The Italian edition of Oasport questioned the chosen training method for the preparation of Alexandra Trusova. In May, the skater left the Tutberidze-team, where, according to the world champion among juniors, she was "held back", and moved to the team of Evgeny Plushenko, who - after a month of joint training - advertised in the media a new ultra-si in the collection of the "Russian rocket" - quadruple rittberger. However, the video of the jump only appeared this week.

“Despite the obvious under-rotation, bordering on a penalty reduction in the base cost, the intention of the Queen of Quads and her team is clear: to show experts and fans that she is potentially capable of performing all quadruple jumps. No wonder Trusova's full-scale goal is to land all the quads in one program.
However, despite the commendable desire to trump technique, the Ryazan native's training method seems a little murky. Her recent successful comeback against the formidable Kamila Valieva at the Megasport arena in Moscow showed that in pure skating, three quads (lutz and two sheepskin coats) are enough to win, especially if the content is supplemented by at least one triple axel in short or free programs.
To what extent is it expedient today to study new jumps of high difficulty, associated with a health risk, instead of honing the already mastered elements that provide a spectacular reserve, for example, a triple axel? We will find out in the coming months,”wrote journalist Fabrizio Testa.
