Figure skater Pavel Drozd do ice dancing with Elizaveta Shanaeva said their couple was not ashamed of their free dance performance at the Russian Championships in Chelyabinsk.
On Friday, Shanaeva/Drozd finished fourth in the free skate with a score of 119.47 points. They also finished fourth in the short dance and took the final fourth place (196.26 points).
“We are happy with the way we performed in the free dance.” Yesterday we said that the Russian Championship was the central start of the season. There are nerves, I want to show the best of myself. Lisa and I did a good job. Art comes first, we are happy to have been able to please the public. We are not ashamed of ourselves, we did an excellent job. We will be even better. We’d be fools if we said we weren’t completely devastated. I can say this: according to our team, we did our job well today.
—Are they judged strictly? In general.
— I wouldn’t paint everyone with the same brush. You cannot draw a single conclusion about one thing, everything has its own nuances and everyone’s skating is different depending on the disciplines, ”reports a correspondent, reporting Drozd’s words.
— Good performance provides motivation to go further. It’s easier to look from the outside, there are signs. We move away from ourselves. Thank you to the public for coming to support us today. “Thank you also to our coaching team,” added Shanaeva.
