Triumpher of Turin-2006, presented to the public its new Olympic programOn Saturday, for the skaters Olympic team of Russia has started the marathon, which in February next year in Vancouver must end, either with triumph or disaster. Virtuosos of the skates, for the first time presented to the public its Olympic program. For the presentation was chosen small arena "Katok.ru" on Rublovka....
... The main event was the performance of Turin Olympic champion Evgeni Plushenko. He presented a short program to music by Chopin
(mistake, again ::yaz-yk:) in the arranging violinist Edvin Marton, who excited not only demanding professionals, but also and spoiled with spectacles residents of Rublovka.
Following the presentation by Evgeni pleased to talk to reporters.
- I am pleased to once again plunge into the competitive atmosphere, - admitted the champion. - Rivalry, chatting with fans and journalists - all this gives me great pleasure.
- You satisfied with performance?
- Frankly, I'm pleased that merely made a very complicated cascade - a quadruple toe loop and triple lutz. It is clear, that I should still increase speed and step sequences, and to my coach Alexei Mishin and me is perfectly represent, over what we should still work. But the today's skating turned out to be clean enough, and if I could repeat it at the Olympics - I would not mind.
- A week ago, you have a wedding with Yana Rudkovskaya. Supporters fear that, having plunged into family life, you'll spend less time for sport.
- In reality, nothing will change. Yana and I were together for so long time, we had time to check our feelings, and 12 September, we simply formalized our relationship. I love this woman, and Yana has done a lot for my return. Without her support, to do this would be much more difficult. She is present at each of my performance, at each training. Today, it's not, because she went to Kalmykia to see his children. But tomorrow it will again be, next to me.
- You have brought good luck Bilan on Eurovision. Maybe this time he will bring good luck to you?
- At our wedding with Yana to me already approached my friends and said they wanted to go to Vancouver to root for me and our team. This is Dima Bilan, Philip Kirkorov, Sergei Lazarev, Lera Kudryavtseva ... In-general, going to a decent company
and will have to somehow solve the problem of accreditations, with help from the Olympic Committee. By the way, I am sure that in Turin we were successful, thanks to the support, which in the stands created by our fans. I felt in Italy, as at home, and it helped me to win.
