Coach of the Russian team Artem Istomine in an interview with , he noted the move of two biathletes and remembered Tura Berger.
There are ten athletes in Istomin’s group: Kristina Reztsova, Ksenia Dovgaya, Ekaterina Noskova, Svetlana Mironova, Elizaveta Kaplina, Anastasia Goreeva, Larisa Kuklina, Natalya Gerbulova, Daniil Serokhvostov and Karim Khalili.
– Which of your services is closest to the standard in terms of technique?
The standard is a vague concept. If we analyze the background of Tura Berger, it is unlikely that anyone would want to follow her example. But remember how efficiently she ran uphill. As a result, all Norwegians now run the same. Externally, the similarity is weak, but on the video, the structure of the movement is clearly distinguishable and comes from Tura Berger.
There is no standard in the course – there is effective and ineffective technique. One of those who stand out – Serokhvostov , and not in groups, but in Russia. It is impossible not to notice Latypov’s solid progress in recent years. He tried to hook several components at once, although it is better to do it in stages. But Edik is one of those willing to work hard and analyze. It’s one thing to catch a moment in practice, it’s quite another to repeat it in the race, with a rifle, and even on skis, not on roller skates.
– Big difference?
– Skates are technically lighter than skis. It is easier to push them, and the pushing work is different, it is important to take this into account when preparing.
