 Tarakanova’s performance to ‘Fly’ and ‘Experience’ by Ludovico Einaudi featured a triple flip-triple toe, triple Lutz and a double Axel. The Cup of Austria Champion picked up a personal best of 67.90 points. “I did all my elements so I was looking forward to the points, maybe more up to 68 or 69 today. But 67.9 is my best score. I would like to skate more relaxed in free skating and to make the crowd enjoy my skating. I was first to skate in the team of Russia so that made me more nervous,” the 13-year-old shared.  |

 Figure skater Anastasia Tarakanova on figure skating, swimming, first competitions, her family, coaches, Grand Prix stages and stubborn character. - Nastya, you are from Volgograd, where there is a strong school for swimming. Why figure skating, not swimming? - As a child, I had a severe allergy, and the doctors said that you need to play sports. The best thing is figure skating or swimming. And at first my parents took me and there, and there. In Volgograd, where we lived, a good school of swimming. But I liked figure skating more. Although I continue to practice swimming, till now. It's for the back well, for the spine, for relaxation. Every weekend, my dad and I go to a fitness club. We swim, we are engaged in simulators. But now it's to help figure skating, because I really love figure skating. - Did you start figure skating in Volgograd? -- Yes. My first coach was Lyudmila Leonidovna Puchkova. She is a very good coach, she knew which athlete she needed. Everybody made their plans for training on ice, on the basis of PF. But at that time I combined swimming and figure skating, and since my dad was engaged in swimming himself, he saw me as a swimmer, so after a while I figured that figure skating was not mine, and we left the group. "But you wanted to come back." - In a month I told my parents that I want to go back to the ice rink, because I was interested in swimming, until the trainer changed. The first coach in our group was a man - cheerful, constantly invented something, played with us, arranged competitions between the guys. And then the trainer-woman came, and trainings became uninteresting, even annoying. You swim and swim from side to side and everything. When I returned to the rink, Lyudmila Leonidovna did not take me. More precisely, she would take, but she did not have the confidence that this will not happen again, and I understand her. So I started training with Irina Sergeevna Aksenova. With her, I won the first medal. But in my first competitions I was rather disappointed. |
