YES! I was so startled at Koi Dance scene in the first minutes. It's like "Kitaaaa!":laugh:
Many shots I've never seen. Yuzu in red UA is so beautiful :love:
Should I watch the video again now? But it's already past 1:00am.

We all know this, but at the same time the younger competitors had more time stabilizing their quads, they have done that since last season, arguably. It was not the case with Yuzu, he is still adjusting his 4Lo and still has problem with 2nd half 4S3T. Upgrading layout means nothing if you can't deliver it, much like Chiddy or Boyang's case. If anything, splatting consistently would eventually hurt your reputation (Yuzuru of all people would know this) and would hurt your PCS in the long run (look at Mao). I guess that is why he is still reluctant and contemplating the risk and reward.
There is also injury-risk too. Any layout means nothing if you are injured by the time of the olympics. So many things to consider, actually. Whatever he would eventually choose, I hope he would have no regrets.

All of this is true, of course. Just pointing out that it's understandable he feels the pressure of those 5 quads after 4CC, especially given the PCS/GOE debacles, and it's a tough decision to make, especially since, as you say, he still hasn't been consistent with his current layout in particular.
 
Strange, I can't open any of these videos. They just appear as still photos for me... Twitter, whatcha doin'? Are they photos or videos, anyway?

He already practiced 5 quads before 4CC. Everything is just the matter of his health. As long as he is healthy, he will do 5 quads.

Everything will be dependent on how everyone skate at worlds, honestly, ;)

Personally, I am not against him adding 4Lz. In fact, if I were him I would have had that in my layout already. Why? Because I am already a frigging olympic and world champion who broke world record 10 times. I have nothing else to prove. If I can't get it done by oly, I would water it down or who knows, I might YOLO it. If I land it I will win and be more of a legend, but If I fail then also no big deal cause I'm already a legend and an OGM. Nothing to lose :dev3:

But well, I am not Yuzuru obviously. :biggrin: It seems he wants to choose the best strategy possible that will give him the highest chance to win. He knows his body best. He knows his limits best and he knows his own capability best :agree2:

All video clips and I think the last one is a picture lol.

Weird: all the ones marked as clips were still photos for me. The last one had a play button thingie, but you're telling me that's actually a picture? I am so confused. :laugh:

Edit: Found the issue. Mobile twitter links don't let me play videos but when I removed the mobile part from the link, it worked.

World's will definitely tell the story. If those PCS really shoot up for the quad kids, then the writing is on the wall and they will be even higher next year and adding to BV will be almost a must for the other guys. 4cc showed which way the wind was blowing, but it's not definite yet... I, personally, would take it all as a sign and work to get my BV up, just in case.

Thanks for the all the translations, videos, etc., from you awesome people on this board!!!:agree:
 
omg omg omg thanks for the Ice Jewels translation! I love reading things like this :D

I am in love with the way he moves his hips, i wish i could move them like him! My camel steps would look more impressive that way :laugh:
His expressions when dancing oh my god, seriously, every time i feel like i can't be deeper in love with him, something like this happens haha. The one when he is talking to (judges? or who are those people?) and does that dramatic pose cracked me up haha.

And i am a fierce defendant of the swan costume! I am emotionally attached to it, since my first memory of skating involves the black swan, and i fell in love with skating thanks to a swan ex :) the fact that he is doing it too makes me really happy (and if any of you believe in fate, it felt like all my life i was led to find him haha)
 
Thank you so much gladiolusc for the translation. You are a jewel :love: :agree: :thank:

I really really like Yuzuru's honesty and that he always focuses how he could improve himself and at the same time he also focuses on the positive things.

One thing I didn't understand and maybe someone could help me, when did he mean that he got negative GOE for his CSsp? He didn't receive a single negative GOE on it at SC or Autumn Classics though he got level 3 at AC (on the side note, I am in love with his "drum beating" to the rhythm of the music which he added at NHK)? :confused:

I think he meant he lost levels? Or that he meant that he did not get high GOE (like +2 and +3). He usually receives +2 and +3 on that spin, so maybe getting +1 is a humiliation for him :p

He did get a -1 for his FCSp3 at ACI. I guess it stayed with him and gnawed at him.

awwww :o::luv17:

He didn't say he got negative GOE, to me it read like he didn't get high enough GOE for his standards. SC was only +1 and +2, so he was fiddling to get higher. Humiliation was a strong word, but it's literally what he said XD So that part stood out to me as well.

Wow I wonder how his reaction would be like after that 0 GOE 3A. 3A is his beloved baby. :laugh2:

That 0 was a travesty!! A travesty, I tell you! Bar that judge from ever judging again!

(those would totally be his thoughts too, I'm sure)
