Mura's already competed this season at Ondrej Nepela and lost to Tomas Verner. He seems to be in the same boat as Dai and Kozuka so far in the season.
Tomas Verner skated so well at that event though; the best he's been since winning the European Championships in 2008. His stamina and jump consistency has improved tenfold. Speaking of Verner, I hope the positive momentum continues for him. He is such a terrific skater! GO TOMAS!
