[EdgeCall]

To clear the ice they better use a bulldozer.

Yuzuru HANYU (JPN)

Music: Ballade No. 1 op. 23 in G minor by Frederic Chopin

Blue ombre blouse, black velvet pants

4T - low landing, stepout, hands down
CSSp
FCSp
3A - nice!
3Lz+3T
StSq
CCoSp3p

Quad problem, otherwise nice. Might be enough for lead

SP: 49.92+45.28 = 95.20 (SB), 1st (out of 29)

 

[Ava Moore]

I mean sure if you like racists and homophobes.

Go Kostya! Bring out the doll!

 

[Lydia1703]

They DO need time to clear the ice

 

[evangeline]

How is his TES higher than Javi?

Levels on spins and steps.

 

[frieda]

Haha Orser seemed unwilling to be part of that undignified victory dance

Ahahahahahaha Yuzu's crazy amount of presents!!!!! They need more cute little children

 

[anonymoose_au]

OMG plushy avalanche! Or perhaps more accurately an Pooh Bear avalanche!

But I think Javi owned this tonight...

I wonder what Kotvun will do...

 

[satine]

How is his TES higher than Javi?

GOE, levels.....?

 

[jellyfishes]

Quite frankly, I find everything Hanyu does on the ice to be pretty. He even falls prettily, dammit.

 

[CanadianSkaterGuy]

A lot more crisp than Fernandez' skate... too bad about the quad error, but still pretty strong. Should lead, but shouldn't clear 95 (though it probably will).

 

[Naya]

wow So many toys!! Poor little girls.

 

[gravy]

Will they consider it as a fall? Looked like that.

It's up to the judges. Some may call it that, some may call it a step-out. It can vary.

 

[Doggygirl]

Briancam is hilarious! It's like Brian is skating pairs with his students from the boards.

 

[demarinis5]

Beautifully skated short program from Yuzu even with the stumble, Wow! This is my favorite SP this season.

 

[ArcticMonkeys]

Well done Yuzuru! It was not a disaster :yes:

 

[Krunchii]

Oh no.. I saw a banner for Yuzuru using the Rising Sun? In China?! How disrespectful of that fan

 

[jkun]

I think he increased his power on his strokes. There were very few cross-overs compared to lsat time I thought. how he didn't fall on that 4T or that 3A I idk. superman knees.

 

[Alchamei]

Not sure about combo rotation.

 

[solani]

He really is astonishing.

 

[CanadianSkaterGuy]

GOE, levels.....?

GOE yes.. I noticed some of his spins might not get level 4 because he didn't hold the positions as long as usual.
