Figure skater Lutfullin called Queen Tuktamysheva

2015 world champion figure skater Elizaveta Tuktamysheva – the queen, she works hard, we must pay tribute to her, says Gleb Lutfulline .

Tuktamysheva won the Panin-Kolomenkin Memorial in St. Petersburg, scoring 150.65 points in the free skate. At the same time, the skater took a fall. In total, she scored 233.41 points. Lutfullin took second place with 272.38 points in the sum of two programs.

– The end of the program must be finalized, roll. There are two quads at the end, they have to be done more cleanly. Of course, and follow-up, rotation. In the end, I kind of died.

What does your look mean at the end? You look around like that. Is it something from a movie?

I saw the movie, but I didn’t really like it. Movies like this are hard to find. I created my world in this program. At first it’s a classic, then it’s a funny boy who goes up, and at the end, when the blow arrives, I turn around. I aim, I see the target and they kill me. That is to say, I ride like an angel.

“Who had the idea for all these shades?”

– All together they came up with.

— Are you satisfied with the first start?

– Satisfactory, at 3.5. I can do even better.

– Are you happy to be definitely in the top three?

– Yes.

– Did you watch the performances of the previous participants?

“Look, I don’t mind. I’m calm. I looked and I’m going to take a tour myself.

– Have you watched Lisa Tuktamysheva today?

– Yes. She’s a queen, what more can I say. Well done! She works, prepares, we must give her her due.

– There is a lot of competition in men’s individual skating.

– First, I do not compete with competitors, but with myself. You need to surpass yourself. Other guys have a lot of experience, they are knurled, they ride a lot better. I think I’m not lagging either, I’m gaining momentum. You can even win with my set,” Lutfullin told reporters.
