Очень трудолюбивый парень👍талантливый музыкальный красивый. Удачи тебе Илья во всем.❤❤🎅☃️❄❄❄❄❄🌲🌲🌲

He’s just so beautiful to watch, quads or not…

Ilia is a poetic machine. This young man is a force to reckoned with.

Отличный парень, Илья Малинин!!! ❤⛸️🌹✨👏👏👏❄⛄🎄☃️

Очень рада за Илью , молодец, и много побед в будущем желаю ! 💕

Love Ilia! But this video is a poor AI creation. Somebody make a real video for him, please!

[@user-mp1hv2ng4z]

Congratulations on your world title. Amazing. Also superb at the gala in Montreal

[@excalibur1812]

Why all the footage of random people?

[@mosart7025]

For real! They have no connection to the story and are very confusing.

lol it is funny

[@Serendipity-gj2me]

Agree found it so annoying. Nothing to do with Ilia Malinin.

[@innapilasevich1039]

Молодец!!!

[@ninarouzoubaeva4500]

Спасибо родителям Ильи за такого уникального фигуриста!!! Очень рада, что он, как и мои внуки и правнуки - русский американец! Браво, Илья!!!

[@divinaparayno4181]

The USA Olympic FS org literally failed to identify the greatest figure scater is not the first time as might that they lack the skills and Ilia first and foremost he was being discriminated. This year, IM was absolutely incredible, has proven to them in 2024 World Figure Scater that he is the GOAT. God Bless him. Take good care of your health...

[@marcip6820]

To me, Malinin is more Russian than American. He is an excellent jumper and I look forward to him eventually reaching the level of Yevgeny Plushenko.

[@fsbagent711]

i wouldn't be surprised , if he considers himself 100% american

[@fortunatocaceba756]

He was taught by his parents, Russian blood and school.

[@fsbagent711]

@@fortunatocaceba756 shure, but i doubt very much he wants to live in russia. so he is an american with russian roots

​@fsbagent711 Ilia has never been to Russia and no plans to do it in the nearest 15-20 years

[@ElaineSnow-ed8cm]

A wonderful, gifted and dedicated skater, I still worry about the effects these quads have on developing young bodies. Often, they lead to groin injuries, the usual kiss of death to a male skater's career. I am sadly reminded of the great Alexi Urmanov, whose brilliant career ended when he was barely 20, due in large part to a groin injury. Of course that was 30 years ago. Hopefully, sports medicine has evolved to save these burgeoning careers. Go, Ilia!

[@tatianaponomareva5774]

He is incredible! ❤

[@nancydavieau]

Beautiful Beautiful Boy

[@lazyriver53]

Why the focus on Russia. Ilia was born in America which makes him an American who skates for America. He doesn't skate "under" the American flag.

[@netcomru2824]

Well, actually he is genetically Russian, and American is not a nationality, but a citizenship. He is pro-USA and loves his country, but he is still Russian by nationality.

[@lazyriver53]

@@netcomru2824 Nope. My maternal grandparents came from Poland. My mother was born here. She was an American, no question about it. My fraternal grandparents came from Ireland. My dad was born here. He was an American. He fought in WWll for America. I'm second generation, I'm an American. Please don't insult the American people with your ignorance.

@@lazyriver53 Being first generation is quite different from second generation. He is definitely American, but is still part of two cultures. His parents are russian and train him with the russian methods of figure skating

[@sr.giselamariagarlock]

He was born in California, so he is a natural American. My mother is a German, but I am an American-well German - American. Ilia Malininin is a Russian-American of which he should be proud.

[@edmundgeswein]

Interesting, but they need to do a remake of this video and make it more like the up close and personal clips from the 1988 Olympics where they featured Brian Boitano and Brian Orser as well as athletes from other sports. They'd start out with an airplane flying over a map to the place where the athlete is from then they had this short jingle with victorious sounding music. They would then go in to a presentation about the athlete. Some was narrated but there were also parts where the athlete spoke and they would tell about their road to the Olympics, things they are interested in other than their sport and what their life goals are in and out of their respective sport. They were really interesting segments. Something comparable to that would be a much better presentation than this video.

[@ТатьянаСафарова-н1б]

Внешне похож на маму. И в катании что-то напоминает, хотя у Ильи совершенно мужское катание.❤

[@PartiallyGeorge]

The editing is atrocious. Whoever did it should be ashamed of themselves. Congrats to Ilya though.

[@netcomru2824]

Well, just because you didn't like it doesn't mean everyone else doesn't. It's the format of the video.

@@netcomru2824 using stock video/images, accompanying every single word of the commentator with them - it's not only unprofessional, it's evil, whatever everyone else thinks about it.
