Return of the talented judoist to native Penates well affected both on Yuzhnouralsk judo, and the sportswoman. Anna Pridannikova, having become the winner of superiority of Russia among juniors, I secured a position in national team and has good chances to prove on superiority of the world.

— Ania, we congratulate on a victory. It is possible to tell, what it for you became a starting point and break to future successes?

— Thanks, but hardly it any special. Yes, it is pleasant to win, become, certainly, the strongest in the country on the age. But I became already earlier a champion, two times was the prize-winner of superiority of the country among girls and a yuniorok. After all since 2009 already in Russian national team me regularly call.

— Why we almost heard nothing about you?

— The matter is that I for some time was compelled to move to Yekaterinburg and to play for Sverdlovsk region. Three and a half years fought there, a year ago returned.

— And why left?

— So it turned out that there was opportunities to combine study and trainings more. But I am very glad to come back home and play for the hometown.

— Means, the present success on superiority of Russia didn't become for you a surprise?

— By and large, no. I set the task to leave at least in the ending. And there already as it will turn out. Well and in decisive wrestling there was no wish to lose therefore it was well adjusted and I won.

— Competitors of a problem delivered?

— To my astonishment, no. Probably, it wasn't bad prepared for competitions, I gathered a good form and all tournament I passed on one breath. Somehow easily fought, without a pressure, each wrestling surely I won.

— And how many years you already are engaged in judo?

— Eight years. And I got to judo section absolutely casually. Initially came to register to karate school, but there for me there was no trainer. And I in the 12 years was already tall and strong girl. The judo coach noticed me, suggested to try to work. So I also appeared in judo. And when the first victory came, there was a spirit, began to train seriously.

— You tall and strong. Means, for you there are no problems to throw the guy on shovels?

— Well, looking what guy (laughs). Here Alexandra Mikhaylina hardly I will lift.

— But you will be able to protect yourself in case of need?

— Yes, but the knowledge and abilities in life didn't use. All problems and issues can be resolved the world... or on a tatami (smiles).

— And as jokes guys don't ask you to take them on hands?

— Hey yeah! Quite often ask. But I on such arrangements am not conducted. Not women this stuff — guys on hands to carry.

— Whether there is in your arsenal any darling and crown reception?

— At me cuttings especially well turn out: feet long and strong. I can't tell that it is crown reception, but with it I often win against competitors. Many know this my strength, but can do nothing with it. The foot as a hook works.

— It was by nature transferred or in itself developed?

— Most likely, in a complex. The nature tried, and we on trainings with the trainer placed emphasis on it, were engaged using my feet in the necessary direction (smiles) much. Well and coordination at me quite good, I feel the moment when it is necessary to do this cutting.

— You were strongly fixed in junior Russian national team. To seek to get to adult team still early?

— I think and. It is necessary to move systematically to the purpose and step by step to set tasks. Now I act on juniors. Means, it is necessary to prepare itself for proving on youth. Itself I feel that to me in the adult national team still early. And who me there now, such "green", will take?

— There, by the way, the head coach was replaced.

— Yes, certainly, I know about it. And it very much pleases me. Ezio Gamba — very strong expert. And it proved it on Olympic Games.

— Whether it happened to see it, to communicate to it?

— I saw, but to communicate it didn't turn out. I think, still everything ahead (smiles).

— And Euro-2012 in Chelyabinsk saw the eyes? A lot of things for itself on it gathered?

— Unfortunately, I couldn't visit competitions and very much about it I am sorry. Shortly before start of tournament I passed the Cup of Europe in St. Petersburg. There I got a heavy trauma and during competitions in Chelyabinsk was in the hospital with the broken leg.

— Broke a leg? How it managed you? In judo usually hands and shoulders most often suffer.

— Yes, it it was necessary to manage to break an ankle. Probably, it is the first case for all history of judo (laughs). Actually it was so offensive. I was compelled to pass almost all season.

— Who from elite of world judo imposes you?

— From women it is pleasant as Elena Ivaschenko wrestlings. And among men — Kirill Denisov. First of all against that he never gives up both on character and due to strong-willed qualities often wins. On the Olympic Games at it not everything turned out but as he beautifully won against Ilias Iliadisa! Wrestler, in a word. Besides it our, Chelyabinsk. The sociable and simple guy to whom always it is possible to apply or behind council.
