I thought it looked more sparkly too. Probably sparkles that he stole from Patrick's and Javi's costumes

"Out of this world" is right. Big shout out to Jeff Buttle for choreographing this gem for Yuzu. I could watch it over and over! :hap93:
I watched the presscon and Yuzuru, Patrick and Javi was asked about if they have something to say to the younger skaters (like advise) and Yuzu said :
"nothing. If anything I am the one who is motivated by them. I trained with Jun hwan and he is very consistent with 4S and has good skating and good expression. Kraznoshon ratified a 4Lo and it motivated me to do my 4Lo well. I feel the junior skaters are the one who also challenge me to improve myself" -- something like that not a trans.
So Patrick just basically said he agree with Yuzu and Javi add a bit, saying by having experience, sometime you compete good sometime you compete bad and basically you just have to get through it.
P.S : I don't know why, I feel so emotional listening to this, I am so going to miss these three when they exit competitive skating, they are so good for this sport and has given us so much. :sad4:

I'm so thrilled with his SP!! I haven't watched live yet this season due to time differences, but I able to tonight and I was so nervous! The smile after the 4Lo was honestly adorable, it reminded me of his fall out of his spin haha to just come out of it with a smile and then bring it all back together.
Also, his English is really good now! He's using a much bigger vocabulary even compared with last season. I'm glad he tries to use English in the press conferences as well because as much as it might hurt his brain, it's how he'll improve even faster. Kind of got the impression Patrick was losing patience in the end though. I thought I heard Yuzuru apologising at the end but I'm not starting anything there

Another part of the press conference that stood out to me was him saying that the SP is "not complete without the audience". He's putting a lot of emphasis on the audience this season, even with the FS as well, and I think it's such a great thing for him to be focusing and improving on. He's selling us the 'live experience' now, not just giving a performance and it's like what Jackie Wong said in his piece: He feeds off the audience's excitement, he skates faster, he lands jumps with a glare and a smirk, and he puts so much more into the execution of every move.
I'm really loving his progress this season. :luv17:

Grishin - TAT commentary on Arena TV Channel.
Gr: We just have to see one more SP on this first day of GPF competitions - the SP of the Olympic Champion Yuzuru Hanyu. He turned 22 just a day before the start of the competition.
TAT: Oh, he held on! Oh, what a man! 4Lo.
Gr: 4S-3T combination.
TAT: What a stunning glittering costume which keeps changing its colour slightly all the time - apart from everything else!
Gr: Hanyu is as fantastic as Prince to whose music he's skating.
TAT: That's a genius 3A which I adore! He's showing an absolute freedom of the torso and arms while executing any elements of figure skating, including spins. He's improved very much in conditioning. (when Yuzuru does his on-knee lunge) I haven't seen this yet...
GR: Hanyu is capable of surprising even you?
TAT: Yes, since it's new, re-done. He's got no problem with putting his foot on his head! Bravo! Just bravo! The audience is on their feet, bravo, and I'll stand too, I think. What delight!
Gr: it was worthwhile waiting for this and watching all the other events, supporting (your favourites) and getting nervous. I was watching the audience - they were in an uncontrolled frenzy watching the last 30 seconds of what Hanyu was doing on the ice. There's an incredible number of toys and flowers on the ice. The Japanese fans came here just to watch this.
TAT: It's fantastic! What a program! He looks stunning and free while skating it! He's very talented! Now he's filled up - he used to be very thin, he used to be just a little boy! One could see that he had an enormous talent. The Japanese always get these incredible skaters. Look, his push-off from the ice wasn't good, but he still made it! He still held on! What nerves he got that jump through with, but he didn't just give up on that jump! And here he does (the combination) in just one touch, not one redundant move, no move for getting ready for his second jump in the combination, he's just ready to jump it while he's jumping the first jump. Very flexible - well that's what he was born with. There's he's jumping off a rocker. Here, this thing stunned me - not that he put it on his head. Alexei Yagudin used to put his foot over his head in sit-spin in a similar way. But that he skated on that spread eagle, powerful, very new, all turned over - these people never stop seeking and they find something new when they have such a talented person. This is also worth a lot, the fact that he always bows to his coach.
Gr: Yuzuru has shown who's running the show today (literally:who's the master in this house), he's the only skater to go over 100, his result is 106,53. It's not his record result, but it's beyond the reach for the others. There are nearly 7 points between him and his closest competitor, Patrick Chan.
TAT: He didn't skate for a while, he was getting his foot treated and there were some operations, but he has such a core strength within him, such a desire to win, not just a desire to win, but to perfect himself. Winning comes second - but he strives for perfection. That's what I can wish to everyone!

I adore how he gushes over him but I admit, my favorite was her tone when she saw the slide for the first time
and when she speaks of his torso/arms. So many tend to say bad things about them even now, but not her, and this isn't the first time she's spoken of it. Thank you.

Also, as usual, lots of practice clips from michlmint/upnights: https://www.instagram.com/michlmint/
He took 3 tries to do the 3A one after another, resulting in a beautiful 0.5A(?)-1A-3A sequence in a circle haha: https://www.instagram.com/p/BNxblU9hiAr/?taken-by=michlmint

Yes, his English is so much better and bless his heart for trying! I find his facial expressions as he searches for the correct word absolutely adorable.
Spending so much time in Toronto has helped him become much more comfortable with the language. Who knows, by the time the Olympics roll around he may answer all the questions in English!

Comments of the spanish ladies:
- Paloma:. We have only left to watch what Yuzuru Hanyu does. And the bets, a lof of people think Yuzuru can win his 3er consecutive title ???(I think she was mistaken).He won the NHK trophy but he was second at Skate Canada.
- Susana: Woah! 4lo! He fought for it.
- S: 4S-3T combination
- P: There's a women at the crowd that is gonna break her neck
(During the first spin)
- P: The japanese crowd is devoted
-P: Oh! What a set up for the 3A
After the program:
- S: Guau
-P:What a program! It's a different style from what we saw the other years. He enjoyed doing it and he made the japanese crowd who came to watch him enjoy too.
Really good!
- S:At the beginning of the season I thought Uf It's difficult to me to watch Yuzuru doing this modern style, but when he does it , it suits him great.
- P: He lives it. He's a bit out of this style but he has sold it. The 3A entry is sensational.He does a very difficult transition from a jump to another, with difficult steps.
-S: He doesn't stop doing turns.
-P:Also doing things with the upper body. And the arms,and the connection with the crowd,drawing attention and he invites the crowd to join the party he is throwing
He had a really god time!
- S:He did it really well. The choreo was great.It suits his style.At the beginning it cost me,I thought this program is gonna be ready or not.Of course it's ready and it's a great work.
-P: And he added the 4lo . We're talking about one of the most difficult jumps.
-S: Yes,because it's an edge jump,the pressure is on the outside edge and keep that edge getting the straight edge to do four revolutions is awesome. The combo,good ice coverage in the 4S and the 3t. The 3a's entry, look at the exit arc and the spins were very difficult with variations and the step sequence was level 4.
-(The TV shows Kikuchi)
S:this man is a bit peculiar.I saw him outside the practices and he always follows Yuzuru
P: This season he earned 103,89 but look at it, 106, 53. Amazing he has seven points of advantage from Patrick.At this moment the trio (Javi, Yuzu and Patrick) is at the front positions.
Edit: Sorry for the mistakes.I'm learning english an it's a bit rough
I hope you all ccan understand everything.
