Like they didn't make serious mistakes in both the SD and FD.
Meanwhile the list of Russian dancers who couldn't transition successfully to senior is as long as my arm - Yanovskaya/Mozgov, Zenkova/Sinitsin, Sinitsina/Zhiganshin, Stepanova/Bukin, Pushkash/Guerrerro, Monko/Khaliavin etc etc
To be honest, Monko got injurd and retired, Stepanova/ Bukin are not the gold winners as Papdakis/Cizeron, but can end this season in the first 10 at Worlds.
