if he announces his programs before it, I'm sure we will
If not, we can fill it with pages of pre-competition anxiety a week before
Yuzuru might have tried 4A in last November :eeking:
Triple Axel for the distance of 12 seats.

This is not fair, I want to see the video.
I wish someone translated that article, I tried to read it with Google translate and some parts sound funny, others may hint to something.
But I think there was one time when there was a video of an 4A attempt, I think it was a failed one but I think I saw him trying 4A before. I was two feet landing? Anyone remembers this?

Grand Prix Final next season 7-10Dec 2017 in Nagoya .
Saw some tweets about new Bathclin cm, but fans have given up hope on seeing Yuzu in bathtub/shower...the closest is this
Photos of Yuzu at an onsen in Beppu which he visited in 2014..source.

So fast :shocked:.
I gathered that the NHK Trophy the practice sessions would not be opened to the public, anyone knows whether it will be the same with this GPF?
I was half joking - but it really wouldn't surprise me.
Getting tickets/hotels for FS competitions is pretty crazy in Japan...
Very sorry, I was so surprised that I posted without translation.
Here is my rough translation for that report written by the photographer, Yutaka Nagakubo (no relative of Nagakubo Coach)
"It was last November in Nagano where NHK Trophy was held when Yuzuru Hanyu jumped "different" triple axel. He made an extraordinary lead in SP the day before, and was doing practice in the morning of the day of FS. After everyone finished their runthrough, the air at the section for photographers was rather dull. Taking a distance from other skaters, Hanyu jumped 3A twice. And, for the third time, he accelerated and did Axel jump with an extraordinary distance. One, two rotations….., between the continuous shootings, it looked he quit his jump in the middle and landed.
“He quit in mid-jump, didn’t he?”
“Yes, he landed before completed.”
Did he fail? I confirmed through the camera monitor, but he rotated 3 and a half turn for sure.
And the fourth 3A. He jumped awfully high, and had a really big fall.
A jump with distance, and a jump with height. I was not sure whether it was just a kind of variation, or it was in the midst of his challenge for 4A.
On 27th of last month, he finally appeared before us looking very healthy. There should have been so many fans who worried with very fragmentary information arrived since he was injured in his left instep. Grand Prix Series will begin in next month, and now people are more and more wanting to know about his new programs, costumes, and other information.
Now, the pre-season of PyeongChang Olympics. The conditions to win in the Olympics may be revealing. For FS, will the era of “3 types, 4 quad jumps” come? Or, more than that? Boyang Jin has 4Lz, and Shoma Uno has succeeded 4F. It is natural everyone wants to know about the third type of quad of the Olympic champion.
We have seen his landing 4Lo many times in practices or exhibitions. In Makomanai, last year end, I saw he was trying 4Lz (Sorry, I happened to see it when I went to the rink to place my equipment before opening). But these all happened in the last season.
I knew 17-year-old Yuzuru Hanyu.
That legendary Nice Worlds in 2012.
I knew his leg was injured.
“Stop him. No more skating, otherwise he would damage his ligament (I thought his injury was with his knee. Later, we came to know it was sprained ankle.) Probably, he himself was told the same thing. But he roared on the rink to shake off such thing, and danced for 4 minutes and 30 seconds too fierce to frame in the camera angle.
In the erupted cheers, I knew photographers who cried saying “His leg was injured, you know”, cried “I know him since he was little”, and cried “Now, he is so far away.”
I know he remains essentially intact since then. Because I know it, I’m scared. As for this season, even if his rivals increase the number of their quads, his incomparability would not change. But, even so, he is going to win with overwhelming programs. He cannot be Lysacek in Vancouver.
He is a person who changes such fears of injuries or our worries into his motivation to fight. So, I would not say any more. Maybe it is too early, but when he finished his skating in PyeongChang, I want him to point up in the air just like he did in Nice. Then, I’m sure I would be crying too."

Lol, I'm going to assume that all GPF's will be held interchangeably between Japan and Spain from now until the foreseeable future
