This is a great explanation of why I/k need to break up and find better partners for each other or so Elena can retire and be morozovs wife which is her main interest.
Seriously?!?! Now you're being just as silly as the scoring for their FD.

Somehow however they need to get the past out of their heads and move on. They were simply sublime in Paris, so I am not quite ready to write them off. Besides in their post fd interview Nik mentioned that their skates clashed, maybe they were just going for too much.

The team is toxic and always fails.
Nope! They showed they have become a toxic combo.
Free Nikita from the horrible morozov illynik monster!
Someone or maybe both of them just stink and are horrible..
With the extreme disasters increasing in frequency and the team becoming a model of failed potential and lack of success it would be best if they all went their separate ways
They failed with zhulin ,they are failing with morozov , what's the real problem? They've already changed coaches.
They start the season with a virtual all level 2 SD and look like incompetent boobs at this nationals just like they did in 2013 worlds.
They may practice for a day or two and then Elena may go on a trip with morozov and be a couple and then I/k can practice again.

It's not as silly as them still being a team.
LOL. At least your posts never fail to bring a smile back to my face.
They aren't the second best team in Russia. This belief is wrong and is blocking better teams like s/z and s/b! It's time to end their place as second because they may practice for a day or two and then Elena may go on a trip with morozov and be a couple and then I/k can practice again.
Wooden Valeria Zenkovo / Valery Sinitcin beat Catherine Puskas / Jonathan Ghurair - time for Jonathan to find a new partner.
Sorry for using the auto-translation of names, it's easier than looking them up, and my spelling isn't good in English.
I think Stepanova / Bukin are more mismatched than I/K
Bukin is amazing but Stepanova has bad posture and isn't as good in skating skills
and she is getting taller every year
ITA Jonathan is 187 cm tall. All these girls who have grown too tall for their short partners should consider skating with Jonathan.
Does anyone know where the protocols can be found? I surely would like to see how the tech panel/judges managed to get 99 points out of that hot mess that I&K skated.

Have you found another couple or pair that are mismatched, sky_fly20? So let me see, Monko/Khaliavin, Davankova/Deputat, now Stepanova/Bukin... There is definitely something wrong with the way you see the world!
When Ilynikh and Morozov got together, she was 17. Now I don't think that a relationship where one person is younger and other is older is immoral and it's not my place to judge anyway. Ilynikh was above the age of consent (which is 15 in Russia) and if she wanted to enter that relationship, more power to her. She also had her mother's blessings (she said that she approves and that Ilynikh will be in good hands). But because Morozov was her coach, there was a power imbalance there and it would be easy for him to take advantage of her (not saying that is what happened but it's a possibility and that is why in some countries the age of consent is 18 if it's a student-teacher kind of relationship).
As for them breaking up, do you know of any available male partners at Ilynikh's level? I don't.
I am sure you are wrong, you are pointing position where free leg is aside body and skater hold that leg.
Lena position is different - on page 27 -
Difficult Variations of Basic Position Camel (examples):
Body bent forward to the spinning leg and free leg extended backward and upward up to almost
a full split (with the angle between thighs about 180 degrees);- Lena had about 150-160 degrees
Fairness to Ilinykh, angle between her thighs are looking like 180 degrees. They can also get level with simple camel position. A lot of other teams are doing that. (For example Virtue/Moir) This is very easy to fix If something isn't right.
Position
…by the way the third lift which is rotational, there is a moment when a Lena stays at Nikita’s shoulders which is illegal movement looking at
