Evgenia Medvedeva, who was born in 1999, is a Russian figure
skater. Her coach is Eteri Tutberidze, the former coach of Julia Lipnitskaya. Evgenia
achieved high results with the performance to the music
of Rene Aubrey and Avel Korzeniowski in
the season 2015/2016. She is the 2016 World Champion, 2016 European Champion, 2015
Grand Prix Final champion. This amazing girl was winning championship after
championship.
She is the only one figure skater who performs jumps with
the arm over her head, which is her feature. In addition, she is trying to do
jumps with two arms over her head. Maybe we will see her doing so in the World
Championships. My favourite is how softly and fast she is skating. Her skating
looks like the flying bird, like figure skating is a very easy sport to do.
That is that thing which draws my attention to her beautiful performances.
She set two times a new record. The first record for the
free program gaining 151,56 points and the second the short program and the
free program together were 229,11 points(the previous world record 228,56 was set
by Kim Yuna).
In conclusion, Evgenia Medvedeva is a new star of the
Russian figure skating. I will hope that she will be skating even better with
the new performances in the season 2016/2017.
