From Shae-Lynn's tweet, they're working on Yuzuru's LP choreo at the Granite Club, not at TCC, so it's good Brian Orser is not letting his own professional affiliations limit Yuzuru.

I am curious about Granite Club. While browsing its website, I find it is the home rink of Pchan in Toroto!

Wow, thanks for the 360 of the rink! (really cool)

It's a bit ironic that Yuzu skated at Patrick Chan's home rink when he's his rival. Am I the only one who thinks this way?

Anyhow, I'm glad they (Yuzu and choreographer) both looked like they enjoyed creating the LP/FS. ;)

No more ironic than Yuzuru having a Canadian coach and choreographers in winning the Olympic gold medal over Patrick and continuing the Canadian curse. ;)

Thanks echotpe for the links to views of the Granite Club.

Thank you echotpe for the information.

Nice facility. Japanese rinks are limited in number and crowded all the time. So, the skaters who target the top level have to use the rink very early in the morning or late at the night, paying much money. There is now the National Training Center for the athletes mainly of summer Olympic sports. I really hope the government would spend more money for winter sports as well. It may be good for the reconstruction of Tohoku, just my thought :)

It seems that Yuzu's new FS program with Shaelynn has been finished! I can't wait to see it!

uuhh, thanks for posting that, now I'm getting really antsy :biggrin:


wow, that thing looks huge :eek:



completely unrelated, but this here just popped up on tumblr (about Orser's app)


edit:
just read the text below with the example
"Let’s relax and look at the wall in front of you..."
yes, yes, we know, it's like crashing into a wall and all :laugh: no wonder the kid likes the thing

what is this exactly? Is it an advertisement that uses Yuzu as a testimonial?

thanks in advance!
There was another post from this tumblr user regarding this yesterday
As I understand it, this user has a trial version of Orser's app which has just been released. And yup, I guess those emails to subscribers would count as advertisement. Seems like it's just Orser talking about his experiences while creating the app and the feedback he got from skaters who used it.

I guess you could just check out the website itself if you want to know more ;)

I don't know why Yuzu has always made me cry with his FP at the World
Championship since 2012.

①2012 at Nice
He twisted his leg before the competition, he didn't say anything about
it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0bCvXHtzx4&sns=em

②2013 at Canada
He had flu after 4CC and couldn't practice skating for a while and then
again he hurt his knee and ankle before the World. He couldn't jump well at the
SP and he came in 9th.
He cried after the SP...[emoji24]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TB9122f5Upc&sns=em

But he tried to catch up at FP landing quad jumps so that 3 Japanese
male skaters could attend the Sochi.
He did very well with his bad legs...

http://youtu.be/bn7yFU9aZ1g

(While he was waiting for his score, he mumbled "it's hurt, it's
hurt..." rubbing his knee )

③2014 at Saitama, Japan

He had sore back...
and also at the SP, as you may know some crazy girls screamed "Yuzu
Aishiteru (I love you!!) just before the music starts and the moment he was
about to concentrate on the FP, and then he fell at the quad. Although
he said such screaming didn't have any effect on his performance (it was
his fault, he said..), I was there and could feel the atmosphere in the
rink was completely changed because of such bad behavior. It was
impossible for him to concentrate on his SP in such bad situation..
Then he was about 7 point behind Machida..
His face looked like Samurai at the FP. I could feel his strong decision
that he never fall any jumps and complete this R&J2 program perfectly.
And he did well and revenged a defeat!

I was so nervous before the FP at the a World this year, but some people said Yuzu always show his great performance at every World Championship, so I expect his revenge and he really made us cry. I was too moved to see his performance when he
did Ina Bauer.. I just want to say thank you to Yuzu!!

Ok thanks for news but even I red the website and the messages, I still don't understand what is the peak performance skating ?
What I understand that it is an app which helps people to be focus on what they are doing, through relaxing music and a voice of a hypnotist ?
And Nam, Yuzu and Javier has used that and they reached the peak of their performance, and he is convinced, it is thanks to its app, and so he is doing advertising for it, right ? Did I understand the thing ?

Yes Yuzusan, that's my take. It sounds like visualization and meditation routines to "free your mind" and focus on whatever activity needed. At least where I live (No California) these types of exercises are becoming quite common. My company (8000 employees) has meditation sessions, and my daughter's high school gathers every morning to meditate to make the transition from home to school.

It's not surprising to me that Yuzuru has found it beneficial, given that he's trying to balance a rigorous university curriculum with the demands of an elite athlete. And then there's trying to relax yet be very focused before skating competitions.

Wow so the US are in advance ;) In France, it is marginal. But maybe it would be interesting to test it.
