Happy Birthday Javi!! hope he is having an awesome day

Happy birthday to this wondrous Spaniard! May he give us many more moments of joy to remember for years to come during next season, on top of all the treasures he has already given to the skating world!

Javier to be honored by Madrid regional goverment´s gold medal:

It's wonderful to see the unwavering support from his home country, regardless of any actual results! I'm sure he will be in Madrid to receive this honor, so I wonder if we will see Javi open a Real Madrid match this year as well. They have a home game on April 29th, which seems like perfect timing.

Happy birthday to Javier! He truly brings a special brand of humble charisma and down-to-Earth charm to the men's field, but at the same time is such a point of pride and adoration as a trailblazer in Spanish skating! I hope that this next year in particular is a great one for him.

In (late) honor of Javi's birthday, I've translated the Spanish commentary of his SP. They were of course very happy for him :yes:

It was cool to see so many brírthday wishes for him in the media yesterday - I cannot remember that there would have that many last year...

RTVE.es did a little vid on the occasion: https://twitter.com/rtvees/status/853167530575376384
And from AS pictures of Javi from the tiny skater boy from Madrid to a double world champion: http://masdeporte.as.com/masdeporte...6621_295581.html#1490906621_295581_1490982803

So, as expected, Javi was invited to the WTT Gala (according to the competition thread).
He will have to wait a bit more to head back home and rest. I guess he'll have a couple of weeks after this one before having to head back to Japan for FaOI.

Have you guys seen newest Shibs vlog? You cannot not love Javi

I loved how Alex gave a special promo to Javi's appearance by posting about asking for Javi's permission.

 

[beki]

So I heard Javi was invited to WTT gala, but is he actually there in Japan for it?

Perhaps not yet, but I'm guessing he will. I don't think his invitation would have been revealed had he turned it down

 

[pexcornel]

Javier will be present at the Gala, per speaker's announcement at the Victory ceremony.

 

[tzazu]

According to this, Javi will have two performances as a guest performer in WTT Gala!!!:luv17:

Javi's EX #1 Danny boy
Any guesses on #2? I'm betting on Touch of Evil

Edit: Well I couldn't be further away from the truth
Javi's EX #2: Bull fighter

I feel so lucky I saw Touch of Evil in Helsinki. It's just so different than anything else I've seen and I can't imagine anyone else pulling it off.
