The news has long been in the air, was directly communicated to the Russian media by the estimated coach of St. Petersburg, which, in the coming months, you will be assisted by another technician highly decorated, and among his pupils peak in the past.
In fact, Oleg Vassiliev, winner of the 1984 Olympic Games as an athlete (in pair with Elena Valova) and those of 2006 as manager (with Totmianina / Marinin), decided to go back more than fifty years in his native St. Petersburg and has accepted the Moskvina proposal to work side by side at the Yubileyny Sports Palace.
According to the plans, just Vassilev at the end of the season should pick up the legacy of Moskvina, but from the beginning we will personally pair Gerboldt / Enbert back from a disappointing season rather conditioned by physical problems.
The peak torque of the new coaching staff will remain, however, Kavaguti / Smirnov, probably reached the conclusion of the career.
Tamara Moskvina, an icon of Russian skating pair, first as an athlete (side by side with Alexei Mishin) and then by coach, boasts an excellent record with few equals.
Among the associations are remembered by her trained Olympic champions Valova / Vassiliev (1984), Mishutenok / Dmitriev (1992), Kazakova / Dmitriev (1998) and Berezhnaya / Sikharulidze (2002), not to mention the winners of the world title Vorobiev / Lisovsky and medalists in various capacities Bechke / Petrov, Ina / Zimmermann and Kavaguti / Smirnov.
