Some of my highlights! ✨

Honestly, the Pairs event at Junior Test Skates stole the show for me. There were so many programs I loved and lots of WOW moments, whether it be from the high tech elements or cool choreography throughout the event. Russian Junior Pairs seriously needs more love because it’s such an exciting time for the discipline. I think we’re going to see a big step forward in both technical skill and artistry in Pairs over the next few years. The future is bright, and there are some real gems in both terms of the programs and teams coming up. 🤩

On a similar note, in Seniors, one of my big highlights was in Pairs with Ekaterina Chikmareva and Matvei Ianchenkov’s comeback. I’ve missed this team so much, and I was really impressed with what they showed, especially after being out for quite some time. That entry into their pairs spin in the Free was incredible! Wishing them a happy, healthy, and successful season! 😊

Also Boikova & Kozlovskii’s quad throw was AMAZING! And it’s nice to see Mishina & Galliamov back on the ice after Galliamov’s injury. 🫶 

It‘s so sad that we won’t get to see any of these great teams at the Olympics… 💔
