Yuzuru Hanyu: 2016-17 Season

[sweetwater]

A news clip from Fuji this morning about 3/27’s OP

Rough translation of his comment:
He said he is confident that he’s trained pretty well. Not just been doing good in practice but also prepared himself to be able to perform what he’s been doing in practice in competition. He was frustrated by the result of 4CC and what he regretted most was that he could not perform “his performance,” and he sees this competition as his revenge. He also said that he wants to brush up every element (not only jumps) to perform “his performance.”

Speaking of noodles....I found out soba noodles go amazingly well with Ponzu sauce (made with yuzu) mixed with a bit of wasabi.

I won't make any "YOU HAD YUZU FOR DINNER:eekn:" jokes...

 

[ralucutzagy]

Well, that's it for today, nighty night guys , my eyes refuses to stay open much longer so ... see you in the morning !!!

 

[YuzusHydroblade]

Ok, i was just trying to calm myself down and i realized something.
Yuzu still won the FS at 4CC, against a 5 quad program and without his darling partner 4S3T. I don't think we should worry about that...
right guys?

tbh i think if yuzu skates the sp clean hes pretty much sorted. even if he messes up the combo in the free, 4cc showed he can recover and claw back points from that mistake and win so...

Chen's 6 quad LP threw a shadow over our happiness jk

He's doing a 6-quad lp? LOL! Then let him do it, it's the only way he can win anyway (so his program is gonna be emptier- though it's gonna be an amazing feat).

In any case WORLDS is just a day away! I probably won't be able to watch it live but can't wait to see Yuzuru (and my other favorites) skate.

Yuzuru, kachi nasai.

Thar uncle usually has pretty good infos, he exactly "predicted" some news for couple of years :giveup:

Italian uncle probably with secondhand information and a bit of fanboyishness but...

Now I'm having a heart attack but at leat now I won't fall asleep during a night shift

but you know he's still gonna get rewarded for all those quads in his pcs because apparently actually getting the tes for your tech content isn't enough...gotta give him brownie points for transitions he doesn't have, performance when the skate is empty of any personality and interpretation when the program doesn't connect with the music at all...so he'll be getting high 8's maybe 9s in those areas anyway because why not.
I don't have anything against Nathan but I hate his free program...

I'm lucky! The men's SP starts right on time for me to come home for work (though sadly it runs to midnight so I am going to be a grump on Friday morning)

Well that is the thing though. He even received a 10 the previous competition which is err... quite appalling :disapp: I do like Nathan's SP but like you I also don't like that jumping LP (and even more so now with 6 quads- when he takes time to set up his jumps-I suppose he is in a hurry to be... known...)

Well looking forward to news of SP ahead before watching! Let's pray that Yuzuru and Javi's skate will remain on top.

 

[Yuzu Beloved Angel]

Thank you! Thank you all for the updates and reports. He's so beautiful ... His skating, for me, is fascinating and mesmerizing. I have not yet found the right words to describe what I feel when I see him skating. It is magical, exciting and scary at times when we are not sure what he intends to do. It's just Yuzuru being Yuzuru. He wants everything perfect and flawless. Today see that he is healthy and happy has brightened my day. It was the greatest gift I could get from him. Let him remain so.
I believe in the power of our subconscious, in the energy we can radiate to transform the environment around us, so I am sure that all this positive energy that we are casting on it will help you win and put the gold in your neck. That had made him very happy. Ganbatte Yuzu! We'll be on the ice rink with you. Ganbatte !!

 

[YuzusHydroblade]

I am REALLY sad because i don't know if i'll be able to watch it live! ISU just confirmed that they won't stream </3 i might be able to watch a live stream from swedish tv (if my black magic works) but for the FS i'm out of ideas right now...

 

[TerpsichoreFS]

Oh I wish I was there... I battled a long time with my reason over going to helsinki. I know I have my studies and stuff... but it doesn't even seem like it matters. I'm really despairing at not seeing Yuzuru live. Especially Notte Stellata. But then, I probably wouldn't be able to watch the competition with how anxious I am x)

M*rde Yuzuru, as we say in my country

His spiral is not very extended but it's very eye-pleasing for some reason :think:

I don't think he was going for an actual spiral per say, just working on extensions/strokes.

[guitarist]

I should really, really be doing homework. But who cares, this is my last semester of college and I have a bad case of senioritis, Yuzu pictures are far more interesting than my classes. I can't get over the video of him imitating Brian! So cute! And talking to Pooh! He's too much for me to handle
