“Sometimes we play jump. » Figure skaters Artemyeva and Bryukhanov talk about competition in Slyusarenko’s group

Skaters Yulia Artemyeva And Alexei Briukhanov practicing pair skating, spoke about his work in the group of coach Pavel Slyusarenko.

At the last Spartakiad of the Strongest, the couple took third place with a total of 218.70 points. In addition, the athletes twice finished third at the stages of the 2023 Russian Cup and fifth at the national championship.

“What I like most in the training process is probably the moments of preparation for competitions,” Bryukhanov said at the Championship.

— We have good competition in the group. We’re about the same age, we all have the same interests. If someone competed as a junior and someone as an adult, it wouldn’t be that interesting. We see other couples practicing and try to follow each other. Sometimes we play jumping games: who can jump more or who jumps harder, we do stunts. How to characterize trainers? Strict, but at the same time kind and friendly. They love their athletes very much,” Artemyeva added.
