Yuzuru Hanyu: 2014-15 Season

So, I got tickets to the Men and Ladies Short Program for the WTT! Hooray. I'll try to remember everything so I can give a report.
(actually, it was my sister who got them. I have no idea how she did it.)

P.S. for those of you living in Japan, the ticket prices at various ticket re-sellers are dropping right now due to people needing to get rid of the tickets before it is too late to sell them. You may get lucky too.

You are so lucky!
 
Thanks so much! I listened to the whole thing!

Lol I love how Javi said, "We can't forget about Nam!" Though actually this is Nam's 2ND senior worlds appearance. Last year he got 12th.

Isn't this the first season of senior competition for nam??? Sorry I'm so outdated.....
 
Actually I love his costumes too!(though my parents utterly disagree with me on this ) And aside from the 10/11 lp costume, I really can't get through the vertigo one too!!! That's really fun to look at, but not nice for yuzu to wear despite his beautiful body line

Over here weird costumes is seen as an integral part of figure skating. :laugh: My Mom is always harping about what she likes and dislikes about costumes and she noticed that Yuzuru "goes into the girl teritory" with his but she didn't say it like a bad thing. But then my Mom is a person who loved Florent Amodio's costume, thought Javi's vest needed glitter in order to be remotely interesting, and would have put Brezina in burgundy pants.

OMG the Vertigo costume. :laugh2: I'm assuming you're talking about the blue tank top over the white clingy shirt one? It's so confusing, like a little boy trying to look like a porn star but unable to give up his favorite blue color and rhinestones. Still very Yuzu but in a slightly different way. :laugh:

Yes, I'm referring to the white clingy shirt one! That's too "interesting" to look at, sorry, I wasn't able to watch the program properly with that costume...... :laugh2:

The funniest thing my parents said about Yuzu was that they thought he was a female at first.... LOLS!!!! (Since they only saw me watching yuzu from my laptop --> i didn't use full screen, so they're basically seeing yuzu from a very small screen, so all they could judge from was his costumes.... LOLS still....):laugh:
 
Newest blog entry about Yuzu and his little rituals that he does all the time when he skates. There may be more (off camera and during backstage warmups), but these are the ones that I like the best.

Cool. So you are a skater? Do you compete? I just think it's interesting to know what other skaters think about Yuzuru's skating. My perception of him is really just based on observation as a spectator. I think most of us posting in this thread are non-skaters.

Hi gsyzf. Yes i used to be a competitive skater, when i was younger. I got up to senior silver level. I dont know if skate canada has these levels anymore (prelim, junior bronze, senior bronze, junior silver, senior silver, then gold level).

Now, i just enjoy watching competitive skating, and only skate for fun and of course, Yuzu is my favorite...

Once again, great post and observations! I never even knew Yuzuru liked to massage his own cheeks to release tension, lol. :laugh: It's cool that you were a competitive skater before! The only relation I have to skating is that my brother used to play hockey (his team won the regional gold trophy, I don't know exactly what it's called) and nowadays we just skate for fun during winter.
