1999 Canadian Open - CTV interview

CTV: Elena and Anton, how did it feel when you stepped onto the ice today?

Elena: We feel good. I feel good because I was prepared and feel ready for doing this program, exactly this program. And I feel really great.

CTV: And how about the feel of the crowd? Did you sense that they were behind you after the first couple of jumps hit?

Anton: Sure, it's a nice crowd. It's really important for us skaters because I heard everything and it's really helping and it's great.

CTV: Now tonight's program with first place now pretty much means first place at the end of the night. Are you just going to go out and have fun?

Elena: Yes, we try. Now we skate for audience more because it's like a exhibition number and I think it's really good.

CTV: Will you play it up for the judges?

Anton: No, I think the marks was real good and it's right for our skating.

CTV: Thank you very much...
