maestro 565 Posted July 12, 2021 #3 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I don't think anyone mentioned it in the 2020-21 discussion thread. On 11 June it was announced, that Aljona Savchenko will return to competition this season, skating for USA. Her partner will be TJ Nyman. https://www.spiegel.de/sport/wintersport/eiskunstlaufen-aljona-savchenko-macht-doch-noch-weiter-in-den-usa-a-dbfe4831-c0f7-4948-ab60-534305e4a2fb hckošice, NearPup, Ted and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maestro 565 Posted September 18, 2021 #4 Share Posted September 18, 2021 In the Autumn Classic in Canada, 16 year old Marilena Kitromilis won gold and became the first ever figure skater from Cyprus to win a medal of any colour at a challenger series level or higher. She scored 180.72 points. She was first after short program with 61.33 and had the second best free skate with 119.39. Here is the video of her free skate. All her scores are huge personal bests, improving her previous, which were set earlier this season. Interestingly enough, Kitromilis is only substitute entry for Cyprus at Nebelhorn Trophy, as another skater is assigned there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,179 Posted October 15, 2021 #6 Share Posted October 15, 2021 15-year old Kamila Valieva set a new WR for the free skate of 174 pts.
