  1. They couldn’t and they knew it. No people are allowed to help injured skaters on the ice apart from medical staff. Even Brian couldn’t just run out there to check him.
  2. I was watching it live too, and I remember being glued to the screen, but I just gave up when Yuzu broke down and started to bawl. Horrible memories.
  3. Powdered, I would say. But what can one do? Let’s hope for some drops of fresh water from Yuzu.
  4. They will compete at local national events. But those with overseas training bases are affected badly.
  5. I feel sorry for the junior skater planning to go senior next year. But on the whole, it’s a sound decision.
  6. Let us recall Catzuru
  7. It’s a sad anniversary of Denis Ten’s death. He would have been 27 by now...
  8. Some people are putting the blame onto Katya herself saying she’d been destroying herself...
  9. And I envy you because you don’t quite know how low some people might sink even now...
  10. The poor woman has been hospitalised with a shock. Rumours are that Katya has been depressed for quite some time and this wasn’t the first attempt to take her own life away. Unfortunately, as far as depressions and such mental diseases are concerned, the country is really backwater and such issues don’t often get addressed and dealt with. The stigma of having mental diseases is still here. so sad, she was so young.
  11. Yes, it was that!
  12. Here the situation was dire: Katya is said to have been an only child, her father had died several years before. The pressure to be successful can prove too much and the feeling you let your mum down must be terrible. She's very unlucky that she had her injury this year, and transitioning to life after a competitive sport can be challenging at any point, but when this coincides with a pandemic and an economic slump and an effective demise of any entertainment business, it may prove crushing. I wish we did have some sort of services helping young people transition to a new phase of their lives.
  13. Some more details are emerging. She was depressed after her competitive career was over. She did try to start a new career as a coach or at TV, but it didn’t work. So she kept saying she was a complete failure.
  14. She did. She committed a suicide.
  15. Harley Windsor Lina Fedorova - keep swiping Maybe, we as a society should do more for retired athletes to integrate and find their feet back. It’s horrible to feel at 20 you’re no longer needed by anyone.
  16. Basically, she found herself lost after she ended her competitive career, she did try to find some other calling, but failed to. She seems to have been drunk when she took her own life. She left a note saying “Love”. So devastating - just at 20...
  17. Her mother is hospitalized at a psychiatric ward now.
  18. Oh my God, Ekaterina Alexandrovskaya, who used to skate for Australia in pairs, fell out of a window in Moscow and passed away. She was 20. https://www.5-tv.ru/news/304355/figuristka-ekaterina-aleksandrovskaa-vypala-izokna/?fbclid=IwAR0WuIbbPCubqO6KxzD0C_ICjURenmj_SGTz14jwaFfTGe3NqH60yatRPEo It seems to have been a suicide, she was depressed for a long time, they say. how devastating, my heart goes out to her family and friends.
  19. What happens if your random local passerby can’t do that? and does that mean aliens will be taking part in that dreadful scramble for tickets?
  20. More Lotte clear file scans, folks. NICE!
  21. I thought we wanted to fly to the Moon next... in a takeover of the Solar System.
  22. This is just a nice set of pictures to come in my insta feed
  23. Er... dancers would feel neglected, I suppose.
