Hair-favorite?
Ponytail or bun. If you leave the house with her hair in an hour anyway I tidy them up.

Figure skater Sotnikova leaves last season long program- coach

MOSCOW, July 1 - R-Sport, Maria Vorobyov. Olympic figure skating champion Adelina Sotnikova , who missed the season-2014/15 due to a leg injury, leave long program last season and set a new short, the agency "F-Sport" Coach athlete Elena Buyanova .

Sotnikova last season came just one start - stage of the Cup of Russia in Sochi, but missed all subsequent events of a foot injury received in training. At the moment the athlete is at training camp in Italy.

"Free program remain the same - the song" Je suis malade ". It is almost never seen, and the program was very successful. We decided not to change it, just a little bit improved due to the fact that Adeline significantly" increased in the skating - Buyanova said by telephone. - A short (choreographer) Peter Chernyshev set a new ".

"The experience that Adeline acquired during participation in a dance project, we decided to use in a production. Thank you Pete, who came up with this idea, I believe that the program was very successful!" - Added the coach.

Buyanova also emphasized that the collection is aimed at "improving the general physical readiness of athletes, its functional endurance." "Here we have provided all the conditions, also very beautiful nature around, so that work with pleasure. In addition to the GPP, we are actively" racking "of the program, so that everything goes according to plan," - concluded the coach.

Elena Buyanova: "Sotnikova main start of the season - the championship of Russia"

The coach of Olympic champion Adelina Sotnikova Elena Buyanova told about the plans of the athletes for the season.

"The collection we now have a slightly different focus, but as jumps, they all recovered. A week later, Adeline flies to China for demonstrations, so we quietly begin to reduce all together. But to boost training, we in any case will not.

Our main start of the season - the championship of Russia on keeping his sight. Our task - to start this season, and will continue to move steadily. We have planned a series of Challenger tournaments and domestic stages, in preparation will be guided and determined "

So does she have no plans to do the GP? It's tough b/c it's not a literal translation but is that what they mean by the start of her season will be Russian nationals...?
 
I just take it to mean that all her planned competition are all Russian starts like she said in a previous interview with Russian Nationals being the priority. Elena said they will try not to miss any domestic competitions. Kogan said Rostelecom is hers if she wants it and if she has open availability.

So this is the planned schedule I got from her previous interview.

Open test skates Sept. 12th
Senior B:
Mordovian Ornament (Saransk) Oct. 15th
GP:
Rostelecom (Moscow) Nov. 20th
Domestic:
Russian Cup V (Moscow) Dec 2nd
Russian Nationals Dec 23rd

She may not do everything listed above but she has to do either a senior B or Rostelecom since she does not have the minimum for Euro/Worlds. She doesn't have the luxury to do only Nationals.

:duh:

On the bright side, someone tweeted in Japanese that she looked a lot matured, and improved in artistry/expressions. Shame re jumps. But she has lots more shows in China. She can put things together during the rest of the shows. Fingers crossed.

I hope there will be videos somewhere. I think this may be her new short program and I desperately want to see it #Impatient :D
 
I'll look for videos on Chinese sites. I think we'll have good chances to find the vids during the main land shows. Maybe we have less chances during the Taipei shows, though. #excited
 
That is a great program. Finally. :coffee:

And the posture has improved with the extra frill. She can perform ten times better than any of the ladies, who knew. Don't hate - Shakira hip-gyrate. :D

And yet she still has that damn Je Suis Malade.
 
DobrinFan, you beat me. Thanks!
I love the new SP. I've known for years that she can dance explosively since she won the dance battle in THE ICE a few years ago! :D

Adelina was invited to Japan Open. Her comeback must be serious.

ETA:
Her long program was originally given to her for last season. It suited her at the time. Things changed a bit since then. Still I love to see her playing a character in the world of that program. It looks she loves performing a lot. I expect her to explore on that side in the long program this season.

Olympic champion in figure skating Sotnikova perform at the tournament in Japan
Sport
July 10 20:59 date: July 10, 9:36 p.m. UTC + 3 Rossiyanka in June began preparations for the new season
TOKYO, July 10. / TASS /. Olympic champion Sochi Games Figure Skating Russian woman Adelina Sotnikova perform at the tournament in Tokyo, scheduled for October. It is reported by Japanese broadcaster TV Tokyo.

According to the publication, participation in the tournament, in addition Sotnikova, will take a few more well-known skaters: American Gracie Gold and Ashley Wagner, Japanese Mao Asada and Satoko Miyahara and Spaniard Javier Fernandez.

Sotnikova in June began preparations for the new season. As reported previously TASS athlete herself, leg injury, due to which she had to miss most of the season-2014/15, it did not bother.

As noted by the coach of the athlete Elena Buyanova, the first performance of Sochi Olympic champion in figure skating Adelina Sotnikova in Japan after the break will be a nice start of the new season.

"The decision on the participation of Adeline tournament in Japan has been made today, and she reacted very seriously to the task at hand, - said Buyanova. - The competition will be for it is not just the first of the season, and the first after a break due to injury. While we can not expect from her some sverhelementov, and me as a coach, it is absolutely not afraid. We need to start, it is necessary to create a reserve, and to strive for more. I'm sure - the October launch will be for Adeline pleasant start, because to return after the break, very hard, and it must make difficult step. "

Buyanova confident that the support of the Japanese fans, psychologically Sotnikova will benefit. "I admire the Japanese fans - she said. - Adeline often happens in this country and knows how to apply it to all skaters. This competition will help her smoothly enter into the season. Now it is a lot of work. At the training camp in Italy, where we returned recently, it has been a real driving force for the entire group. I admire how it works, how to relate to their work. I sincerely wish her to a burning spirit in it constantly, despite the burden of responsibility. "

Her jumps look shaky so she has some work to do. It's early yet, and good that she has these exhibitions and other competitions to get her feet under her since she's not competed in a while.
 
I love her new Samba SP. If she can get (keep) the jumps down in competition and maybe speed up her spins, she is going to be fabulous. Her style is phenomenal. DWTS was the best thing in the world for her. I will be so happy to see her come back strong after all the trash talk she's gotten. What a fighter.

I really liked the glimpse of Ashley's new Samba program but I'll be very surprised if she can match, let alone top, this.

Well google tried :slinkaway

Olympic champion figure skater Adelina Sotnikova - that her people about how she dealt with the soul of the Internet, and whether it is possible to combine love and sports. And most importantly - how.

If you want to achieve something, you need to learn to step over failures. Wake up, push them aside and move on. Because it will be a victory for overcoming. Because otherwise idleness of the hands. So I had before the Olympic Games: the failure of the failure, I thought that all, it's time to give up on your dreams, throwing sports, because nothing happened. Every time I gave myself one last chance, I had to overcome itself and get into the team. By doing this, I realized that you can never stop. My failure in the past that can not return or change. I will continue to fight and prove to myself that I can.

I love their work, figure skating. I go out on the ice, enjoy, forget about all the problems, I would like to skate and want to work - there's probably a hundred in one! Moreover, in addition to the joy of skating it provides an opportunity to earn. For me it's very important because I have a man for whom I do it. I want and, more importantly, can help the sister who had some health problems, but it needs to succeed. In the most difficult times, I asked myself, "What would make my sister, if I give up the sport?" The funds will not be such. And I dream that in her life everything was fine, that treatment is successful. These thoughts are always helping me.

When you want to win, you climb out of the skin to make the impossible possible. When I was younger, I am looking at Irina Slutskaya, Shizuka Arakawa. I watched and admired. I wanted to act in the same way as they are, at the international level, winning medals. Choosing for yourself this way, and now I'm going for it. Yes, it is difficult, but I was happy with everything in life. I am a strong man, used to set goals and achieve them. Of course, sometimes you want to be soft and sweet, but do not always succeed. Today, coaches, athletes, and see what can be achieved. Grows a lot of talented girls, all eager to win, learn new elements, trying to break through, to get to the world level. Speaking in Russia, now face even greater stress than in overseas competitions. Simply win the championship of Europe than to get into the team. Of course, such competition would only spur to good box office. And then it all depends on the character. Someone looking at the girls and clamped, thinking, "What if I just go out and fall?" Someone, on the contrary, sees that all do everything, and says to himself: "Now go out now to skate for me going! "Therefore, a person chooses what he will do - and afraid to stand up for the rim, or to go out and perform. I like to take risks. For example, I will always try to go for a complex element: do it, do not do that, but I still go. I do not look at others, I go out and do my job, because I have only one chance to get over yourself, calm down, go out and skate as much as I can. And there already will all depend on the judges.

Undoubtedly, the victory is very important, but it is only a consequence. In preparation for the performance, I never think about it, my head is occupied only with thoughts of good theaters. Honestly, even his promise to win the Olympic Games, given in childhood to our president, I remembered only in Sochi before any program. Somewhere I read about it or heard and wondered e-my, why did I do that? And then just left it on the fourth, the fifth, the hundredth plan, went out and did my best. At the moment I have nothing can make to abandon the sport.

I missed a year due to injury, so, of course, will be much harder to enter the competitive process, but I will work on it to get it to all, God forbid, it was well into the next season. I also have added responsibility, because now I'm out on the ice in a different role - as the Olympic champion. Of course, my life has changed dramatically after the Olympics, a lot was invited to various events, such in my life I never had. A lot of attention has been - and from the media and from the fans, the fans. At first I even lost, I was somehow scared. I'm very vulnerable people, all take to heart. Before reading the comments on the Internet, I was upset: a lot of nasty things written. Watched, then I think about it all the time, even my mother would say, "Mom, can, indeed, why I do it? Why, if people believe me so bad? "And then I realized: that's what I people? People are just stupid to sit at the computer and write what they want. And they themselves do not do anything. They do not seek, do not know what the athletes are going through, how they work, they do not realize how hard this all goes. And why did I imagine I will hammer his head with some people when I have my own family, there are native people, friends who believe in me? That's the most important thing. And I stopped to read everything. Now sometimes I look through when social networking is something written. I'll read it, laugh at the negative and read the following comment. The parents are very supportive of me. But at the same time, they seem to understand that I'm an adult, and give some freedom to myself, I realized that I need in my life. They quietly released somewhere, because they know that there is a head on his shoulders. Basically they are saying, "We'll be able to what, help. You can always appeal to us to tell, to share ... " In fact, probably the only family I can be weak. And even better with a friend. No one else will not show. With me is easy to find communication, but what is in my heart, I will reveal only the closest. With them, I can talk about everything, because I know that it will remain in our minds and hearts, but not outside. Recently, I really changed. I try to be independent and to understand life.

Once I had a dream to enter the GITIS. But then I realized that if I wanted to go to the Olympics, GITIS to sacrifice. And I sacrificed. Let's see what will emerge, but the second I want to finish the Institute for sure. In general, I do not like to plan life. Let everything goes as it goes. I once had planned and doplanirovalas. Then I decided for myself that this should never need, so put some goals, tasks, but not to plan. I live for today. The future does not look much, but in the past ... whichever the past. If it is good, why not see and did not remember those moments. I also wanted to be a designer. It was very interesting to come up with some things, drawings, combine the colors. Now this wish turned into my own line of clothes for figure skating. I want to do it is not like everyone else - something new, exclusive, it would be interesting to look on the ice. After the training time is so small that it almost no matter what is missing. Therefore, every hobby a little bit: I sew, knit and learned - my mother taught. Even contacted some scarf itself. Of course, there are thoughts that oyyy we tired all tired, but still put on skates and on the ice. And you do not remember, you're tired, you've got some problems. You are already out, and you need to exercise.

Moreover, even in childhood, we never complained, had to feel it in all colors, and it was fine. Between workouts, rather than relax, we ran and played salochki - that is, all the same games that also have children with non-athletes. And we have a triple that was interesting because a lot of people. For me, childhood is very bright, it has always been fun. At the same fees last night we called "royal." There were, paste paint the children. We do not sleep, waiting until all will fall. These great moments! In summer I went with my grandparents in the countryside, or to his dacha. There the boys walked, climbed trees, rode bikes, went into the forest. Come up with a mini-performances, evening concerts were given. Normal children's recreation. And then, later, in the years 12-13, the first time the sea has gone. Now the beach is probably the best holiday for me. The sea heals our bones, wounds, and so now, if you can, of course, I will choose the sea - to receive medical treatment, rest, and with new forces will work. Also, as any normal girl, I dream to have a good family, to have children, of course.

But while I can not say that I can quickly combine sport and love. There may be two options. If there is love, and it helps, it can be combined. And if she only gets if I dressed in love, not in sports, then I will leave love in the background and go to the sport. And maybe, will come a time when I really fall in love with someone and I want to give the family. I remember in school, read "first love" by Turgenev. This story really hooked me was my favorite piece. I do not know how my life goes. At the moment I have the most important sport, but already there to see what would happen next. I can not say I do not know what will happen in my life. I do not want to look ahead and I do not want to anticipate. I have plans, I know what I want, and I tell it will not. Why would tell? Each person has their own, each has its own principles. Show it to tell ... I do not think it's right.

She meant good skating

"that's what I people? People are just stupid to sit at the computer and write what they want. And they themselves do not do anything.

Why would I care about the people? People just sit stupidly at the computer writing whatever they want. Not doing anything themselves. They do not achieve, do not know what athletes feel, how they work, what amount of efforts it takes. And why would I bother myself with those people?! :agree:

Great column! Adeline has a lot to say and comes off as a very thoughtful, strong, mature young woman. I still can't get over the idea of a teenage skater taking on the financial responsibility of a family member's medical treatment. Although I could wish she had never read the garbage that was thrown at her on the Internet, it's impressive that she's managed to come to terms with it. She seems unstoppable. But as she knows, her biggest rivals are right there in Russia.

ETA: And Mao, of course!
