Tarasova coach: I don’t understand why create same -sex duets in figure skating
The honored coach of the USSR Tatyana Tarasova appreciated the idea of creating same -sex duets in figure skating. Her words are given by “All -Sport.”
The specialist said that she does not understand why the competition program needs to be expanded. “We would have to cope with what is. With juniors, with adults, species and categories and so enough, ”she added.
Earlier, the Olympic champion in ice dancing Natalya Bestemyanova supported the competition of same -sex duets in this sport. “Why not, let it develop,” she concluded.
In 2022, the Canadian figure skating federation allowed skaters of the same floor to form sports couples and dance duets at national tournaments. In competitions under the auspices of the International Union of Skate, such duets do not take part. Olympic champion Frenchwoman Gabriela Papadakis and American Madison Hubbell acted like a female duet at the Art on Ice Gala show in Zurich.
