Figure skater Sinitsyna explained why she no longer teaches triple axel

Figure skater Ksenia Sinitsyna explained why she no longer learns the triple axel element.

— Have you tried doing a triple axel?

— Yes, precisely in the 2019/20 junior season they even wanted to include him in the program. There was a triple axel ready. I remember at the Russian Championships we gave it up because I didn’t skate the court well. We decided there was no need to take risks and make the situation worse.

After the Russian Championships, I didn’t qualify for the World Junior Championships, I came to training the next day and broke my leg. I arrived at general physical preparation, I had nothing to lose. I was just training, jumping on the steps, my leg came off, and that was it. Broken. At first we thought: it doesn’t matter. I returned home, then they decided to take an x-ray and put me in a cast for three weeks,” reports the Championship according to Sinitsina’s words.

This season, the 19-year-old athlete won the fifth stage of the Russian Cup Grand Prix in Samara.
