Irina Privalova acting head of the All-Russian Athletics Federation (VFLA), shared his impressions of the performance of the figure skater Alexandra Trousova in the long jump.
On June 9, Trusova competed in the long jump at the junior (U-20) competition as part of Moscow Athletics Week. Trusova’s best result, which was credited, is 4.10 meters. The figure skater took last place.
– We have an unusual format in general. For the first time ever, Athletics Week is moving from kids to veterans. I think the performance of the stars will benefit everyone. In addition, the format of the competition allows it. Yes, there will be official starts, where there will be preliminary races, but here there should be a show.
It seems to me that Trusova has enough fans not only among figure skaters, but also among fans of athletics. Even I once did figure skating and I fully understand what an axel or rittberger, a sheepskin coat, is. The fact that Trusova trained with us today will help her in her sport and, you see, the quintuple jump will work. Why not? Privalova said on .
Trusova, who turns 18 on June 23, was the first in history to be able to perform five quadruple jumps in a free skate at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing. He won the silver of the Games.
