I did a bit of digging and found some videos from a Russian Cup event in 2010 (still from 2010-11 season, but they aren't included in the current list).

He had a good season and now I can't wait for his new programs for the next. Hopefully, we'll see improvement in terms of choreography and expression.

Interesting fact: Maxim was born the EXACT same day as me. Not just the same birthday. But the same year as well.
 
I like him too. :) Are we ready for his breakout year?
 
I really liked him in the nationals. You could tell how dedicated he was this time. He had more energy this time than in all 3 grand prix events. And thank god, he changed the spiderman costume. If he keeps this up, I may become a fan.
 
I'm not happy about Machida's retirement, but this definitely improves Maxim's chances for medaling at Worlds.
 
watched Maxim's ex at national's gala, surprisingly like it. it is kinda dorky and amusing, :biggrin: you can tell he is indeed trying to improve his blade work and use of whole body.
