Figure skater Yegor Rukhin spoke to about his goals for the current season and thanked the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR) for giving him the opportunity to participate in two stages of the Grand Prix series.
At the second stage of the Grand Prix “Heart of Siberia” in Omsk, Rukhin took 10th place (199.56 points). At the third stage of the series in Krasnoyarsk, the athlete became sixth (207.89 points).
— What goals have you set for this season?
— The main goal was to get into the season, because there was very little time. I think I succeeded. I’m very happy that I only managed to jump two quads. Furthermore.
— Were there any changes to the training process after the first stage?
— I did two stages in a row, so I had little time left. Even if they had more time, they wouldn’t change anything drastic.
— This year, the federation is organizing Grand Prix stages in Moscow, Krasnoyarsk, Ufa, Samara, Omsk and Kazan. In which Russian city would you like to perform?
— There is nothing I would like to play in a particular city. I’m happy that the federation gave me two steps. “I am very grateful to them,” Rukhin told .
