Hmmm...not sure how that's going to help his jump consistency which is a pity because his skating is beautiful otherwise.

I guess nobody like the feeling of being treated as an unfavorite child. At least Rukavitsin treats his athletes warmly.
No doubt Semenenko is the fair-haired boy at this time as he clearly has the best results of all the Mishin skaters. Lutfullin is my personal fav, but he has the same issues as Matvie. I just don't think he's going to get the results he wants by moving to Rukavitsin.
I, too, prefer Lutfullin's jumping technique and skating style among all Mishin's boys. But unfortunately, more often than not, it's technical contents and consistency but not quality and skating skills are rewarded in the form of GOE and CoP.No doubt Semenenko is the fair-haired boy at this time as he clearly has the best results of all the Mishin skaters.

So is Dikidzhi. Artemeva/Briukhanov had several successful 4twists in competition last season.
In poor taste and rather dreary as was the entire event, with few exceptions notably, Aliev Dmitry, Kag/Nek, Tuktik, Sinitsyna, Kolyada and wife.....but oh so dreary. Also, does Stepanova plan to starve herself to oblivion? Sigh.
Watched tthe show and it was iindeed trashy. Cannot wait to see what Kaganovskaya and Nekrassov will do this coming season. As for Stepanova, typical expectation of Russian female skaters . Forget about a healthy look especially if you are in Zhulin's group. No wonder Shanaeva left the the group after her split from Drozd.
I so liked her when she skated with Narhizny?? She had a spark, but with Zhulin, its a one size fits all sort of vibe. So what can they do? They either stay and become another cut out or they leave to find someone who brings out the best in THEM.
