“Akatyeva won the Russian championship thanks to the components, although the imaging of her programs should be better” – Gurbanberdieva

Double world champion and triple European champion in synchronized swimming Maya Gurbanberdieva believes that the imagery of the programs of the champion of Russia in figure skating Sofia Akatieva should get better, despite his age.

– Sofya Akatieva won thanks to the components – rotations, step sequences, although the imaging of her programs, despite her age, could and should be better. Anna Shcherbakova and Alena Kostornaya , being at the age of Akatieva, they beat more technical rivals precisely because of the creative component of their performances. I’m sure Sonya will definitely improve and grow in the creative part in the future.

If you choose between her and Kamila Valieva … I’m not thrilled with Camila’s program, exactly the same as Sophia’s production, but in Krasnoyarsk, Valieva, in my opinion, definitely looked better than Akatieva, riding an “aortic rupture “, Gurbanberdieva told Sport Day by Day.

15-year-old student Eteri Tutberidze became Russian champion in Krasnoyarsk, ahead of Kamila Valieva by 2.42 points. Third place was taken by Elizaveta Tuktamysheva.
