Elizaveta Tuktamisheva || Skate  Canada 2011, SP


Tuktamisheva easily skated through her Latin-themed program, nailing six triple jumps including a triple Lutz-triple toe. The only glitch came when she did a double Axel-double toe instead of the planned double Axel-triple toe combination. The 14-year-old from Glazov in southeastern Russia earned 117.81 points and totaled 177.38 points. “I am very happy about winning this event,” the World Junior silver medallist shared. “I skated well and I have a lot of positive emotions right now. I didn’t feel a big difference between this event and the junior events. I try not to think about the importance of an event. I take each event seriously, no matter if it is a big or a small one.” The Russian Junior Champion admitted that there was pressure. “There is always pressure. There was and there will be pressure, but I try not to pay attention to it. I just want to do my job.”
