Evgeny Medvedeva: First of all I would like to thank everyone for their support. I know how much worried about my family and fans. I have their support gives strength and confidence. Most memorable - the reaction of the public. Never in my life I have not seen and not accompanied by such an ovation. This is amazing. The most unexpected happened after the free program. I am extremely upset because of falling at the last jump, but when put up evaluation, I was so impressed that he first began to cry in front of everyone.
In one interview you said that you are planning to learn and perform a quad Salchow. This is a joke?
No seriously. Perhaps, at the end of the season I will be the quad Salchow. If I'll learn some jump "ultra-C" category, it is a quad Salchow. But so far no attempts, I have not yet taken.
You learn in the ninth grade. How to combine their studies with professional sports?
This year, I will take the main state exam - it will be my first serious test of the school. Of course, it is difficult to combine sport and education. Before the European Championship I took a little break to prepare for the OGE, but now I will again engage with teachers walking to school. Of course, not every day you get, but the free training days I spend in school, writing checklists, test OGE. Before the World Cup there will a little break, and I'm hard to prepare for an important exam.
What subjects are most easily?
Geometry, biology and history.
Do you love to draw. At the exhibition in the Tretyakov Gallery Serov did not go?
I do not even know about it! I'm drawing on the amateur level. I can take a paper, a pencil, an eraser and draw whatever comes into my head. For me, painting - splash of emotions, inspiration, which accumulates. I was very soothing.
At the demonstration performances you took to the ice for the band's song "City 312". Why?
In this song a deep meaning. You should always remember and take care of people who you really roads.
Now you have a favorable in terms of the results of the period, but after big wins always decline occurs. In addition, you continue to grow. We discussed the issue with the coach coming?
Each victory - one more reason to continue to improve. I am often asked on the topic of growth. In my opinion, it is not necessary to go in cycles: it is necessary to trust the coaches and work with them in unison. They are experienced people who know what's best for me.
Are there any areas of activity in which you would like to realize themselves after sport?
Yes, I have one small, purely women's dream - after the sport go to makeup artists. Maybe it will change many more times.
Recently, you said that you love Japanese culture and cuisine. Are you friends with a Japanese skater?
A competition can not be avoided. With some Japanese figure skater, we write to the social networks. We exchange parcels, gifts. As for the love of the Japanese - everything is nice ... and very tasty food!
How much land can eat at a time?
When we came back from the European Championship, then immediately after the airport went to a Japanese restaurant. To be honest, I do not think much of the time I can eat. Lots of!
How would you describe figure skating?
This is more an art than a sport. We put our hearts into our performances. Not only physical forces are spending, but also the soul. Sometimes, you skated both programs and you realize that you have no strength to even smile at someone, laugh, be happy. There comes an absolute emotional devastation, because you're all out on the ice
Worried before going on the ice? How to deal with it?
With music. Before the European Championship a little more worried than over the rest of the competition. Helped music. Hour and a half I go workout headphones and more of them are not rented. I constantly play the same songs that soothe and motivate me.
It turned out that your main rival - compatriot, teammates, friends. Does it matter?
When I go out on the ice, I do not think about competition. My thoughts - only qualitative jump, high-quality hire. I want to show his inner world, to give everything emotionally and physically. The idea of competition stepped aside because adjusts completely to the other way.
Your sport in popularity is not inferior to football with hockey. Do you think that so touches the viewer?
People enjoy the beauty of movement and the sincerity of the emotions that we express on the ice, and after rolling in a recreation area. It really is pure emotion, no affectedness.
What is the role of parents in your career?
Parents have always understood and supported, no matter what I have going on inside. They know how to help me in any situation. When there is some stress, which happens very rarely, they give advice on what I work on, brush up on that. Parents - this is a huge wall behind which I feel completely safe.
How to respond to comments in the press and on the Internet about her performances?
The main thing - to know how to answer that. To be absolutely calm and confident. This is a short but very precise answer.
