Jack, I’m sorry, but I will not after so many years of Dating to call you Evgeni Viktorovich and address on “you”. You have a new student?
Evgeni Plushenko: Not alone: in addition to Trusovo me to the Academy moved Veronica Zilina.
Video from the band Tutberidze. Tell, tell, and how do these transitions occur?
Evgeni Plushenko: I don’t tend to poach skaters. Or, believe me, is something to attract them, as some say, in financial terms. I’m always open with me, as you know, easy to meet, easy to get through. And now call.
Themselves athletes?
Evgeni Plushenko: No, they are still small. “The kids decided to go” – this was reported to me by their parents. So what is the solution of the skaters, which they make themselves, and purely parental. Take them as the took left the band Eteri Georgievna Tutberidze fifteen-year-old Sasha Trusov and Veronica Zilina, which will be twelve.
Eugene, on Zilina, already Bouncing in his eleven Quad, heard. Trusovo with her jumps admired. But now you have a lot of work.
Evgeni Plushenko: Ready to work 24×7 a week. All shows are canceled, will end the isolation and begin. Why I created the Academy? Not just that she was, and to raise the cool skaters. I set up very seriously. And I really like coaching is my passion, my profession. Love to be the one to show on the ice. Help me and coach Sergei Rozanov, who transferred to the Academy from the same school. I will allow myself to remind you that with the young skaters have already accomplished something. When I took Sofya Titova, the problem for her was jumping, not only in three turns, but in the two and a half. This already ended the season, she won all the competitions among girls her age. Triple and she went, and slide… I Think many come because they see that we work with very closely, professionally. Now we are building a new rink for skaters comfortable.
It’s understandable. But if you can ride with the same Sasha Trudovoy in all competitions, stand at a side to be around?
Evgeni Plushenko: Yes, you can: my prudent decision. And believe in the help of choreographers, which has already agreed. It’s foreigners, and our best. Now sit, draw up programs, select music. Think over images.
You’re already out on the ice with Trusovo?
Evgeni Plushenko There is now insulation. But communicate remotely. Strengthen familiarity. The outcome of all these viruses, just get out on the ice with a pre-prepared plans. Let’s just wait. And look at the end or even the middle of the season, what will be the new image of Trusovo what will become ofcolleenie.
Irina Slutskaya, two-time world champion, seven-time winner of the European Championships:
– How to comment on this? And so that process is normal, the situation is normal. At the end of the season the skaters move from one coach to another. Athletes are in search of, I want to improve, to solve more complex tasks that for various reasons have not yet succeeded. So did Sasha Trusov.
of Course, the former coach of the offense occurs. After all, given so much effort. But what can you do. Parting is also a part of the coaching fate.
Zhenya Plushenko has a very good already-prepared material. He has a real opportunity to truly Express themselves. Came a new phase in coaching. Everything is in his hands.
