Kuzina called the problem the different rigidity of ski jumps in Russian cities

Junior World Diving Vice-Champion Elizabeth Kuzina said the different stiffness of ski jumps in different cities in Russia is a problem for athletes.

This is actually a real problem. For example, at our permanent base “Lake Krugloye” the boards are quite stiff. When they were first put in place, it was very difficult to push. I just got used to it when we left for Saratov for the Eurasian countries cup. And there are very soft boards that you had to push as hard as possible to push well. I even panicked. But then I noticed that not only I had failed, but also our strong skier Nikita Shleikher. On the second day, we more or less adapted to these boards,” the athlete told RT.

The match outfit TV channels will broadcast the Russian Diving Championship, which will be held from June 24 to 29 in Yekaterinburg at the New Aquatic Palace.
