How would you describe your relationship?

Ivan: We have a very good relationship! There can be some misunderstanding, but we try to give way to each other. During training, when one of us is not in the mood or something is uncomfortable to perform, we stop and talk it out. We don't have any drama or quarrels. Through all the years we’ve been skating together, we only had one loud quarrel, heard by our entire group.

Alexandra: It was the only time that you could even call it a quarrel. We calmly solve our issues together at all times. Vanya knows my character and I know his. We know when to speak and when to shut up. It's easy for us to work together. When I first moved to Moscow, I lived with Vanya's family for a while. His parents took care of me and I thank them so much for that! We were very young; I was only 11. We spent all our time together in the house and outside, playing snowballs, making snowmen!

Ivan: Sasha and I have trained together for 12 years, which is half a lifetime for us... So we know each other perfectly well; when to talk and when to leave things unsaid, when to support and when to remain silent. That's why our relationship is so good.

Alexandra: After vacations, when we haven't seen each other for a while, Ivan tells me: "Oh, I missed you so much!”, then I feel very happy! I can't imagine someone else saying that to his partner.

absoluteskating: #MKJohnWilsonTrophy mixed zone highlights. Christina Carreira and Anthony Ponomarenko. A: An injury I sustained in 2015 gradually got worse over the years, until I had many opinions telling me I needed surgery. So it was about strategizing and finding the time to do it, as there’s not really a perfect time, we thought at the end of a quad it would be good to take that step back so we could take a few steps forward later. We had a very unique off season where we had to adapt. We put in a lot of work these last few months, and I think that shows. We’re really happy with the performance, and we want to carry on that momentum. (about Christina's US citizenship) C: I’ve had my green card for a while now, still waiting for the passport but it should be set for 2026. That’s all that matters! I live in the US, but we train in Canada, so I commute every day across the border. (about coaching team) C: We added Maddie Hubbell and Adrian Diaz to our coaching team, and all three of them (w/ Scott Moir) work so well together, they all bring something different, so together it's really the full package. They are all amazing. For me it's great to have Maddie because she’s a girl, so she can help me with the movements and show me how it's supposed to be done. It was always great working with Marie France in Montreal, but it's nice having someone with us every day. A: And being an American skater, she knows all of it. She has fun stories to tell. We’re very happy with our team, especially with the addition of Maddie and Adrian. Definitely gave us a boost of confidence. (about Anthony’s parents, 1992 Olympic ice dancing champions Marina Klimova and Sergei Ponomarenko) C: They get nervous! That’s why they’re not here! A: They get very nervous but they are supportive. They watch the event, and when we come on, they close the computer, and open it again after. Christina and Anthony finished fourth in Sheffield and are preparing for their second GP event, #GPEspoo. 📸: @tuerush
