Really... i love Visotsky, but if you want to exchange songs, send me a PM... very few people outside of Russia know who Visotsky is, or how it is relevant to skating...

So?
Do you mean he should be included in the “unscrupulous parties” list? (LOL)
Who else?
What about those skaters who skated to R&J - like Hanyu did?![]()
It started lol...

I'm thrilled for Kostornaia. She is an exquisite skater and I can't wait to see her in seniors.
I love Trusova too. Fierce and gutsy, with a lot of personality.![]()
I like all 3, for different reasons. Scherbakova had her first GPF, she seemed confused by the "grandness of the event". Just before leaving for Vancouver, there was a show at the rink (celebrating 15 years of Khrystalniy rink anniversary). Scherbakov had a great skate.. (SP) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bz9LN-xvEUQI most enjoyed the presentation of Scherbakova. She doesn’t skate as big and powerful as Kostornaya, but she really feels the music. Pity about the falls and also the mistakes in the SP, but she is one of the few skaters I would enjoy to watch even if she didn’t jump at all.
Last season my favourite presentation was from Tarakanova. I love the fire in her, but unfortunately I didn’t feel that this season she skated with such abandon. She is much more cautious. It may be that she grew up a bit and is adjusting to her body.I like all 3, for different reasons. Scherbakova had her first GPF, she seemed confused by the "grandness of the event".

14 people seconded this questionFor god's sake, can we get a different thread for this Med/Zag drama please?
Yes, thank you, Amantide. You say: "about the same skaters even". I also think, that Tarasova just talks like this - and often she doesn't even notice, that she isn't polite. I really think she is naive. I can't say, that I like every word from her, yet I see, that she loves people, actually. I'm sure it is more important than her mistakes.Many times I haven't been in agreement with TAT either. She has said some pretty strong stuff as well, about some skaters. Sometimes she speaks good and sometimes she speaks bad, about the same skaters even.I don't like it but for some reason I can never stay mad with her.

As far as I know "The Bear" in one of Yagudin's nicknames. Not in Russia. It is because of Tarasova and her fur coats.She really is like a big teddy bear mamma
Well, as for me, I was really amazed by these Bestemianova's interviews and I wasn't going to defend her. Yet anyway you are right, Lala, if you want to remember you have a reason to be grateful to her. Thank you!!Hanyu started to amaze me with that program at WCH 2012. So I respect Besti because of it I wanted to make one good point for her after that trash talk in the TV show.
you flatter me, you give me more attention than skating and skaters..the text

Tbh I have seen some bloody fights between Duhamel/Radford and Stolbova/Klimov fans back in 2014-15. But it's on a much smaller scale. I think it's because pairs is kind of the underrated discipline of the four, and not so many people watch it.
I double that.its rare to have the male skater who is the star of the pair team than the lady
I double that.
Same goes for Rylov and Ialin for me.
The RUS junior pairs guys are mesmerizing (as well as their ladies) and I can't wait for their progress in the year to come. They are all so different. That should be some fun.
not excited yet about the other russian junior pairs, the girls are just too tiny and pre pubescent and the guys aren't that tall either to survive any future girl's puberty hurdles.
Ugh, couldn't he join someone else's group
Get lucky once and suddenly a whole program has to suffer for years as a result. I really hope these younger teams, who have nothing to do with her, start putting the metal to the pedal and make it so undeniable that the Russian fed. will have to dismantle whatever domination they helped her build. With her as leader Russian pairs went nowhere![]()
Fill me in. What is it that Mozer has done to pairs? (This is a genuine question-- just thought I'd clarify in case anyone thinks I'm being passive aggressive
)

senior ready or in transition Boikova / Kozlovski, Pavylyuchenko/Khodykin and Mishina/Galliamov are the ones that have prospects for the future.
