Bisweshwar Nandi, Dipa Karmakar’s coach said to the media that Karmakar will train in Moscow for a month in May.
Karmakar decided to withdraw from the Commonwealth Games selection because she was not yet fully recovered from the knee injury. She is currently training for the Asian Games that will take place in August. Her coach said that while she won’t be competing the Produnova vault soon and will downgrade to easier vaults for now, it’s still her plan to go back to doing this vault in the future.
Russian national team has their own camp abroad in May – they are traveling to Spain, so Karmakar might not necessarily get a chance to train with the top Russian gymnasts. However, the experience of training in the state-of-art facilities should be greatly beneficial in her preparation.
