– Very cool, I liked it. We have to adapt differently. When I was little, I watched the Chinese championship, they said for a long time that each jump is an elimination event. I really liked it, I want them to try this format in the Russian Cup and Championship.
— You came first in all the rounds, but you finally took second place. What emotions?

— You’re back from vacation and you’re already in great shape. How did you prepare?
– The shape is far from the best. We prepared for three weeks in light mode, 1.5-2 hours a day. We made a program for the competition, then we have a training camp, and after that I go on vacation for ten days.
— What advice would you give to journalists who are going to try diving today?
“The most important thing is to jump vertically, contract the muscles and tense up.
— Do you remember your first 10-meter jump?
– Honestly, no. I don’t even remember when it was. Probably between 7 and 8 years old.
— A gymnast is performing today. Does he have an advantage?
– Yes, I saw him jump. He has a huge advantage. He could appear at our competitions, “Ternovoy told .
