2014 Cup of China Mens Short Program 11/07

[juuryokunashi]

He just popped 2 jumps there didn't he...

 

[mirai4life]

promising start into a disaster

 

[shiroKJ]

I expected as much lol...but I thought he'd at least get that combo in

 

[bartlebooth]

AARGH!

 

[Winnie_20]

Uh oh...

 

[juuryokunashi]

Some interesting pcs today.

Am I the only one not affected by the Hanyu-fever/mania?

Not affected either. I see technical superiority and adorable personality off-ice but presentation/interpretation-wise, still not quite there yet?

Light blue ombre sparkly blouse, black pants

3A - spread eagle entry, nice
CSSp
FCSp
3T - oh no!
3Lz+COMBO - low landing, stepout
StSq
CCoSp3p

Ouch! Two botched jumps and no combo, far from his best. He looks pale...

SP: 38.53+44.42 = 82.95, 2nd (out of 11)

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Nope, he's not one of my faves either though I can see why he gets the marks he gets. And why he's popular.

His fan fest thread will probably break the whole GS forum at some point

I do have nothing but for him though :yes:

 

[adelia]

He's carrying an injury, clearly looked quite laboured.

Nope.

 

[begin]

Ughhhhh Kovtun leads. Yuzuru WHY.

 

[Florencito]

Now that's something I wasn't expecting. Not even the combo hwell:

 

[OS]

Just as well... my screen froze half way. Sigh... hug the pooh bear Hanyu!! Hanyu need a hug!

 

[Matilda]

Yuzu That was so unlike him.

 

[shiroKJ]

You know what this means though? He'll do great at GPF and WC lol

 

[lady_bee]

He looked so pale from the bigging

 

[foruiz]

Wah!:scowl:

 

[HanDomi]

ok, better chance for great LP tomorrow

My observation too! He looks so pale (especially around the eyes).

I had a feeling he was going to screw up, oh Hanyu....
