Olympic silver medalist in figure skating Alexandra Trousova On the air of “Children’s Radio” she spoke about her attitude to the nickname “Russian Rocket”.
– “Russian rocket”? That’s what the fans called me. Probably because I do a lot of quad jumps, and they decided to call me that. And high and spinning fast. I love all fan nicknames.
As for the choice of figure skating, my parents gave me at the age of 4, I liked it, and we continued to practice. There are times when it’s hard, but you always find strength, you’re going to keep studying because you want to succeed,” Trusova said on Children’s Radio.
Trusova is a silver medalist at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing, a bronze medalist at the World Championships and a two-time bronze medalist at the European Championships. She is the first figure skater in history to perform a quadruple lutz, toe loop and flip in competitions under the auspices of the International Skating Union. Since December 16, the athlete has been a columnist.
