“I wonder what Medvedeva feels returning to Sambo. Part of the reason she left was Alina and the upcoming of Anna, Aliona, and Sasha. Now there are kids like Valieva and Akatieva too. It’s like a constant barrage of new kids she doesn’t have the tech score to beat. Plus, the fact that she’s injured.”

Hope that helps! If you ever have questions, feel free to ask! :)

“Kristi Yamaguchi is a benchmark of technical consistency of the 6.0 era, while Yuna is the benchmark of consistency in IJS.”

“I think for the new programs, other than trying different genres, Yuzu will up the tech. I can’t wait to see what he has in store!”

“I disliked the Russian singles’ skating style SO MUCH, but I can't deny it always brings me great entertainment to watch the clusterfuck of awful choices and overdramatic programs. It's so bad, it's good. Russian pairs are the opposite- I love them so much, more than the Chinese pairs to be honest.”

“In the future I suspect that most ladies champions will only have one to two maximum good seasons. There are just too many new girls rising up every year. To stay on top, someone would need to keep up technically, and still keep their PCS, and that isn’t easy when you start growing more.”

“I just cannot take some of the ‘rescorers’ on youtube and reddit when they place someone who had multiple errors and lower content difficulty WAY ahead of someone who was clean and had harder difficulty. Sorry, but PCS still has a performance and interpretation portion to it, something a lot of these so-called ‘experts’ seem to have forgotten….”
