MOSCOW, November 20, Oleg Bogatov. Winner of the competition in Samara At the fifth stage of the Russian Grand Prix, Petr Gumennik showed magnificent clean skating, and in the near future the skater can improve even more, said champion and silver medalist of the Olympic Games Natalya Bestemyanova.
Gumennik took first place on Sunday, scoring a total of 300.66 points (100.79 for the short program + 199.87 for the free program). The second was Roman Savosin (288.46; 94.66+193.80), the third was Alexander Samarin (263.21; 90.69+183.82). The competition took place on November 18-19.
“”Peter skated very technically and very cleanly, very emotionally. All levels, luxurious quadruple jumps – he had never had such a skating program before. There was a Salchow, a toe loop, a loop and, probably, two triple Axels. He jumped a luxurious cascade triple lutz – triple loop, this is a very rare cascade. And for him this is not the limit, because Petya also jumps quadruple lutz, he prepared it in the warm-up. But at these competitions he did not have to take risks, “said Bestemyanova.
“Because the main opponent was Roman Savosin, who performed three quadruple jumps, a toe loop and two Salchows, as well as a triple Axel. His content was cheaper than that of Petya Gumennik. Therefore, after the warm-up, the coach told him that there was no need to jump Lutz “This is not a very stable jump for him, and when he becomes stable, he will have at least one more quadruple jump. Because they are training him and he was already planning to put it in the program. And then the fifth quadruple jump is not far away,” added the agency's interlocutor.
