Figure skater Khavronina: “We follow the performances of dancers at international competitions, this is our favorite activity”

Russian figure skater Irina Khavronina said this with his partner David Narizhny monitors the performances of foreign dance duos at international competitions.

On Sunday, the dance couple Khavronina/Narizhny won silver in the first stage of the Russian Grand Prix in Magnitogorsk, scoring 204.46 points in a total of two dances. Alexandra Stepanova and Ivan Bukin were first (207.40), third were Sofya Leontyeva and Daniil Gorelkin (193.64).

— We are happy with ourselves, we made two clean skates. Not bad for the first start of the season, we were well rated,” reports the correspondent, according to Khavronina’s words.

— Have you discussed it with the coaches?

Khavronin: They said it wasn’t bad, we’ll work. They congratulated us. We will evaluate the season at the end, but now we feel more confident and calmer than last season.

— How would you describe your skating style?

Khavronin: I would describe our skating as sincere, truthful, not theatrical. How we feel is how we show up. The coaches listen to us, thanks to that we have lively skating.

Narizhny: We do not interfere with each other, this is very important. We don’t have a place or item that we were afraid not to do. We have costume materials that don’t slide very well, it’s sometimes a little difficult. But that’s the only small problem.

— Do you follow international dances?

Khavronin: We always watch, we follow. It’s interesting what the guys are skating. We discuss and evaluate in our own way. It’s our favorite activity.
