Honored coach of Russia Alexandre Jouline told that in conditions of exclusion from international competitions, the motivation of all skaters decreases.
Friday the 2020 European champion Dmitry Aliyev after performing the short program at the Spartakiad of the Strongest in Magnitogorsk, he said he lacked dynamism and spirit at Russian national competitions.
“It’s hard for everyone right now.” Motivation drops for all skaters. We have to try, to perform, if we still hope for something. In my opinion, you should strive to create motivation in yourself. It’s very difficult, but we have to try to find new moves on our own,” Zhulin told .
At the Spartakiad, Aliyev received 88.99 points for the short program and took eighth place. The men will present their free program on February 17.
Russian figure skaters have been suspended from tournaments under the auspices of the International Skating Union (ISU) since March 2022 due to the situation in Ukraine.
