Could you please elaborate on this a little?

Suffice to say, Eteri's girls end up having fairly short careers due to overtraining. And if their bodies continue growing (like it tends to happen with teenagers), then their technique becomes useless and they end their careers extremely abruptly (see Zagitova).

 

And this was while they were only doing the triples... Who knows what will become of the current quad pioneers...

The technical element score of 44.

And they did it!

 

They scored 44.18 in Poland, meaning Lithuania will compete in figure skating after all.

Great news! I still hope for Amrbulevičius/Reed pair to sort out their citizenship as they been showing great form this season, but Ramansuakaitė/Kižala would make a history as first pair of Lithuanian-born skaters in Olympics.

According Japanese mainstream media asashi.com, Grand Prix Final scheduled in Japan has been cancelled due to the travel ban for foreigners over omicron variant concern. If ISU will relocate the GPF is not clear yet but I think the possibility is quite low given the insufficient preparation time.

Russian championships started today in St Petersburg. Scores are a bit, or a lot, inflated, as most of the times in nationals. The ranking order is what it matters the most.

 

Tomorrow, free dance and men's free skate will be contested, as well as women's short program.

Davis/Smolkin have the upper hand for third. They are ahead of Zagorski/Guerreiro, Morozov/Bagin and Khudaiberdieva/Bazin. These three teams are sperated by less than 1.5 points.

 

For those who don't know Davis is Tutberidze's daughter. When she was younger, she suffered from third degree hearing loss, which means severe hearing impairment. She has said that nowdays her hearing has been cured.    

 

Zagorski had some serious health issues recently and this is the first time, she and Guerreiro compete this season. Crowd in the stadium were unhappy with their score and reacted with boos.
