Mastyaeva

They opened an official Disney shop in Moscow last year. I can go there and check if they have really big Poohs. If they have, you won't need to care about bringing it to Moscow.

Today after Russian team test skates finished TAT took microphone, remembered about Denis' death and ask everybody to stand up and have a minute of silence.

Yes, yes, me too! This is my absolute favorite among waltzes after Hisaishi's one. And the Waltz goes on is so rarely used for figure skating! I only remember Tessa and Scott using it. Moreover, Polina's skating has a potential for a decent interpretation of this music. Can't wait)

I only heard she worked for the CSKA skaters: Tsurskaya, Gubanova, Danielyan.

Sorry if it was already posted Anastasia Gubanova SP - Take five (Paul Desmond?) Choreographed by Peter Tchernyshev FP - Dreams of love (I guess, Liebesträume by Liszt). Choreographed by Tatyana Tarasova and Nikita Mikhailov http://ltk-cska.ru/news/1384-programmyi-sezona.html

Choreographed by Tarasova and her assistant Nikita Mikhailov I'm totally in love with her music choices and look forward to see the programs!

In fact, Russian forums are going crazy right now, because Stéphane mentioned Latin and Hispanic for free, and someone heard something like Carmen in that piece of music that plays during 4salchow. I can not distinguish music very well, so I can not say anything.

That word. I'm not superstitious about using it, I just suddenly remembered: last year we were yelling and laughing so much while using it during the off-season and then the season started and it wasn't a funny word anymore. Now I get goosebumps every time I see or hear it. I think, I simply still have trauma since last season. I'm in a condition of a total calmness about the announcement of the programs already. Yuzu can skate whatever he wants I'm happy just knowing the data of his nearest competition.

Panenkova gave an interview! https://www.sport-express.ru/figure-skating/reviews/zagitova-horoshiy-chelovek-intervyu-eks-uchenicy-tutberidze-1449618/ SP: "Skyfall" by Adele (suggested by her coach) FP: "You’re not from here" by Lara Fabian (she chose it herself)

You are welcome . I hope Julia will have time and opportunity to comment this year too (I've heard no info about her plans). She really is a big fan of Yuzu and never forgets to give analysis of technical skills and performances of all the skaters.

If Brian has that event in Muskoka on Saturday and then flies to Moscow I don't envy his schedule. But from psychological point of view, sure, it would be better for Zhenya to have him when Eteri is around. Who knows, the atmosphere can be not so friendly in general (I hope not, but it can happen).

Zhenya is joining Russian team in the training camp in Novogorsk (from 5 September), before she takes part in the test skates of the Russian team (9 September). This is an official info from the Russian FS Federation. I think, this is a good news, but I really wonder who will come with her to Russia. http://tass.ru/sport/5471072

So, Kolyada gave an interview and said he wants to keep his programs in secret till performing (his first competition will be Ondrej Nepala) He also mentioned his programs for this season are different from previous ones, especially his new free program. If it means no tango, I'll be so happy. If he has chosen Chopin, we need Yatagarasu to use her magic more often. Full interview in Russian here: http://tass.ru/sport/5471570 He is going to participate in the test skates of the Russian team (9 September) and taking into account the day of the free skate will be open for public, we will have news quite soon.

I've always liked Gaby's Carmen) So French and powerful. Happy to see it again) Keegan is that rare person who can skate this type of program and look natural. And he's so joyful! Nam. His program begins and I'm like: Hmm. Cool! But something is wrong. Wait, where are Maia and Alex?

I've just imagined it and, seriously, I'm ready.

Nice company. I've heard Kolyada's tango from two seasons ago in the subway today and remembered he didn't announce this season's one (because I have almost no hope he won't choose tango again).

Guys, did I miss the announcement/forgot about it or Kolyada really didn't announce his music too?

Because it's Yuzu

В прошлом году в какой-то момент аннонсировали день и время начала продаж первой волны билетов. Так что не совсем без предупреждения было. Будем надеяться, и в этот раз так будет. Иначе, действительно, тяжеловато себя собрать.

Sorry, guys, I just got the Internet. Pinch me, I'm dreaming. I'm definitely dreaming. The local Disney store is doomed. I'm coming.

No worries, guys, things always happen when I'm out with no Internet and I'm going out in half an hour.

I have a bunch of winter jackets, so I will borrow you one if necessary:-) Even a fur coat. May Yuzu just visit us again, please

He is the main memelord of Russian FS. Never disappointing. Once I saw a collection of funny quotations from his interviews. Pure gems. Not mentioning his photos.
