Seriously though thank you everyone so much for your get well wishes and positive energy if you don’t know about a week ago I had a bad crash on my warm up for the free program and I thought I was fine but I was in a lot of pain right away just shook it off and skated. But when I got home I got checked out and turns out I cracked two ribs have a very badly bruise knee and a concussion so with that said I have not let it break me or bring me down.
I’ve gone through hell and back and this has only made me realize how strong I am staying positive, being happy and so thankful.
2019-2020 is last season for Medvedeva respresent ryssia
Next season gonna be insane for russians. Here 5 strongest ladies and 3 quotas. And Jenya is #6 if she'll be lucky enough. She have a lot of ambitions and she'll 100% change country for being able go to World's.
Her story is really impressive. They were World Champions 5 times, but never got beyond bronze at the Olympics, so finally the guy just retired when they were 30+. But she didn't, found a new partner, went to her FIFTH Olympics and won it from 4th place after Short. Strongest mind for sure.
probably the first picture that i really do not like her in. just no.
Eli Hall
so true.
Camden Cruz
She doesn't. Literally the only times i remember her is when somebody posts her pics or mentions her. Otherwise i wouldn't even remember she exists at all.
Hudson Jackson
>being American = white Mariah Bell did nothing wrong. Fucking dumbass gook.
>they are friendly with each other That cope. They probably despise each other even more after words.
Brandon Carter
>I hate the drama in figure skating >I'm not in any way trying to cause drama coupla fuckin queers. drama is half the reason to follow this sport.
Jack Evans
this, Alina is sweet, not stupid. she knows everything churka says/does is deceitful. furthermore, Alina is a global icon, churka flashes her leaky latex snatch to rich koreans for shekels.
Ayden Howard
...
Cooper Richardson
True. Alina is in her prime in terms of career and popularity. She pretty much kicked babasyan out of the japanese market. Alina=Queen. Babasyan=pathetic, desperate loser.
Connor Campbell
Too bad her attempt to coach didn't work out. Knerims were shit, but wish she had more success there. I'm excited for her though.
Austin Allen
Shutup monkey. Go start a war in your favela
Jaxon Richardson
She's literally a female version of Anakin. >doesnt' get her olympic gold medal master jedi title >gets angry >goes to Orser >is it possible to learn a new program to save my dying career? >not from Tutberidze >sides with him >loses at worlds because Alina has the highground >you ment to be the chosen one! >Orser takes back the wretched corpse of Babasyan and puts it in a whorish pink suit with career support system working on shows for koreans
It will be interesting if they are all 100% but that's highly unlikely. Zagi is a lock if she's at her max. Trusova should also be in. 3rd spot is between Alyona and Shcherba but I have a feeling at least one of them will mess up. This summer is huge for them. It would be a shame not having skater like Kosto on a single big competition. Rest of the pack is not that close, except maybe Tuktik. It's such a shame we will see them all together only once or twice. Russian nationals was a killer and that was with Zagi choking and without Tuktik. Next year even Kameshek will compete in senior nationals.

True Facts: The first English instructional book on figure skating from the 1700s was written by a guy sentenced to death for sodomizing a 13 year old boy. But he was given a pardon and allowed to leave the country.
Tursyn is cute, but not the cutest. Also based for beating the quadbots to the first senior quad jump in a competition.
Eli Morgan
any chance of seeing Marin Honda again?
Jack Hill
Marin Honda desu
Adam Sanchez
sure, but this time she will probably get only one grand prix event. At least she should based on her past results, but who know, maybe Jap fed will value her popularity more than actual results. I still have some hope that she will finally deliver in seniors, not much tho.
Maybe I will go to junior grand prix season, hopefully someone interesting will skate (Alysa PLEASE).
Oliver Morgan
>845 the cheapest one that's like 600 freedom dollars? wew
Parker Allen
Are you the leaf who attended this season's Canada GP? If so, based.
Ryder Barnes
they know rich people watch fs so they decide only rich people should be able to. then you see empty seats
Caleb Lopez
0% she'll pick Poland.
Matthew Price
>then you see empty seats 5 people paying 1000 $ is the same as 10 people paying 500$. But the thing is that rich people will also buy a lot of expensive shit and the advertisers that put their ads all over the arena would rather show their ads to wealthy people than poorfags. At least this is how i see it.
Benjamin Carter
well fuck it then, no way i'm going to watch some eteri bot. Maybe at least Stasya or Sima will go to Warsaw Cup one more time. Or Sotskova, that would be a dream.
all cucknadians are paypigs, and not just for food apparently.
James Green
check out Kurakova
Dominic Diaz
Middle age nips will pay for it gladly, if it's an opportunity to stalk and harass their barely legal husbando.
Juan Parker
it's not that simple, in theory you'll prefer to have a wider range of people talking about your brand since all the talk will eventually reach your target audience
Nathaniel Reyes
>implying oligarchs mingle with plebs
Ryder Price
Doubt it. Rich people don't want to buy stuff that poor subhumans love and talk about. Not to mention that wealthy people are always smarter than average people so they don't watch TV or listen to the radio therefore it's more difficult to reach them.
Lucas Richardson
Wouldn't that take a whole months pay from Hartz IV for you? Obviously
I completely forgot about her lol. I guess they plan join "junior/senior" year with jgp, some senior challenger to get minimum and most likely europeans and worlds.
Some music choices for next season, stolen from some board Stanislava Konstantinova SP: Leonid Levashkevich - February FS: Moulin Rouge Evgenia Medvedeva SP: Muse - Exogenesis p.3 FS: Memories of a Geisha Yuhana Yokoi will keep Phantom of the Opera FS Marin Honda FS: La La Land
destroyed by sasha's increasingly unstable quads while she has begun to lay down 4-3s every day in practice? or has kostornaia found the way to 90+ tes and we haven't found out yet? and all this while she was endorsed by one of the biggest sponsors in the sport of figure skating guaranteeing her just pcs scores?
Honestly, Romania probably has the right of it. Of the three, I feel like Scherbakova has the most potential.
Jonathan Green
Hm, who should I support? Option 1 is rich girl from Moscow that has absolutely perfect family, life, has trained with top coaches since she was a kid and never had to work for something. Probably isn't even Orthodox and Russian. Wears flashy clothes to show how rich and awesome she is. Chokes often.
Option 2 is immensely talented but mentally fragile Tatar girl that loves being center of attention and can't stop using social media. She can't wait to leave Russia for degenerate Japan. Probably only skates to earn more money. Chokes sometimes.
Option 3 is a humble, slightly autistic, patriotic girl from poor Russian province that had to fight through shitty coaching to get where she is now, using only her tough mind, resilience and faith. Always sings anthem loudly and proudly, isn't afraid to wear the christian cross on her chest. Pushes limits and boundaries of human performance. She doesn't care about appearance, always wears Russia branded sport clothes. Chokes never.
There are a few other moments I could point out on that show... I wish they'd tone it down a bit... I'm worried it's going to get shut down(Though Averbukh is tight with Putin). It's the best thing going in figure skating now. I hope it lasts for generations.
Connor Williams
For me, it's Russian figure skater Evgenia "Zhenya" Medvedeva.
Because English is the official language of Earth and the only language of humans. We are ashamed of being disgusting russian subhumans and our subhuman "'language"'?
what is the perfect mix of euro-asian mixture, 80-20, 70-30, 50-50? i seem to gravitate to either marble skinned "just a sprinkle of asian" lo.....girls or oliveskinned "ancient greek statue look alike" roasties. tursyn will be 23, no chance
Carter Jones
Age doesn't matter really for her, she's small. Perfect amount is when you see she's not pure but can't really call her asian, like WallE, Zagi or how my kids with Liza will look like.
Unlike Zagitova and Babasyan, she can actually improve her skills, hence quad and 3A. Moreover, she has the best coach team and strongest teammates. And no pressure at home, no one is going to topple her as a number one Kazakh skater
Jeremiah Walker
If she stays relevant in pre-olympic year, Rusfed will force Eteri to get rid of her just like before Sochi.
Ayden Parker
this, eteri has obligations
Nicholas Bailey
Shit, I wasn't even thinking about that. That would be so sad. Next season could be big for Liza. If she continues her upwards trend, she has a chance to get to GPF and everyone there has a chance to medal. I hope she can choose her own GP assignments so she can miss Rika and Zagi.
Liam Robinson
They can't cross each other according to rules
Josiah Diaz
Sorry, forgot Kihira was not the third
Nathaniel Watson
Is that because of WC medals? That's kind of bad because Med sucks. I have a feeling Med will get an easy schedule, RusFed loves her. Like Med+Kosto, Zagi+Shcherba, Trus+Tuktik.
Kayden Long
She's 16 so I'd guess yess. It's not their final form.
tfw finally summer, day before Easter. it's beautiful.
Adrian Kelly
>day before Easter it is actually over, infidel!
Gavin Jenkins
>finally summer >it's still snowing in my siberian shithole
Xavier Carter
i still can't believe a beautiful story like Alina's happened. a ray of sunlight in this jewish created hell.
Carson Rogers
repent, apostate. where you at blyad?
Joshua Cruz
it will be probably soon over.
Cooper Collins
I am pretty sure she has earned enough money to live a good life (well, by russian subhuman standards at least) without having to work ever again even if she retires tomorrow.
Connor Stewart
Southern Siberia
Brody Campbell
thanks for pointing to a 2mil sqkm area. what oblast at least if you fear the fsb knocking down your door.
Zagi has probably somehow 'luck' with the Japanes' lolita-complex, thats for sure. But unlike the others (Sotnikova, Julia, Tuktik, Medve) who archived success in fs, Zagi was the only one in the latest period, who got heavy commercial-contracts.
If I remember Kiira Korpi, she ended up as a millionaire only by Japanese beauty-contracts. So, I am pretty sure, Zagi already could buy herself a datcha in Sochi and open her own zoo. Everything which will follow for her is just a bonus, but who knows what will happen. Since her body seems to survived the puberty-problem, maybe she will even appear at olympics once again while the quad-stuff will completely fuck up due to big titts and big asses ...
Sebastian Powell
Just started watching figure skating. So is this guy supposed to be hero or the villain?
Don't you have to prepare a new program every season?
Jack Gray
The little faggit used his program over 3 years ... so probably nope.
Kayden Young
She might as well go off and do JAV(BTW, there's only one figure skating JAV that I know of and it's lame). Almost as bad as the programs Sotskova was given by when she went to CSKA.
John Reed
You don't have to but most people do to keep things fresh.
I root for Alina Zagitova as the future queen of the resurrected Golden Horde, Anna Shcherbakova as the new princess of the Golden Horde's western realms, Daria Batiaeva as the heir of the Yakutian Khaganate and young Alena K. as the future empress of the Golden Horde's transatlantic dominions.
churka is objectively a shit pseudo-human being
Caleb Campbell
>You lot should be ashamed of yourselves for sexualizing innocent kids...
>obviously It's not obvious at all. I doubt they pay some aging armenian loser that much.
Aaron Richardson
except she doesn't as she has a contract with the local russian distributor not the main hq. she didn't even make it in the russian female top 10 earners for 2018.
Jose King
>trusova Unless she and all her teammates get banned for doping. They do deserve the ban and it'll eventually happen sooner or later.
Ayden Wright
Ummm that's why I said every competition they enter sweetie. The dopping show can only go on for so long before a stupid Russian forgets to take the masking agent!
>my favorite skater get more money from sponsor than your, loser! Lol next thing you will be argue which one fucks richer oligarch
Henry Miller
No. Those vids in Nike insta were made by people from exactly "the main hq" in Oregon. That's a global contract, unlike Zagi's Puma which is local. Go to Puma's insta and you'll never see Zagi instagram.com/puma/ Go to Nike's insta and Medo has vids with millions of views there. instagram.com/nike/
Joshua Diaz
since the pretty skaters still underaged, the old skater either ugly as fuck or lesbian ... ... the oligarch play no bigger matter in this case.
Asher Wright
yeah ... Nike is the sjw-brand, which tries to be "colorfull" with all kinda niggers all over the world. People burn their Nike-shoes as protests .. wouldnt be proud to be part of those faggits!
> I feel like she never really nailed it Exactly. Just like Zhenya's last season first SP. Fun, and you could see she liked it, but could not skate clean. Many such cases. I hope Sia is a better fit for her.
So what, quads aren't special anymore, Akaki, Tursyn, Rika, Truska, Valieva can do them, just on top of my head. Even with quads, Shcherba can't win against Kosto. SHCHERBACHOKE
nope! I just dont think quads have any advantage at that age. They should , specially that autistic girl, work more on here presentation than on her jump-fiesta.
She thinks she's better than everyone. When given the choice, people will always support a self-made man and not someone with easy life (Lebron vs Steph). Also see
"stars" on ice indeed >The first thing I noticed was how utterly EMPTY the arena at Nassau Coliseum was - I felt absolutely horrible for the skaters for having to perform for such a relatively empty space. When tickets first went on sale, I thought they were super expensive but I still really wanted to see Nathan so I grit my teeth and spent the money. But I'll never do that again now that I saw how many cheap tickets became available the day of the show for literally 1/10 of the price I paid! (my ticket was over $200 - I know, I know!) My friends and I were able to move up closer from where we had bought our tickets because the section we were in (which was centered and close to begin with) was mostly empty.
Grayson Smith
>Can't even spell official correctly
Julian Bailey
Probably, but only after Elizabet retires after 2 OGM.
For me it was her magazine appearance together with other elite kids. She was like fish in the water there and you just knew that she was not any different from all the other silver spoon kids who think they're so much better than anyone else. Even her quotes there were cookie cutter phrases any her richmates could say. Like how nowadays is a great time to live in because everyone has an equal opportunity to freely express themselves. Fuck off will you. Oligarch kid with a weird hobby, simple as.
Well she is a russian subhuman after all so don't be too harsh on her.
Matthew Adams
Aren't most of skaters from rich families, skating is pretty expensive? Zagi's parents are also well-off. There's nothing wrong with having rich parents, I just feel more for someone who had to work harder.
Austin Taylor
Yulia was poor af now she is high class escort for ologarghs
> Zagi's parents are also well-off. Thats why she still lives in a shithole with her babushka, ey?
Sebastian Sullivan
Not necessarily. You literally only need to buy a pair of good ice skates (or you can rent them). There are many free rinks with coaches for kids in Russia, and if you officially become a member of the national team they pay for everything.
Nolan Evans
I thought she had those billion dollar contracts you and Romania told us about.
Eli Turner
maybe she saves it to open an own school.
Jace Flores
surely she bought them a new flat?
Jacob Young
Do only white and asians care about fs?
Daniel Adams
she got a flat from tataraistan-ruler after olympics, but no idea what happened to that.
Isaiah Butler
The "living with grandma in a tiny flat" part is fake. Just a beautiful, tragic story about a brave, hard-working girl. Even the Zagi-babasyan drama was probably orchestrated by their PR managers.
Gabriel Roberts
only 1% of white and 5% of nips care
Matthew Taylor
she gave the izhevsk one to her parents. it's a pretty nicely decorated flat iirc.
Jeremiah Phillips
with how many niggers or sandniggers did you come across FS?
Hunter Murphy
She lived with her grandma. 100%.
Parker Howard
m8, zagi's parents were barely above poorfag level; her mother did nails in a salon in izhevsk and her father was a hockey coach in the russian 2nd league; i don't think that pays more than 2000 euros per month combined for a family of 4 living in a 3 bedroom commie-block flat a few km from the urals. plus babushka's russian pension of course.
is your argument really >why are kids of rich parents behaving like they're better than us? you're literally hating on her because she happens to have a father that got rich, having been a poorfag yaroslavl physics student, from a few websites for women and used his massive gainz to offer his kids a life most can't even dream about
i'd understand if he was some kind of mafioso, but he ain't and their family is a model to strive towards. if i was mean i'd say it was envy, but being poor myself i can at least understand your frustration.
then that means the joke was literally years in the making watching those 2015 periscopes where she regretfully eats jam and kompot alone in that decrepit flat. a child that had her first made to order skates after she was an olympic champion.
how much in euro is >food for 3 meals/day >1kw of electricity >1m3 of water >1kw of natural gas for heating, or m3 if you're billed like that >1l of petrol gas 92 octane >1 month of internet and mobile phone service
About 20 eurobucks for the internet. About 50 cents per liter of gas. 15 cents for 1m3 of cold water and slightly less than 2 euros for hot water. 2-3 cents for 1kw of electricity. I can't tell how much it costs to make 3 meals. I can tell that 1 liter of milk I buy is 1 euro. Sugar is 0.50 euro. 1 kilo of pork with a bone is like 8 euros. 750 gramms of bread is 35 cents. I don't remember how much I pay for heating because we have district heating here but it's the most costly bill for sure.
25 euros for cable, internet, mobile 1.35 euros/l of gas 1-2 euros/m3 cold water 8-10 euros/m3 hot water (most have individual gas heating) 0.14 euros/kw electricity 1-1.25 euros/l milk 3% sugar same 5 euros/kg of pork without bone 0.5 euros/kg of bread
it seems you have high food prices and very low energy prices. expected food to be really cheap there. seems your reagion, if you're the khakassia guy is not that great to live in compared to say chukotka or sakhalin where i saw the average wage is between 800 and 1300 euros.
Brody Morales
>average wage Doesn't mean anything when the inequality is as high as in Russia. You should compare median wages instead, and as far as i know there is no official statistics of median wages for obvious reasons (=they are extremely low).
Christian Hernandez
NEW
Lincoln Wilson
Yeah, Im that guy. Prices on meat are very volatile and depend on a season. Like before winter you can buy shit 30-40% cheaper. A lot of people juts buy like the whole pig and put it in a freezer. Chukotka has giant by russian standarts wages but it's like far north and there's nothing to do there except working and fishing. Sakhalin is all about oil and shit so they have money too. Damn. I feel like i will have to move my ass somewhere one day.
