they lowkey turned trusova into the new surya bonaly. doomed to forever have discourse about their technical greatness to claim goat status while ignoring the lack of their second mark that cost them titles.
im sorry but acting like spencer howe is on the same level of influence as alysa liu is wild
the US womens figure skating team was subject to endless threats and misogyny from magabots during the games bc of how outspoken they were against the administration what the actual eff are u talking about
Replying to @huntersspirals
the american propaganda machine is rampant and has ramped up more with the current administration. figure skaters were definitely a part of that during the olympics (against their will)
American figure skaters do not have their training paid for by their government. dead ukranians are paying for russians training. its really ignorant to put these two at the same level
dare i say similar cases are the reason for 48% of coaching changes
Elena Kostyleva has been asked to leave Plushenko’s Academy.
Following a collective complaint from 11 parents about the actions of her mother to the Russian figure skating federation, she’s effectively no longer a student of the ‘Angels of Plushenko’ skating club.
There have been repeated complaints about Irina allegedly using obscene language, getting into conflicts with other parents and harassing the students.
According to the allegations, academy security has also repeatedly escorted her out of other training sessions following confrontations.
The athletes allegedly targeted by her harassment include Kalugina, Bazilyuk, Sarnovskaya, and, most recently, Lyubov Rubtsova. Irina reportedly calls these girls “scum” and “bitches,” claiming they prevent Lena from training properly.
According to sources, there was only one condition for the family to remain at the Academy: Irina would not be allowed to attend training sessions.
Over the summer, AoP asked the Russian Figure Skating Federation to find Lena another school. Apparently the Federation was unable to find suitable alternatives for them.
so this is how a competition works

A healthy petrosian( not the injured one with the severe back injury we saw at milano) with her two quads and 3a wouldve beaten Liu
Hell had sakamoto and ami not fumbled their routines Liu would have not won the gold medal
And that is just petrosian
Liu isnt a 1 of 1 athlete
