#TeamTrainwreck 16: We do hard, not crazy!

[DobrinFan]

Finals on Monday??.. Well I know it's only juniors but that's kinda odd specially when they are not attached to the senior events.

Well it's better than last year when the whole event was during the work week.

Which the Russian Cup Finals are.

Usually it's always during the work week except the ladies but at least the Fed's YouTube page post videos of the final.

Oh you 2 Who you wanna fool in here?
We know we are some damn crazy bunch of people, who have their notebooks, smartphones, tablets already set on our work desks!

Nah, I take breaks to run and watch my absolute favorites everyone else can wait

I'm with @SamuraiK here, for whatever reason, my interest in Russian junior nationals is zero. HOWEVER...

Samsonov and Dudakov

...what does interest me is that Eteri has brought the denim fantasy coat out of storage for the first time since 2014? 2015? Is she feeling nostalgic or what?

Panova is intruding on her territory so maybe she wanted the extra magic. I hope it's doubly there for Trusova today.

Ok, back to important stuff... anyone kind enough to share who made it out junior russian nationals?

Men:
1. Tutberidze kid, too young for junior worlds
2. Gumennik
3. Savosin
4. Erokhov
...
6. Murashov

Savosin pulling it off at the last minute, after the mess at Russian Nationals and an underwhelming JGP.

5th and 3rd at jgp sems not underwhelming for me

It's the @Jeschke fandom redux. They rise like a phoenix at crunch time. But, there may be a pile of burnt feathers later.

However, in this case I hope not because I like Savosin as well. BUT, I'd rather see Danielian than Erokhov at JR worlds.

Where are Akhanteva and Kolesov?

I approve you are asking here, the place of the best information level

I dont have a subscription (never have). So where are they?! This is really the best source for obscure skater info

How dare you skip over Danielian in 5th!

I don’t appreciate the 2 grandpas knocking him out of JW

 

[rfisher]

HA. Trusova's come back skate trounced Savosin, Erokhov and Murashov's into dust.

I watch major comps from my own work desktop when they interfere with work hours LOL but for Russian Cup final??? Blaaah.

 

[sharsk8s]

Just watched Trusova and don't know what was better, her actual skate or the ridiculous pcs score

That's a pretty good russian men team for JW. Well Erokhov kinda bores me and I too would have preferred Danielian but this is solid. I would love to joing the Samsonov bandwagon but Pitkeev's memories are still too fresh.

Is this the old grumpy lady in you speaking?

Well, I'm a happy one right now. I do want Kostornaia to slay as well. I wouldn't be unhappy if Tarankova managed to get the 3rd spot instead of Scherbakova. Just not in place of Trusova.

I haven't bought a suscription for FSU in like 3 years either.. The K&C threads are snarky yes but in a nasty/toxic way, not silly fun like in here. To be honest for best information during current comps Goldenskate is much better, there I said it.

 

[DobrinFan]

but Pitkeev's memories are still too fresh.

And he has he same coach as Pitkeev. I was never a fan of his but I will never forget his final skate

I think the Great Skate Debate threads have had more nasty/toxic posts this season than the Kiss'n Cry threads - Russian Skating thread - I've tried Goldenskate but I find there's too much being posted to try and keep up.

Man, those people are even more toxic and now you have to pay to read what is going on during the competitions. I got a free pass to the competition thread somehow for I guess being awesome (j/k) and I think I will just stick with FSU snark. As soon as I enter a competition thread there, I quickly exit!

 

[SamuraiK]

So I check the Jr. Russian stream and first thing I see is Kanysheva being miserable on the K&C , no more GPF miracle I guess.

That is a toxic/conspiracy filled pit that NO sane person should venture into

 

[Jeschke]

Kolyada entered for event in EST end of february
Monitoring?

Yes, that's true. Goldenskate is much polite and a nicer ambient but is waay to crowded. I post or ask for something and when I check the reply there's already 5-6 pages of other stuff.
