“Tutberidze’s skaters face huge competition” – Goncharenko

Honored figure skating coach Inna Goncharenko said that athletes who train under the guidance Eteri Tutberidze they face great competition every practice.

— It’s difficult to answer now. On the contrary, we must simply wait until the situation itself pushes us to the need for some kind of logical development, a transition to something else. So far, everything depends on the purely personal factor of Eteri Georgievna. She has built a system whose meaning is the struggle for survival.

A large number of athletes are selected and face enormous competition in every training session. Moreover, people are selected not only based on physical and external data, but also based on psychological qualities. Every workout is a competition. The weakest are constantly eliminated. There remain those who will really tear all their rivals to shreds,” Goncharenko said, as quoted by RT.

Russian figure skaters have been suspended from participating in competitions held under the auspices of the International Skating Union (ISU) due to the situation in Ukraine.
