Shoma Uno to change coaches

I am not surprised Shoma may be taking long time to decide, he can still practice at the rink of Chukyo Uni since he is a student of there and also a member of Toyota. I think he can even invite the specialists to there. Only 3 seasons until the next Olympics, focusing on the last two seasons with new team might be good for him rather than being in rush to find a coach this season, but just my opinion.

I think it is wise that he ponders about the matter carefully, but he needs to make the decision during this summer, IMO. In that way he will have two full seasons with the new coach before the important Olympic season. It makes time to adjust to new training fully, I´d assume.

I saw on twitter how many Japanese Shoma's fans already discussing and researching information about Novogorsk training base where Eteri is traditionally having her summer pre-season camp. Shoma gonna arrive there today-tomorrow.

To make it easier for Shoma fans I got this video link from a Russian friend (hi, Rapira). Here you can visualize the settings of the some small part of this base. Although this blog is mostly about volleyball team, which had their camp a month ago, but you can get the idea about some facilities, lobby, hotel, gym, food buffet and etc. Btw, Russia's national team has a main coach from Finland this season - Tuomas Sammulveo. So I guess it is pretty international there.

This girl from Philippine trains in Eteri's junior group sometimes. She is at summer-camp with Eteri's skaters now. She did this camp previous summer as well.

Shoma being Shoma. Hey, buddy, please never change!

Shoma is obviously great at finding 3 things out: diving into a new challenging environment, spotting a meat buffet and locating a good place to nap (by the power outlet, obv).

I laughed when I realised that. He has a mobile gamer's soul through and through. I hope Shoma brought the correct power plug (or adapter!) XD
