Figure skater Mark Kondratyuk commented on the performance at the second stage of the Russian Grand Prix in Sochi, and also spoke about the “unfortunate” compositions in figure skating.
Kondratyuk won the Grand Prix stage with a score of 279.00 points. Second place was taken by Alexey Erokhov (241.05), bronze went to Petr Gumennik (236.63).
– I heard that in figure skating, there are compositions that skaters try to avoid. They are unhappy. Like Requiem for a Dream. I think it all depends on the person. If you believe in it, then maybe it can affect you. In fact, I think these are very difficult images that not everyone can do. Probably, when driving at full speed, it is very cool. It’s harder to do than a love story. It is more understandable for everyone.
I can’t say now the workouts weren’t intense enough. Maybe I messed up somewhere. I will do everything in my power to improve myself. I think there was not enough time.
We put on the program in the evening. After 3pm I drove it all the way. It was the night from Saturday to Sunday. On Sunday afternoon, I already rode it. Compared to what it was, today I rode well, you could say, I flew.
There is a certain image in this program. I need a little more time to put it into words. I will tell you in Samara,” Kondratyuk told reporters.
