Yuzuru Hanyu: 2014-15 Season

[Meoima]

Yuzu was not invited in London Words.
he skated injured to White Legend EX in Nice in 2012.

There is no evidence saying he was not invited. But it was so widely known he was injured badly at WC 2013.

I guess, from Japanese people’s point of view, he is a bit different from the standard or norm of being a hansome.
although many fans call him Katsukoii which means “cool” “good-looking” “handsome” “smart” “fashionable” etc…

Thank you for your explanation!

great news about shows being aired, and even greater that FaOI showing will be from 2 different shows
i am so happy to see CJH and yuzuru next to eachother, love both of them
here is the video of " best quad toeloop jumps " involving 6 skaters (dont know how accurate it is though, i am sure there are others as well like Javier ) , watching the video i think Yuzuru's 4T is the best, shortest entry, great air position, soft landing (esp this year he is like feather (when he landed haha) ) and great flow , there is also link to a poll for us

there's no evidence Yuzu was invited but WD because he was injured, he was simply not invited. He skated badly injured in Nice , as I wrote.

You can't just say he was not invited because you have no evidence saying that. Before the gala was confirmed, they of course might have asked all the skaters they wanted to invite, if skaters said NO, there is no need to add their name then wait for them to WD.

usually the skater justifies his WD. I think it's a question of education and respect too.

Yuzu of course did it at 2012 GPF.

Voted. My favourite one in the video is Yuzu's 4T at 2014 gpf sp. The most beautiful 4T I've ever seen is Yuzu's at 15 wtt sp
I didn't know Joubert was such a good jumper:shocked:

And no, Javier is not as good as these 6. The blogger says it's a compilation of the best and most consistent quad toe jumpers of all time. Javier is not consistent at all.

It is indeed his most beautiful 4T up to now and with great extension: http://33.media.tumblr.com/a24a232e634c659589c9e50c94f0d866/tumblr_nmwpu4U4Zy1tv8i85o1_250.gif

They called him a Terminator on Russian Eurosport for killing it with 3 quads in LP in his best years. He was spectacular.

Glad that he did not skate at the Worlds 2013 Gala and WTT 2013 or else he will further aggravate the injury.

More news regarding Yuzu's knee injury. It could possibly be worse that we thought.

It says that after he was sidelined for 10 days by influenza, on March 6, he started feeling the pain in his knee. Afterwards, he couldn't attend the practices at the rink for one whole week. He had to skate through his SP while on painkillers as he bears the responsibility of securing the spots for the Japanese Team at Sochi Olympics. He is expected to undergo thorough examination in Japan after Worlds.

It's only to be expected that he skiped Gala and WTT, either ligament injury or avulsion fracture requireds at east 4 weeks for recovering, in his case, since the injury of his ankle has become kinda chronic, plus ligament injury of his knee, I think he'll take time off more than 4 weeks.

he isnt consistent yes, but to his defense he didnt miss his 4T this season, last year wasnt bad either, and i think his 4T is better than the ones in the video

happy you're happy, this didn't change the fact he was not invited at Worlds Gala in Canada (despite he placed four), which was the question that started the conversation.

 

[Pika]

This compilatio of the best quads through the years shows the improvement of Yuzu's quad toe... He has always had a beautiful air position but he improved a lot the softness of the landing, quite impressive (especially at the gpf..) !

 

[Camillo]

Right, he wasn't invited, because the organizers already knew about his injuries.

 

[Marin]

Yes That's why he wasn't invited.

 

[giulia95]

have you got any evidence of your statement?

 

[alia jackson]

have you got any evidence of your statement?

In your opinion what is the reason he was not invited for Worlds 2013 Gala given that he was the Japanese National Champion and also place 4th at Worlds 2013?

 

[cruzceleste]

Boy, this thread... we are arguing weather he was or not invited to a Gala? Does it matter?

 

[alia jackson]

My apologies, not arguing just trying to find out whether there was any other reason

here is the video of " best quad toeloop jumps " involving 6 skaters.....there is also link to a poll for us

Only 25 people voted when you posted it, now 124 people voted....I'll be deadly honest, Yuzuru is the most popular skater of the moment (I think "I'll be deadly honest" will be used a lot next season hahaha)
