Medvedeva is imo the best female skater of all time. Only Mao Asada of past days can be compared to her. Not even Kim Yu-Na, Carolina Kostner or Shizuka Arakawa had reached her level.
Medvedeva, Zagitova look so juniorish and overscored - boring to watch . Anna Pogorilaya and Sotskova were the best! Beautiful skaters. From juniors I liked Fedichkina and Gubanovam- pleasant to watch.

That spread eagle with butt sticking out.It's the intention of Zhenya's choreography to appear juniorish at the beginning of her program. It's the story she's telling, how she grows from a young girl to a woman. And she does it perfectly IMO. The spread eagle with the head roll is my EVERYTHING!!
Tarasova needs to write books.
What a description of Gubanova's skate! (no time to translate, might do later )
with this kind of statement, you should brace yourself for a major sh--storm.
Anyone have a link to protocols?
She did skate better than GPF but was that skate worthy of 79? I don't know. In all cases I do think she deserves her win. But her scores make it as if she is the perfect skater ever which is doubtful.
different rumours about itWhat is wrong with Liza N.? I miss her.
different rumours about it
the offcial one is that she was already ill at JGPF & still isnt healthy
& nehind the scenes one - that she doesnt train enough & coaches decided to punish her for that...
well I can see how it CAN possibly be a problemWow....I hope the second one is not true. She's one of my favorites. Then again, if she doesn't train enough, maybe not being allowed to compete will help her learn her lesson?
Yep. Her parents are from Kharkov.
