Sota Yamamoto

Wishing Sota a speedy recovery from whatever is troubling him
My mind involuntarily keeps going back to the summer of 10 years ago. Sota was supposed to compete in a summer cup, which was Iizuka Cup back then, and his WD turned out to be his renewed stress fracture. I was downloading a gifted article several months back, and his descriptions of the despair he felt in the latter half of that year still echoes in my mind. I am praying it's just an abundance of caution regarding his overloaded hamstring this time.
And thanks for keeping us informed, @Noxia . It's much appreciated!

They delete the entry list earlier this morning.. So maybe there was something wrong in the application part? Still have hope

If it turns out the he's not doing Summer Cup after all, I'm hoping it's because the trauma from last season was enough for him to be extra careful with injuries now

Poor SotaSomething wrong with the entry list. He must be as confused as us.
Anyway they add Sota on the list again!

Glad the list is sorted, although I still hope he understands he doesn't need to push himself at this stage! I'd be happy with a WD from Summer Cup if that means he gets to be 100% ready for the new season.

It takes place on August 22, and all attendees will receive clear files with Sota&Kazuki images. Lucky people!
Kosho Oshima and Sena Miyake are also scheduled to skate there.

'Thriller', perhaps?
