Figure skater Pleskacheva: “The goal of the season is to have as many quadruples as possible”

Figure skater Lidiya Pleskacheva told that she plans to add quadruple jumps to her free program at competitions.

On Tuesday, Pleskacheva took sixth place in the short program of the All-Russian competition “In Memory of Olympic Champion S. Grinkov” with a score of 66.00 points.

— A good start to the season, I rate it 8 out of 10. In the off-season we worked on programs, rotations and ultra-c jumps: axel, salchow, toe loop and lutz. I don’t jump Lutz often yet, but I train Salchow and Axel. We plan to put them in rental shops. Maybe we’ll try tomorrow.

I really like my new short program. Who put it? It’s a little secret, we are finalizing it with the choreographers. What goals do I have for the season? There are as many quads as possible in the program, and I also want to include the face and emotions.

— Lyubov Rubtsova performed the skating test in her dress. How did it happen?

— Lyuba didn’t have a dress. They told me not to go out without a dress, so I had to give myself mine, “Pleskacheva told .

Pleskacheva is a bronze medalist at the Russian Junior Championships.
