Figure skater Grigori Fedorov after competing at the Russian Championships, he explained to why he failed his quadruple jump in his free skate.
At the Russian Championship in Chelyabinsk, Fedorov took 13th place with 237.98 points.
— The performances were full of serious errors that could have been avoided. But we now have a clearer idea of what we need to work on.
— Perhaps you are more satisfied with one of the programs?
— No, rather separate elements.
— The second quadruple lutz is a butterfly. What happened?
— During the jump, I felt that I was not flying normally and I instinctively opened up.
— What did the coaches say?
— Although we did not analyze the programs in detail, we congratulated him on his debut.
— This season, there is a lot of talk about the weakness of the refereeing. Are you satisfied with the grades awarded?
– I got what I deserved. He is in his place in the final table, taking into account all the mistakes made.
— What competitions can we expect you to participate in?
– I do not know yet. Maybe a show jumping championship.
— Are you going to repeat your success like last year, when you became the best in the individual tournament?
— We will work in this direction. A lot of guys are great jumpers. Moreover, the rules are still unknown,” Fedorov told .
