From Russia with love [#29]: Spring 2018 and beyond

[her grace]

No Skoptcova/Aleshin?

And where are Zagorski/Guerreiro?

I like that Shpilevaya/Smirnov are on the list. Host spot, please!

And where are Zagorski/Guerreiro?

They had to wd

Unforturanlty even though we had a very productive week here in Novogorsk and were able to get some great feedback from the Judges/Specialists ...we are not going to be able to take part in the upcoming test skates! But we are staying positive and hope to slowly but surely get ready for our next events

You know I think in this picture https://www.instagram.com/p/BnYqV40jyoS/?hl=ru&taken-by=jonathan_guerreiro91Zagorski really looks like a younger version of the French actress Audrey Fleurot, not just the hair, but her whole expression.

A little bit of Zhenya. Maybe she'll post more clips

Some tweets from someone who I think is not actually there, but relaying reports (unclear to me)...according to them, Sergei was the only man who skated well and Mikhail's program was a mess

How I wish they would show it live online!

Tuk tweeted that she will try to stream the ladies FS on her Instagram live

@anais167 wrote on IG that Svetapoln will post a full video on Youtube later...if they recorded Zhenya, then I hope there will be other videos too.

Medvedeva's new choreography certainly looks a lot more interesting than anything I've seen on her before. Her posture looks better outside of crossovers as well. I'll be interested to see more. She hasn't spent a lot of time with Orser, but I'm liking the changes she's had time to make.

From Vaitsekhovskaya's blog:
Voronov - 4t-2t, 4Lo 2 ft
Kolyada - nothing new, pop on 4t, great 3lz, great axel
Samarin - ok, fall on 4t, he had a surgery on his knee in the off-season
Aliev - 2 quads, fell on both, good skating
Sotskova's SP is great, 'they have woken up the Sleeping beauty' , only 2 flip in the end
Tuktamysheva did 2 triple axels at the training session and one in the warm up, but on;y 2 axel in the program.
Zagitova - 3lz-3lo, axel, flip. Did everything. Awful program
Medvedeva - 3Lz, 2 axel, 3f-3t. They made a miracle with her - they have changed her axel and now it looks like a real jump. She skates better now, her knees are actually working
Tsurskaya - her big jumps are back, she fell on lutz/flip (Vaitsekhovskaya doesn't know)
Tarasova/Morozov - both had mistakes on 3t

I love the placement of jumps to the music....BAM! WANG! ALAKAZAM!!! Can’t wait to see this with Costume & full expression.

I'm officially in love with this new Zhenya

Can't wait for tomorrow!

Pass the No-Doze! The placing of the footwork in a slow female ballad (“Think of Me”) is terrible.

Liked Zhenya’s program more than I thought I would. Couldn’t tell if the lutz had a better edge but the flip toe looked great and axel better. Zag looks a little faster than last year but program with literally pre-juv music cuts. Absolutely awful

Really brave of Evgenia and Team Orser. It is a familiar style for Wilson, but a big change for Medvedeva, and she is gorgeous in it.
Molodetz!

Other than the freak fall on the lutz, I really liked that.
