Evgeni Plushenko began preparations for the Olympics in Vancouver, to be held early next year. In Novogorsk took "control skate" for candidates in Russia's national team in figure skating. Plushenko showed a short program - the number of the music of Chopin.
According to the coaches, despite a three-year break, Olympic champion - in good shape. After training, Plushenko told reporters about his plans for the near future.

P.S. note the reaction of Tarasova, while Evgeni skate - as constraints fists ![Смех :-)](./images/smilies/ag.gif)

(traslation)
- commentator (studio): Plushenko returned to competition, today in Novogorsk on "Control skate", he introduced its SP, tomorrow (Thursday) - LP.
- commentator: ... confidence and easiest in performing complex elements, even has a fire in his eyes.
- Evgeni said that he enjoy again in sport life, and happy to train every day. When he first time, after the Olympics, landed quad he was delighted, after 4-3 combo even more.
- commentator: He needs a lot more work, and that see only specialist - unideally steps, lack of power at the end of the program, but for beginning of August, he is in good shape. Professionals were nevertheless delighted with his skating. For a very short time, he regained all that was previously able - jumps, straight footworks, but even improve his previously "weak points" - spins.
- Mishin said that Plushenko's spins are better and more difficult now then it was 3 years ago, and all specialist agree with that. Now they working on other elements, which once were "weaker" in him.
- commentator: Little error after the quadruple jump, not a cause for concern, since it was done so because of leg injuries.
- Evgeni: It was just "precaution". Currently it was not necessary to jump 4-3, so I did not want to risk.
- commentator: There were and Evgeni's competitors, and carefully watched his appearance.
- Sergey Voronov: I am "afraid"

... but seriously, I very much likes his new program.
- commentator: His return to competition is no more intrigue, but Evgeni itself, in a short conversation, given the new: it is not excluded that it will prepare a brand new SP, which nobody has ever seen.
P.S. better would be for him to prepare "brand new" LP
