They did a great job in SD today. For some reason ISU haven't downloaded their video yet but I am sure they will at some point.
Anyway, they scored about 61 points which is their PB. This was also their 1st time when they scored above 60 points. Well done.

Yay, a 1st JGP victory for them. A disappointing FD score but they won which is all that matters.

An interview with them (3 weeks old, in Russian and nice to watch even without language skills). Nevertheless maybe can someone make a summary of the interview.
New interview of Svetlana Liapina, their coach.

for posting. Interesting interview despite the garbled Google translation.. especially regarding Sophia's FD Swan Lake ballet costume and how much the dance was inspired by the film. They really seemed to enjoy their Lake Placid experience.
They made it to the JGP Final but they didn't win JGP Italy which was disappointing. They did score a new PB but it is a disappointing fact that they have the weakest PB among all the teams who have made it to the JGP Final.

So they were at the Open Andorra 2017 this week-end and won the junior competition.
Here is the results page. Levels were not very good especially in the SD, I'm starting to worry about them
There are no video AFAIK but Alex posted a picture of them with their medals on Instagram. Sofia has a new FD costume and it's a vast improvement from the old one IMO.

Honestly, I have no words, 4th again and (probably) no Junior Worlds...
After beating all of the Russian teams but Skoptsova/Aleshin at the GPF they get ditched again!!! What do they have to do to medal at nationals? I bet if Khudaiberdieva/Nazarov skated well they would have been in front too. Plus Shpilevaya/Smirnov were I injured. So Russia thinks of them as only their 7th best team
