Athletistic / Figure skating. Former Russian figure skater Maria Butyrskaya has commented on world champion Elizaveta Tuktamysheva’s decision to skip the season. The figure skater will focus on participating in ice shows.

“For me, Lisa is one of the most interesting figure skaters. She has been pursuing her career for so long, once again showing her perseverance, willpower and hard work. Honestly, I admire Lisa. Nowadays, It’s very difficult to be in such shape. .

I understand Lisa perfectly: the older you get, the more effort you have to make to be in such good shape. Figure skating is still part of everyday work, not only on the ice, but also in the gym. In addition to that, physical preparation, choreography, new programs.

Tarasova reacted to Tuktamysheva’s decision to suspend her career

Why did Lisa decide to put her career on hold? Lisa and I aren’t that close. It’s quite difficult for me to say why. Maybe because of the lack of international tournaments at the moment. She is a world champion,” quotes Legalbet Butyrskaya.
