Last weekend, in Penza was held Russia Championships, 13-15 Oct 2012. A competition for 1997 girls and older. Seems Shtelbaums now is training a new girl, an OMSK gymnast born on 21st July 1997, her name is Anastasia Kadochnikova (Анастасия Кадочникова). She has a twin sister-Anna Kadochnikova (Анна Кадочникова) also doing RG. They both competed in Russia Championships this time. The twins took part in CariPrato with Zhenya last year. From those Oleg’s photos, Anastasia was wearing Zhenya’s leo (Zhenya’s rope leo in 2010) and Irina Tchachina’s leo. She has the same starting pose with Zhenya’s 2011 clubs. 🙂 GOOD LUCK to this girl and Vera Shtelbaums, Wish them ALL the BEST!!!

PS. Usually, the juniors in last year will compete in senior competition in the end of the season. That’s why you see some 1997 girls here.
