Yuzuru Hanyu: 2016-17 Season

[sajoya]

At the Autumn Classics thread, people made it sound like he was crawling on all fours to finish the program but after watching it, it wasn't that bad. I mean sure, he was out of steam but he still kept up with the music and performed beautifully. Well done!

I think it's within reason for J5 to give the loop -1. It wasn't the best of his landing - pretty whippy landing and his foot came down pretty fast.
Weak landing (bad pos./wrong edge/scratching etc) -1 to -2
The 4S one, it might be possible that he clicked wrong? Because the same judge gave him +2 for the 4Lo and the 4S was done beter

I just took another look at the jump and no way is that deduction worthy. Zeros sure, but not a -1 (not a +2 either while we're at it). I have no clue at all about the 4S. Bizarre. Ah well.

Lol I guess the image of 330 Yuzuru is stuck in their mind I think this is normal early season start for him, he was kind of like this during last season AC too

Did he sniff his medal that is so cute hahaha

again?? What, do they change the scent every year? Different kinds of maple syrup?

Yep he did!

What kind of jump he tried after victory ceremony? I just saw his feet...its very typical for him not to leave the ice with an incomplete feeling, he wants to find the problem, I really like that about him.
So: I am not afraid about Hanyu, there was something today which didnt work the whole day. As if there again was something with the ice, not getting grip.
And you watched the episode with Misha at the gate :"you first...no you.... "

For the judges who gave negative GOE on first two jumps, I think its time to get new glasses!
also ChSq1....what?

Yeah, i just watched it, it was still somehow impressive. Well, i was prepared for the worst, that's why it doesn't look that bad

 

[Lindacrow]

I kinda miss his biellmann... I glad he is not straining his back/shoulders anymore to do it, but it was a unique thing to see in mens figure skating :roll9:

Yes there is no longer one. you can find the list of who is judge no 1,2,3 etc somewhere I think

Still his words aren't there. But press conference seems to be held soon. Let's wait!

 

[mcq]

Btw I love how Yuzuru is just dying of laughter after Misha took out the phone from under his shirt

also ChSq1....what?

Pretty sure that all choreographic sequences have the same base value and the differences are introduced by the GOEs

 

[Hanmgse]

Is there a link for the medal ceremony, looked so fun!

For now, it is blank, but hopefully they will add it here soon. It was up for the ladies after their FS, but strangely still blank for ice dance too.
