Game: what/who is this?

I'm not sure that Tatiana Tarassova was her coach, but maybe she helped her to make one or two programs during Summer.

I remember that during one competition Tarassova was sitting next to Surya in the kiss-and-cry zone. But I'm not so sure...

nevermind...

and it's my turn (again )

1. Skater (man)
2. Part of an ice-dance couple
3. His best achievement on big competitions (Euros, Worlds, Olympics) is 3rd place
4. His wife is born in Russia, but competes for his home country
5. He's blond

Good luck!

It's hard Maybe René Lohse?

Can I ask you about a hint ?
Who competes for the home country ? Him or his wife ? Maybe they skate together...

I think it's about the wife.
And she competes for his country also as a skater?...or is it about another sport?

Yup, his beautiful russian-born Margarita

Yeah, it's Povilas Good job, zayka!
I'm sorry if I wasn't so clear about WHO exactly competes for WHICH country, but it would be too easy if I say that he competes with his wife who is Russian baaad Vania, I just wanted to make it not so easy to guess

Lerochka, it's you again!

Oh, yes Povilas... Easy, but I didn't think about him !

Don't worry, milichka! Everything was clear! The task was very interesting, but it was very easy for me, because you know I adore Ritka and Povik

Yeah, right! Me again!
1. She is a super-well-known.. athlete.
2. She was born in the same town with some other great russian athletes - wrestler Alexander Pushnitsa and swimmer Roman Slyudnov.
3. She was only 12 y.o. when she was invited to the national team.
4. She wrote a book "How to become your own self", where she wanted to share some secrets of her success..
5. About half a year she trained for a new profession, she switched to another sport exactly.

I know this will be super easy for my sestrichka, but.. but what can I do - she is my twin!
I hope someone will guess before Lanochka comes here

Yesss, it's easy. I'm sorry I didn't let someone else guess ... but this is what happens when you ask about our favourite gymnast, sestrichka.

It's Ira Tchachina!!!!!!



I really want to read the book about her. Aw well... My turn, yes?

Ha, I knew that she was a gymnast, but any idea about who exactly. And now, what does she do ? Which sport does she practice ?

Oh, of course, sestrichka! Bravo!

To tell the truth, I don't have her book either. I tried to find it, but..

She is a skater now an Ice-dancer.. she skates with Ruslan Goncharov

Ira & Ruslan's last dance. Evgeny Doga.
If the first link doesn't work for you..

Hmm....wow....I'm so, so, so curious!!!
I saw some videos with her (from you, of course ) but I never imagined her skating. With Ruslan?! this is a surprise...

She is very pretty, btw

RG!!!!!! if it were AG, i wouldn't know...

It is simply not right that you don't know about Irina Tchachina, Marina! I should post a video for you, because she is absolutely brilliant!!! Ira just retired last year, I was so sad. But... now she's doing figure skating... with Ruslan? hehe. I have seen two of their programs already (not the one Lerka posted, though. ), their lifts are fab because of her flexiblity! hehe.

Kisses!

Ah, she practiced RG ! That's why I don't know her. You know, I like gymastics very well, but I know more gymnasts from AG. (but... now I remember there is a photo of her on your site Lana...)

That's really too bad. Of course, her book hasn't been translated into English. But, I would like to have it, anyhow.

I know!!! It's fabulous. strangely enough, i think like ira & ruslan better then elena & ruslan. I hadn't heard anything about her in a while. Her and Laysan did a gala at an event, but that was months ago. So, it's really great to see her competing again... in a skating competition!!!

And thank you for the video, sestrichka!!!!!!!! *hugs a million times* :xxxxx: It was so fun to watch! Their program was very pretty. I wish I had that music, I love it. hehe. And the training part was hilarious. Can you tell me a bit of what they were saying?

My turn, innit?

1. She is an actress.
2. She has won an Oscar.
3. She went to the same high school as Lenny Kravitz.
4. She has been married more then once.
5. She has a tendency to get romantical involved with her co-stars.

This isn't very hard, I don't think.

Oh, I understand that. I think AG is absolutely amazing , but I just know more about RG. I guess because it is my sport, I spent a lot more time researching it. And yes, there was a photo of Irina on my site!

Anyhow, Ira was my absolute favourite gymnasts for years. She was very talented and even won the silver medal at the 2004 Olympics. She just retired, last year.



If you are interested in seeing one of her routines, this was her hoop routine and her ball routine from Olympics.
