Shoma Uno

Shoma's new FS is Turandot! Looks like he wants to debut with a bang

Thanks for the update ionap. I think he has the presence on the ice to "carry" that music. I hope it will be as auspicious for him as it was for Shizuka. Now anxiously waiting to see the video.

His costume, i wish there was better picture but at least its amusing

really looking forward to seeing it at actual comps! Go Shoma!

ETA. I ALWAYS wonder why J-media tend to post photos of skaters while jumping... or on falls...

Turandot is probably the warhorse I hate the most... But who cares. It's Shoma. I belive he can pull off a great performance with it, even thought I'm not if this is the best music for him.

But after all, he even said he wanted to do a warhorse, and it's not Carmen or POTO, so stay determined! :agree:

I like the costume. :thumbsup:

Link to icenetwork article (http://www.icenetwork.com/news/2015/06/12/130204078/japanese-stars-debut-programs-at-dreams-on-ice). Per Shoma, he wanted something different and his coach decided on the music. I guess he meant different as to him.

So no deep V but we get a deep U?? Just kidding, I think the music/costume suits him well and good for his senior debut.

Just here to say that I like the costume and I dig the deep U (unlike deep V). I actually do enjoy warhorses so I'm super curious how Shoma will deal with Turandot.

If a warhorse, I am glad it is Turandot. Less obvious than R&J, Carmen, POTO etc. and I do like the music. Hope the cut is good. There are some lovely changes in 'style' of music, depending on the cut, that could be interesting to see.

I really like the colour of the costume, but want to see that weird neck ornamentation better to judge. It looks like curtain cord from the pics I have seen.

Perfect sum up
I'm fine with Turandot, I'll just wait to see the whole thing, he may bring something interesting.
For the costume, I'm not fond of this kind of velvet but it looks okay.

Guys, GS will be taking over ownership of Shoma's OP. After we have done it, you will need to change your bookmark for it, so keep an eye on the OP, and update when it belongs to GS Forum Staff rather than sky_fly.
