Shoma Uno

[Vilya]

A beautiful program and a huge mental victory on pulling off the 4T3T after the popped 4F! Good job!!

I was so happy to finally see Uno live!!! and, for the moment, he surpassed Chen

So happy that you could see him, too. He was great on the home screen. Can imagine he's beautiful in person.

LOL. Just got an email from a friend with this blurry photo. Yes, we're really here, and in the front row no less. That's Coyote Chris in the red cap and me to the right...Just a few more hours. I'm so nervous you'd think I'm going to skate!!!!!

Haha. Every time someone skated by your seats, I looked for you both. So glad you're seeing the Prince and his two beautiful new programs live.

Shoma skated so beautiful. Looking forward to see him tomorrow. Go Shoma!

FINALLY!!! Your wish come true!

Rollerblade -- no photos or videos any more. So many people come with fabulous, professional level cameras, and here's me with my crummy, grainy photos. Not worth the effort. I'd rather sit and stare at you-know-who!!!!

I am so happy and really hoping I can make men’s practice today with my Covid travel test. It has to be tight, but I will do my best to be here. Oh, gosh, it’s so good to finally see skating live.

I think I've played the above video clip of it 50 times! Love it! And I love that he doesn't rush into the second jump which can be the tendency when nerves are high and the adrenaline is flowing. He takes a split second to steady himself and then does the second jump. The audience went crazy!

Catching up on the men's short...and OH MY GOSH, I LOVE his short! Beautiful, beautiful interpretation and skating, Shoma! And that is one of my all-time favorite figure skating costumes, by any skater.

How to say
A beautiful program, a beautiful costume, and a beautiful man

Come on Shoma! You’re gonna make it tonight I can sense it

 

[16Olympics]

Magnificent. Well done. Sooooooooo happy for him.
Stepan chewing him out for not doing the triple toe.

Bravo!

Congrats on the silver, Shoma! You fought for it and did well!

 

[demarinis5]

Congrats Shomajesty for winning the Silver. It was a fight but you did it!

 

[jerrymouse333]

Congratulations Shoma.

 

[Arriba627]

Congratulations to silver medalist, the one and only Shoma Uno!!!!!!! Crazy fire!!!!

 

[Arriba627]

^^^Happy to see above that Sho continues his tradition of holding his medal backwards.

Wow, that is one BIIIIIIIGGGG hug!

 

[lariko]

wow, my section had a lot of Shoma’s fans, and we collectively screamed ourselves raw as he was saving landing after landing! Absolutely beautiful to watch otherwise, and I don’t find this rearrangement of Bolero annoying, but I think it’s not all Bolero? Anyway, hugs, everyone, I am about dead with exhaustion after 14 hours of rollercoaster emotions. Thankfully it’s only half a day of competition tomorrow and then a gala where I hope to see Shoma again!

Congrats for the silver, Shoma!

He fought for many jumps today but him trying 5 quads with no pops, no falls this early in the season is a good sign. I think the pressure of competing internationally after so long was huge.
I’m curious to hear what were his thoughts, maybe we’ll get a nowvoice.

Was also there in Vegas. The sheer amount of FIGHT Shoma put out to land the jumps was insane! Also very grateful to have finally seen Shoma cantilever in person (as his 2018-19 programs had none). Did he smile at any point during the victory lap? Was very close to the victory ceremony, will have to review the photos, but they were probably awesome...
