When the heads of the country are involved in the coverup it would be very difficult for anyoneAgreed. Stop me if I'm wrong, but figure skating doesn't seem to be the most incriminated sport when it comes to performance enhancing drugs. A blanket ban would be ridiculous. Yet they have to do something or else it's a free for all, everyone uses whatever illegal shit they want and competition becomes meaningless. That means a thorough investigation, checking on everyone and sharing results publicly. It's a huge job but it'd be time and money well spent to lift the cloud of suspicion.

This is a promising attempt. We are working on it. Nowadays they [others] do quad lutzes as well. This is Liza's interim achievement. As for whether the jump will be performed this season, I can't say for now.
Please, understand, everything is possible. This is a concrete example of the thesis that age is not an obstacle. As a coach I am in a respectable age, so is Liza as an athlete. We are an example that it's never late for new accomplishments.

The problem that the international sports officials keep finding is that if someone did decide to dope everyone in Russian sports leadership would support them in their doping. Even a skater! This is why they keep saying “Russia is failing its athletes” because they would all support them if they did start dopingAgreed.

Now we know who caseyedwards really is.
Nobody called Jason Brown "a lady" or "skating like a lady" or said his skating is "not man-like".I would not call Brown a lady. Too many quads in ladies now
There's a WADA discussion thread in Other Sports with articles, etc.: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/th...2020-olympics-what-about-beijing-2022.106324/...And that is only the starting point in terms of WADA’s many flaws.

Alexei Krasnozhon gave few interviews while at GP in Russia, to Sport24 channel and written ones. I will not translate it, because a lot of it is very silly, and superficial, a young man trying to show off and to sound analytical while saying several silly and incorrect critique of both USA and Russia, like he was surprised that medicine costs money in USA (while his own father is a private doctor in RussiaI'm loving Mishin more and more. Liza and Sofia are so lucky to have a coach like him. It's interesting that Alexei Krasnozhen said that skaters were treated poorly in Mishin's group- maybe this is just for the men or Alex has a bad attitude, however it seems clear that Mishin treats his female skaters very well. He made other comments on how Sofia is dealing with puberty and it seems as if he's trying to ease her through it. Even when Liza went through puberty, he said that you needed to be careful not to injure the athlete [paraphrasing- he said you had to be careful with puberty].

I do admire though skaters like Pluschenko, who always follow their coaches instructions, and don't make excuses.... but they are like no-brain soldiers (mindless)...

. And etc.. He was being a young proud "peacock", trying to sound important and tough..But that's not the point.
In one of the interviews he explained why he left Mishin and left the country.
- When he was 13 he skated at the Russian Cup final, there were 12 boys including him, 11 were given JGP assignments, and he was the only one who was not. AK: "My coaches (Mishins) and i could not understand why, but that's what federation decided, because they probably had other plans, and that's what gave me a push to leave."
"- AK: and the second reason is that it was not working out for with Mishin. He is a very talented coach, he is great. But i am probably more like Yagudin, i constantly need solid (exclusive) support. I don't need a dog trainer, i am not a dog. I do admire though skaters like Pluschenko, who always follow their coaches instructions, and don't make excuses.... but they are like no-brain soldiers (mindless), and that's not me. I need to be supported (protected, cheered for), if i don't get that from a coach i simply can't skate and can't perform.
Q: Did you not get that in Russia (from Mishin)?
AK: Alexei Nikolaevich stood all the way behind me, like a mountain (gave me full solid support), but i was not his only student. He had other (male) skaters. I was not his sole student. But i want (need) is to be the sole (only) student of a coach.
So, the story about "abuse and mistreatment and neglect in Mishin's camp" is a strange one. A lot of people come to USA and use "evil Russia" as an excuse to get sympathy and as an excuse for their own fails, and they also know that Americans love to hear that someone left "evil Russia for good America", it gets you further ...![]()
Moskvina on Eteri:
-Did she use swear words?
- Have you had an opportunity to interact with Eteri?
- I can't say we are friends but we have crossed paths. I went up to her at a competition once and said : " Eteri would not it be better to change her (Eteri's skater) ponytail?" Her hair was in a ponytail. Eteri told me why it was not possible
I wouldn't want to repeat why.
- no of course not! Eteri had no control over the girl"s hairstyle
So was Carolina Kostner, for several years. A lot of his students remained with Mishin for years and never complained about mistreatment or neglect.Thanks for this because I read a machine translation of his interview and something did not come through on that he felt supported by Mishin and needed to be the only skater.
A few Americans trained with Mishin, including Alex Johnson, and Johnson was very high with his praise of Mishin's training methods- that Mishin was a coach who did not believe in an athlete falling all over the place to get a jump.
I'm loving Mishin more and more. Liza and Sofia are so lucky to have a coach like him. It's interesting that Alex Krashnyon said that skaters were treated poorly in Mishin's group- maybe this is just for the men or Alex has a bad attitude, however it seems clear that Mishin treats his female skaters very well. He made other comments on how Sofia is dealing with puberty and it seems as if he's trying to ease her through it.

Nobody called Jason Brown "a lady" or "skating like a lady" or said his skating is "not man-like".
Russian word for "man" can be turned into an adjective with several meanings suggesting gender, sex, and a sports category of "Men's event" vs. "Ladies event" in sports. It can mean "man", "male", "masculine", etc.
When someone says for example that Brown is not doing "man skating", it means he does not have the content expected today in a "Men's Singles event" and not that his content is "un-manly". When some-one says his content is "woman like", in russian languages it means his tech content is in the rank of the tech content in "Ladies Singles", not that he "skates like a woman".
The issue of Brown not having quads since 2016 is a common conversation. So are the comments that "girls can beat boys with quads" and "which girl would have placed on the podium in a men's event" in the whole FS worlds. This is not about "sexual orientation" or hints of such.
