Yuzuru Hanyu: 2016-17 Season

[Henni147]

I'm p sure Yuzu will add 4lz for next season, this is my Dream layout

4Lz 4S 3F // 4S3T 4L 3A2T 4T1L3S 3A

no repeat 4T to protect the left foot
place the 4L in the 2nd half for the 10% bonus

Just looked at the layout once again. That poor 3F looks so discriminated in comparison to all the other hardcore jumping passes

It gets a royal treatment in terms of choreography and transitions though. It's usually the most decorated jump of the lot.

The Italian commentators are certainly the most spirited in praise of Yuzu.

They're more knowledgeable and more understanding of skating, and fairer than Japanese news in which many people have no true understanding of skating just talk blah blah.

I find that few mainstream news outlets will publish the kind of detailed and in-depth figure skating analysis that intense fans like us want. They need to go for big headlines, drama and excitement.
But Japan has some very good commentators, all of them former skaters who do a good job in analysis. Nobunari Oda is my favorite. Very good at explaining jumps, as well as being supportive and positive about everyone. -Not to mention entertaining to watch. His comments about Yuzu are so enthusiastic.

Nobunari Oda is one exception. Other Japanese media I have watched are kind of lacking. They can be very misleading. Many Japanese people know Yuzuru. But most of them don't know how good he is. They can be shocked when told that he has the best skills in the current field. And that his technique is so great. I think there is some issue with Japanese mainstream media reports about Figure skating. They feed on stars and make dramas (for the lies and photoshopped photos they made) but do not give many deep analysis to explain why their best skater is the best in the world.

Well, just 17cm seperate Yuzuru from a quad axel - his hair length as he says. I think professor Hanyu won't retire from competitive skating until he manages to demonstrate a perfect 4A.

He looks like he has't aged a day since he first moved to Cricket. So...new programs?
Assuming at least one of his programs is a warhorse, which one would you like? -Or guess, he's going to use?
Or, we could do the opposite, anything but...
For me: Anything but a Tango. -Please.

Just pure guess but I think he would go for something dramatic for both programs; lots of ebb and flow in the music and also something that is easy for people(himself included) to interpret and relate to.

Does this mean no ice show? Or has he gone back and forth in the past?

Well he still has a couple of weeks before FaOI (if he goes). And if he doesn't do FaOI but decides to do DOI he has even more time

Well, we always see thousands of fantastic Japanese fans in international events but in a personal close contact I saw sth different. A Japanese undergrad student is supposed to join our group. To make her comfortable I showed her my laptop desktop which is gutsy Yuzuru after finishing his free skate in Helsinki. She thought a bit and said "4 years ago that I was leaving Japan he was a bit popular. Do people still know him? Is he as good as Russians?" Me :shocked:

He always ranks high in the 'favorite athlete' polls in Japan, and he's very high-profile, but it doesn't mean that everyone is going to know him, or care about figure skating, or sports in general. I was showing my sketchbook to some university students one day, and one of the pages had Yuzu on it, they all instantly knew who it was, some were also fans, some just knew his face.

It depends I guess. :scratch3:

Hi! The thread was getting very long and causing technical difficulties to the site, and the search engine. So it needed to be split.

The pictures of Marin and Wilson in Canada reminds me of Yuzuru was working with Wilson in the Olympic season.
I'm feeling like Yuzuru will work with him again along with warhorse in this season...but if he doesn't do any show, we might wait and see until summer

I would really like to see him at least one show. Fantasy on Ice with Evgenia.
