Figure skater Alexandra Trousova long jump without spikes to avoid injuries, said honored coach of Russia Evgeny Ter-Avanesov.
On June 9, Trusova competed in the junior long jump (U20) during Moscow Athletics Week. The figure skater made three test attempts and took last place with a score of 4.10 meters.
Spikes increase the risk of injury because they involve more sudden movements that you must be prepared to perform. It was possible to find spikes for him, but they didn’t, because the athlete’s health is the most important,” Ter-Avanesov said as quoted by RT.
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 without falling. He won the silver of the Games.
