[alchemy void]

and her coach Tzareva is not a happy camper..

To be fair, when has Tsareva ever been a happy camper?

To be fair, when has Tsareva ever been a happy camper?

On rare occasions she is.....

But not lately.. Pogo's situation is uncertain, and instead she was given to work with a "problem child"..

[Jeschke]

There are already unofficial whispers questioning Panenkova's participation in GP events

Dare her withdrawing!
I need Tsareva on GP circuit again!

Come on, how easy you forget the good old times...

No Pogo yet but there is Gubanova. Hopefully Gubanova competes here instead of Cup IV.

No Pogo yet .

Loboda-Shibnev. I was wondering where Shibnev disappeared.

 

[DobrinFan]

Well they are still taking applications, so no worries yet

 

[Jeschke]

Loboda-Shibnev. I was wondering where Shibnev disappeared.

Good (eye-candy) news!

 

[Lara]

That’s second bad competition for Panenkova. I wonder if she disappears the way Feditchkina did.

Has Fedichkina completely quit skating?

 

[hanca]

She was entered at some B competition recently but withdrew.

 

[DobrinFan]

Pogo will not compete in Kazan and will not be at Nationals as she has changed coaches.

[Jeschke]

How should Nugumanova make it to nationals with that field?

 

[Ka3sha]

How should Nugumanova make it to nationals with that field?

She was second at her previous Russian Cup event, her chances are not that bad.
I am more worried about Gubanova, who was third at RC#1

 

[Jeschke]

Wasn't Shibnev supposed to skate here?

 

[Ka3sha]

Wasn't Shibnev supposed to skate here?

No, they are in Moscow entries for Russian Cup #5

 

[Jeschke]

No, they are in Moscow entries for Russian Cup #5

One RC alone might not be enough to make it to nationals, not even in dance, or?

 

[morqet]

Kovtun's return was pretty good!
4sal< with a step out & hand down that I think was counted as a fall
4T-2T
3a
Really fun step sequence, although he ran out of steam towards the end,

The program really suits him.

 

[DobrinFan]

Welcome back Max

He was so nervous but not bad! Like the program as well!

 

[Jeschke]

Kovtun

[Jeschke]

I agree with @morqet and @DobrinFan
I also like his #splatordie attitutde going all in and not playing safe.

I am known as a sucker for comebacks, and I have a soft spot since his 'Iron Sky' FS, so go Max, all the way!

I would be thrilled to see him as Russia No 3 after Nationals.

 

[Jeschke]

RC stream now even has a score tracker, with planned elements and actual done elements!
Check that challenger events!

 

[Jeschke]

Gerboldt has taken some Tsareva-knc-lessons, I approve

 

[Jeschke]

Kovtun
awesome outfit, black/gold; he looks damn fine and nervous as hell

4t1t
4s

3a stepout

2lz stepout
doublefist to end

I totally disliked the first minute, as it was just totally non-choreo, focused on the jumps. regarding his long break and the 3 quads to start it was clever though.
Overall this was pretty to come back.
I like the SP way better, as the entire FS seems still somehow not ready. Steps have nice choreo-moments though!

 

[Jeschke]

Shulepov coming in 3rd!
@DobrinFan tell me, that is enough for nationals
