The bronze champion of Europe in figure skating Alexandra Trusova admitted that the place taken in the competition is not so important for her. The main thing is to “roll back cleanly,” she said on January 15 in a commentary to Izvestia.
“I wanted to skate clean short and free, everything else is not so important. The place is not important, it is important to skate cleanly. I can say that maybe [четверной] the lutz did not work out because the sheepskin coat had failed before. I walked at a certain pace, and after the fall, I lost my pace. Perhaps because of this, ”the figure skater explained her priorities at the European Championship and the reasons for the failures.
According to Trusova, her form is getting better every day, she is gradually recovering from an injury and hopes for better performances in the future. For this, you need to work, the athlete noted.
