She shows great promise, especially with her country's support and a good coach. But I hope she gains some weight or grows taller: she is s.......o tiny, which makes me feel she is still a junior. I noticed in the most recent competition, her jumps did not look as good as at Junior Worlds earlier this year, with the same program. Probably her nation is pushing her to compete at the senior level as early as possible. She may have a similar career path as Denis Ten: great skater from a non-traditional figure skating nation, with tremendous support from home country. Being so young, time and resources is on her side. Good luck.

Very exciting talent. I love the idea of her competing for ice space with Javi and often beating him to the jumping spot, according to Orser in another recent interview. Roll on Skate America!

thanks for the article! i knew she had visa problems and all but didnt know she had to train at shopping mall without a coach (except competition practices), and the progress she made after she finally moved to Toronto is amazing, adding 2nd Lz to the free and 3Lz3T to her SP!
she seems very mature and has strong personality, having set big goals such as finishing school ahead of time so she can focus on skating, plans to get involved in charity after she retires, , and we will see her compete a lot this season including Youth Olympics and Junior Worlds !!
i hope she wont over train though, good luck Elizabet

She has such a light lyrica quality tht reminds me a bit of Yuna Kim and some of the balletic types like Czisny or a classical Suguri - delicate yet powerful. I am sad to hear she didn't skate for Russia but the competition would have been tough - I just think she has sucha beautiful presesnce on the ice she would really add to the Rusian team whose skaters right now aren't that lyrical ironically.

She was my favorite to watch at USFSC. Two solid programs and a wonderful sense of maturity. Hoping she does great this season!!!
