Team Eteri Tutberidze

Eduard looks much better after the free than after the SP:

And OK, Lyuba and Aislik should not be ignorted. While Lyuba's result remained behind expectations I presume, it was a debut at the age of 12. And she landed 3A in the free and 3Lz -+3Lo both in the SP and the FS.

And Aislik did very well and finally landed two clean quads again.

And Nikolai's free skate, the best skate of the day (medal was missed just by one point):

Kolya already has a 3A. I hope he will be able to put it into his programs soon.

 

[Azikin]

Whoa... I expected Alisa to become better than Alysa but not so quickly...

Aislik is simply cute

Lyuba's 3A+2T in a warm-up:

Thay were surpringly harsh on Adelia. Wonder if there are politics involved like wanting a skater from each three top Moscow clubs. "One Sofia from each" -policy

Maybe they don't think it's good that one club dominates too much. Or maybe I'm being a conspiricy theorist

I have already read the theory that Eteri was offered to replace any of her skaters in the Olympic team with a skater from another school, but she refused, and now she has been defiantly retaliated.

Even if this is true, the judges' decisions will never change anyway.

I can't imagine what could be offered to her against the possibility of the olympic podium sweep. I doubt there is a price that could outweigh that.

In the Nationals, the three coaches hugged after Sasha's FP, I guess they considered Sasha to be the most vulnerable and must feel relieved, thinking that Sasha would be safe for her spot in the Olympics team. Next, they were on alert after Anna's unexpected skate. Only after the Euro did they feel completely safe that all three girls would go to Beijing. No way would Eteri accept anything that would jeopardize the three girls chance.

Well, it really is a conspiracy theory. Or another fragment of the legend about Eteri, which is gradually being created before our eyes.
