“Q: Malinin showed a sequence of two quadruple axels in practice. Does that still surprise you, or is nothing impossible for him anymore?
Tatiana Tarasova: Nothing is impossible for him. He is perfection, and he keeps perfecting himself.
Q: Will we see a quintuple jump from him soon?
Tatiana Tarasova: I don’t want to say anything in advance; right now, the Olympics are at stake, and he can’t afford to slip or, God forbid, get injured. Maybe after the Olympics. He has set a new world record. His records won’t be broken anytime soon, not for a very long time. Decades will pass, and they will still stand.”
