Pammi Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 25 minutes ago, Luminous said: It’s interesting that there is a law in Russia against coaches and doctors who forced sportsmen to take doping. I haven’t heard that someone was convicted since the appearance of this law in 2016. The law is a good one, but the evidence from the investigation would need to be fully shared with WADA and with Russian police if there is evidence of a crime being committed (RUSADA seem reluctant and that's a kind way to put it!) and there would have to be a will within the sport in Russia firstly to be totally against such "supplements" being given (especially to children!) and secondly to support consequences.

There is no way Eteri will be punished in Russia. Everyone still think that Kamila is a victim of european and american conspiracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why people believe that Kamila is innocent too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sallycinnamon Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Alexander Gorshkov, the president of the Russian Figure Skating Federation has died yesterday. If I understood correctly, he suffered a major heart attack two days ago, and died in the hospital. He was the first Olympic champion in ice dance, in 1976 - with his wife Pakhomova who later died at only 39. Gorshkov served as the president of RusFed since 2010. https://fs-gossips.com/alexander-gorshkov-the-president-of-the-russian-figure-skating-federation-passed-away-at-the-age-of-77/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pammi Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Aliona is such a direct and honest young woman, I enjoy her skating a lot and hope her injuries heal well, and I'm impressed at her determined personality at such a young age - she shows great maturity. She is intelligent, lovely, and courageous (for the figure skating world where hardly anyone speaks up about anything). I would love to see her skating again one day, with or without her (beautiful) 3A. (asking her about a photo shoot was rather...unnerving though. Would they ask a man this??)

Pammi Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Evgenia posted on IG today too with the details of her own show "25" celebrating her 25th birthday on 15.11.24 - here is the translated post - it sounds like she is trying to be innovative, using AI and lots of other technologies too. Yuzu continues to inspire! "FRIENDS! I'm rushing to share the details of my ice show for my 25th birthday! Every element of the show will reflect my DNA digitally. I don't want to repeat the standard moves of other ice shows and we won't use stories made up by someone else, plots from fairy tales and literature. This evening we will live together with you different stages of my biography. I will show them to you with the help of light, sound, videography and, of course, spectacular numbers on ice. Many elements of the programme will be innovations in the world of ice shows. For example, it concerns the replacement of the compere by a virtual host. How exactly this idea will be implemented is still kept secret. The show will be unique due to its high-tech nature. We plan to make a modern project using artificial intelligence and other innovations. At the moment we have already ordered forty tonnes of equipment - this is only what will be under the roof of the CSKA Arena. We also plan to hang screens over the ice with a total area of over four hundred square metres. And in order to realise what we have planned, we need a lot of technical capacity. Artificial intelligence, kinetic systems, audio-reactive installations, sound equipment. Fortunately, I don't have to handle all that myself. Yes, I deal with a lot of organisational issues, negotiate with the participants of the show. But I don't consider myself its main producer, because I have experienced specialists working with me. They have taken on a large volume of tasks, including creative work. Before my show they organised international concerts of Armin Van Buuren, Scooter, fan zones for World Championships in football, hockey and athletics and other major sporting events in the country. So I trusted them completely at ease. Many of my figure skating friends will be taking to the ice. Lineup and ticket link at the link below and in the profile hat! Performances will be with live music by the artists!" 15 November. CSKA Arena. 19:00. More information about the show on the website: https://medvedeva.moscow/ Translated with DeepL.com (free version) Participants ALEXANDRA TRUSOVA Olympic medalist ALEXEY YAGUDIN Olympic champion VICTORIA SINITSYNA NIKITA KATSALAPOV Olympic Champions EVGENIA TARASOVA VLADIMIR MOROZOV Olympic medalists ALEXANDRA BOIKOVA DMITRY KOZLOVSKY Champions of Russia and Europe TATYANA TOTMYANINA MAXIM MARININ Olympic Champions ALEXANDRA STEPANOVA IVAN BUKIN Champions of Russia and Europe ELIZAVETA TUKTAMYSHEVA World Champion MICHAEL KOLYADA Olympic medalist ALEXANDER ENBERT Olympic medalist ARTEM FEDORCHENKO Figure skater and choreographer ELIZAVETA KHUDAIBERDIEVA EGOR BAZIN Champions and prize winners of Russian competitions DMITRY ALIEV European Champion OKSANA DOMNINA MAXIM SHABALIN Olympic medalists ANNA POGORILAYA-NEVSKAYA World Championship medalist ELENA RADIONOVA World Championship medalist If any PH satellite is intending to attend it would be good to get a report! Also I read on an FS forum that Evgenia is invited to skate at the gala of the Denis Ten Memorial Challenger series competition too - I think the gala is tomorrow 5th Oct. Interesting to see this as it is an international competition, which Russian skaters have not been able to attend. Of course she is not competing but even to be at an isu comp gala for a retired competitive skater has not happened since the ban that I am aware of?? Edit - clips of gala performance - apparently it is a song performed by Denis himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pammi Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 It seems nobody here is keeping up with Russia FS? I was hoping someone might advise if we could watch Evgenia’s show today - I’d love to see Elena Radionova, Mikhail Kolyada, Stepanova/Bukin, Boykova/Kovlovski skate. I hope for a recording if anyone gets to know of one. (Med is skating Memoirs of Geisha and Sailor Moon too, she says. And 8 other programmes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
