“I am very happy to have won, but Iā€™m even happier to have landed the two quads. I prepared for that and I did it. After I landed the quads, I was very happy, but I still had the rest of the program to do. There were still three difficult combinations to come and I had to pull myself together.” Trusova said in an ISU interview.

The ice skate was posted YouTube and hundreds of thousands watched her break the records

People on the internet couldn’t believe how talented she is at such a young age, many keeping left comments to encourage the young record-breaker.

“What a fantastic program, it seems she is more in the air than on the ice. A real princess!”

If Trusova is this good at 13-years-old, we can only imagine how good she’ll be in her twenty’s. Will be looking out for her in the Olympics

What a miraculous display of athletic ability, Trusova is in a league of her own and it shows. With talent like this, I expect her career will lead her to the highest levels of competition. I’m sure there are many other records that she’ll be able to break on her journey.
