Russian Nationals 2021: Pairs

Flutzes and Waxels Podcast

We wrap up this week's competitions with the Russian national pairs event, which was a bit rougher than usual, but still one of our favourite events of the season. We discuss whether it might be a good idea for the European and Olympic teams to be different in an Olympic year (as many Four Continents countries do), some teams cleaning up their recurring mistakes while we see other teams making mistakes we had hoped they'd gotten over, and why Russia should add at least one extra flight at nationals to really showcase the incredible depth they have in pairs skating.
