I think its likely she could get back to a high level. Her growth spurt gave her lots of troubles but maybe she just needed time to get used to her new physique. Shes really not anomalously big or tall - hopefully she has adapted by now.

If this season goes poorly for her though then shes most likely finished.

Looks like Sofia is getting back her 3A. Will she participate to the European championship in a few months?

She jumped a 4S as well.

Unlikely. The earliest Rus Fed is even willing to consider her release request is in December and the last competition counting for Euros TES minimums is Latvia Trophy (December 8-10).

Shouldn't she compete at Four Continents, if she represents Kazakhstan? Euros is not a possibility.

i don't think she can compete at 4CC, but likely to compete at worlds if she gets her release

You’re right. It should be the 4CC which is more competitive than the Euros. And in theory she has more time to earn the TES minimums (until Jan 09 I think)

Yes, you're right, I just answered the question about Euros without thinking about it.

But, the last competition for minimums remains the same, as there are no international competitions between December 11th and January 18 apart from Europeans.

I hope so. I would love to see her at Boston Worlds 2025.
