  • Zhulin: ‘It feels like there have been changes for the better’

“Of course after the court it was difficult. I was very disappointed – because in training everything works out for me. I knew it would be difficult for me here – because I feel all this pressure and excitement, even the condemnation of my decision to change my training place. I am very It is painful to hear all this, but I am still glad that I made this decision. I feel like I am getting stronger , more mature.

Where will I continue to train? Honestly, I don’t know yet what I’m going to decide. But I’m definitely very happy that I decided to change something in my life. It’s the right decision for my career, I want to progress and move forward. For me, it was an invaluable and incredible experience. Of course, it is difficult to achieve visible changes and improvements in three weeks, more time is needed.

It’s probably the toughest tournament of my life. I didn’t know how the audience would accept me – I was very afraid of the audience’s reaction. But, you know, it’s easy to judge and condemn when you don’t know anything about an athlete, what drives him and what’s inside him. But I have to think of myself and my interests. Yes, every skater has ups and downs – but I believe I will rise and be able to pull myself together.

In Moscow, we tried to work on jumping and sliding technique, but time was running out. I believe that if I can train more there, I will improve in all aspects of my skating. Daniil Gleikhengauz helps me a lot with skating, but in general the whole staff of Khrustalny works with me, they are always together in my training, everyone helps, invites and corrects something,” Grassl quotes Sports.ru.
