Valieva follows Liu on Instagram
But the main star of the evening was, of course, Kamila Valieva.
- I am pleased with my rental, if it were not for the step-out on the fourth sheepskin coat, then everything would be perfect. It's great that I gathered on the second quadruple and made it. I was mistaken - a little because of excitement, in some way because of technology. Not that I was worried about getting into the national team, any start is an excitement.
- Already thinking of Alice Lew and the world championship?
- We live today. Alice is not here ( laughs ).
- Good or bad, what not?
“She is another strong rival that encourages me to ride better, to make elements stronger.” So it’s good that she speaks. But here, too, all the girls are good, strong, Sonya Samodelkina with two triple axels.
- I watched the US championship where Alice won?
- Sometimes you leaf through Instagram and watch: “Oh, Alice!” And I look through small passages. We are subscribed to each other.
- Yesterday, after a short program, Sonya Samodelkina threw gifts on the ice. Are you friends with her?
- We communicate well with all the girls, it’s just that we are very familiar with Sonya Samodelkina. Three years ago we went to the junior championship of Russia together with her, Sonya Akatieva, Maya Khromykh, Muravyova.
- What was the most memorable start of the season?
- Probably, after all, the Grand Prix finals. I was able to go out on the ice after the fracture, tune in and skate a purely arbitrary program. In short I tried, but not accurately. He turned out to be a motivating lesson, gained experience.
- It’s not a shame that you are already at a high technical level, but can’t act as an adult? I would like to start already from the age of 14?
- Everything has its time. There is a rule that for adults only from 15 years old - that means from 15. If I take offense, nothing will change from this. (Usacheva adds: they should be allowed to enter the Russian championship next year!)
- You do not compare points? 238 points - this is a lot, at the level of Trusova, Shcherbakova.
- It is wrong to compare the results with them, juniors and adults have different evaluation criteria, a points system. Adults have an extra element, there is a spiral, we do not yet. And they are judged differently.
- That is, you may still have a higher score.
- I hope so. But adults have more pressure than juniors.
- By the final of the Grand Prix you did not have time to restore the quadruples, but today there were beautiful sheepskin coats. Did you get them back after the finals? A severe injury was the same.
- After the Grand Prix finals, quite a lot of time passed, I managed to recover. In two months the leg passed. Therefore, it became easier to enter the sheepskin coat, there is no pain. Previously, every attempt of a quadruple had a very painful leg, now there is none.
- The big start is behind, will you rest? At least there will be a day off?
( everyone laughs ) - One will probably be tomorrow. But we did not end the season, but the start. Time to relax a bit, that's when the season passes, then we'll see. In less than a month there will be a junior world championship, before this the final of the Russian Cup. It will be such a competitive combat training. I hope there will be many viewers.
