I'm up and ready for a bit of live viewing, too. I'm at friends the whole weekends, but they're all still asleep.

why? to gain llke 2-3 points??? I cannot imagine yuzuru not repeating his 3A.... so with already 4 quads, whatever ones he repeats, something must go.... either he will stop doing one quad altogether, or not repeat any of his quads, or he will have to ditch the 3a....

if he goes 5 quads, well,he will lose in pcs... already we see this tendency finally clicking in with the judges. there was more of a program with seimei and 3 quads, and higher scores for yuzu last year, than this year with 4 quads. just saying ... YMMV...

I'm pretty sure he wants 4lo, 4lz, 4S, 4T, 4S-3T, 3A-lo-3S, 3A-2T, 3F in some kind of order.

ok... well.. we will see if there is a program and how many of these he can land... Nathan was hot a couple times this season but Yuzu only landed his 4 quads once. When Yuzu misses, he pops... so it's quite risky for him... When Nathan misses, he falls... same with Shoma usually... so a 5 quad Yuzu for me, is too risky compared to the reward a very clean 3 quad Seimei gave him. just my opinion..... let's get back to pairs.. we have a full year ahead of us to discuss yuzu's ambitious layouts next year

The pairs SP was weird. The resulting order is the exact reverse of the current WTT standings. :scratch:

I love that they always play Taylor Swift at the skating events in Japan. Excited to see the Japanese pair's FS again. Thought it was really beautiful.

Haha, didn't take the cameras long to find Hanyu and Uno in the team Japan box. And the pink ribbon is back! ;-)

I don't really want him to feel like he has to do 5 quads. 4 different quads with 4Lz and two 3T combos would only have slightly lower BV and less risk than that 5 quad layout.

Did you try the CBC stream? It's working really well with Touch VPN set to Canada.
