Though I am not fond of the actual SP , Yuzu is definitely selling the program in his very personal way , expecially in the second half of it, when the blues turns into a rock-blues .

Yuzu surely feels the rhythm and espresses the music, there’s a lot of power , energy, speed and fun … I loved the NHK EX and the encore when he skated to the SP step sequence wearing the traditional japanese outfit, what a contrast… it’s so funny !:)!

Number #817 got generous after NHK and put Yuzu'z interview online, before that it was available only in printed version. There's nothing particularly new, he talks about his training in Canada, which is such a nice Club, Javi inspired him, he has a team of people like Orser, Wilsons, Jeff, his basic skating was poor, in a group of 10-20 skaters from junior to senior practicing SS this Worlds bronze medalist wasn't the best, he had to be mature in his new progs but it was tough, etc. Basically it's pretty much the same stuff that we read in various sources earlier. The article: http://number.bunshun.jp/articles/-/307988 pics: http://twitpic.com/e/2k78
Yuzu arrived in Sochi, earlier than the rest of Team Japan, and that police officer doesn't look scary at all, it's just his way of "Welcome to Russia!" :) www.nikkansports.com/sports/news/photonews_nsInc_f-sp-tp0-20121204-1055568.html

Yes...about 1-meter tsunami came, but tsunami warning was called off several hours afterward.
I wish he concentrates on skating.

A great article about Yuzuru's life and career (thus far) came out today: http://www.absoluteskating.com/index.php?cat=articles&id=2012hanyu

A very well-written article indeed, and all the things Yuzu-san said make me respect him even more. He's so dedicated and humble despite his talent and success, and his attitude towards skating and life in general is simply - well, since I'm not a native English speaker, I lack proper words, so I'll just call that - wonderful. :agree:

Anyone have a British EuroSport version of Yuzuru's FS?
Stupid new youtube layout won't let me sort by most recently uploaded anymore!

Just like last year's GPF, he messes up the SP and comes back with a good FS! Let's hope that means he is gonna have a great worlds too!

Type in & do your a search, then click on the Filters menu. Sorting by upload date is one of the options.

I can't believe it took me this long to figure out but his stuffed pooh bear that's always by the rink at practice/skates is actually a cover for his tissue box. Like, duh! Smacking myself.
