1 downgrade) :hopelessness: but those PCS :eek: 3+ points increase :yahoo:

Now I wish they would move her 2nd lutz to another place in her LP or just replace it entirely. Three competitions in, 2 under-rotations and a downgrade :scowl: That can be the difference between getting that 3rd spot for Euros or staying at home :hopelessness:

ETA: make that 4 under-rotations, 1 downgrade :palmf:
