I am hoping there will be a side-by-side comparison video of sort coming out soon by one of the many talented fans...since I am quite dumb and don't really know what ya'll talking about. :) Or it could be that I haven't had the original version etched into my brain?

Me too! I hope it will be made soon!

Come back from the practice session just now. It was a blast. What is this guy? When he skates, the aura around him can not be explained. He is focused, cool, composed, and so charismatic. No matter how cute and humble he seems outside the rink. On the ice, he is the king and he truely believes that he is.

Thank you for sharing your precious experience!:love:

Thank you so much :dance: We fans are sure but sill amazing to hear someone's impression about him.

Thank you for sharing your experience! So glad to know he is doing so well!

He is a Masterpiece (gem, treasure). Thank you for sharing your experience. I love when someone describes him as they saw him live, cause it is creating kind of a completely different image of him in comparison to the videos.

Thank you everyone for the updates. :cheer:

Ganbatte Yuzu! Even if i'm not gonna see the live feed, i'll be there cheering very hard :cheer2::cheer2: from behind of my work desk.

At first when I saw everyone's reaction to the stsq, all I could think of going into this video was, "Hmmm, it can't be that bad." However, after spending a long time searching for the practice video (thanks, Sony Music) and being able to finally watch it, I must agree with the majority of you here. What I liked about the last stsq was how it was approached with aggressiveness and dominance. I think if he was to put more power into some of those movements it might just work, but now it's too mild for such a demanding music. Also, what's up with the camera work? Like just stop zooming in! Cameraman be zooming in like he fangirling.

I partially agree regarding the stsq as it does seem like he is not in precise control upon them. At times it seems a bit much, though i'd like to see the whole program first. I think a few of the new should be taken out and the rest polished to the brilliance that Yuzu polishes them.

Regarding the camera- ITA. It is like an amateur is filming. I hate it when they cut the stsq by zooming in too much.

Gambatte Yuzu....all the best :cheer:

Thank you Alia! Love the vid of Yuzu with Pooh.

Brian: "ohh, heeyy, yeh, yeh sorry too concentrated on the ice.... soo Yuzu got everything you need??''
Pooh:"here we go again.. no one pays attention to me.... no worries, no worries, i'll think of something for kiss&cry, there you won't take your eyes off of me'':p

Do we know if cameramen at events like these usually have experience with figure skating (ex ISU cameramen) or just employed by the arena? I feel like yes I do think "gosh where are you focusing!" at times but then maybe I need to be more lenient if this is not their usual job and they are trying the best they can.

Season opens and we get raining parade of news and pictures of him! Love it! Thanks everyone for your input regarding stsq. :) I imagine this thread will explode by the same time tomorrow...and the day after...then we can start guessing about his EX. :biggrin:

For now I'll take back what I said because that camerawork probably didn't do any justice to Yuzuru, let alone to the other skaters. Onto a more positive topic, good luck Yuzuru :cheer:
 
HOLY F!! I hope someone tells this person to cool his/her head. Bodyguards on alert!

Don't worry, Even if they find him at the hotel and the bodyguards are not there, all the employees will jump to help. I am working at a large hotel at the moment and we had some movie stars and famous singers staying with us. As staff we are obliged to make sure the guest feels secure so if we see that he/she is approached by fans we jump in to make sure that they leave them alone. As well we call security and the guest is escorted to the room through back of the house, thus no one knows which room they're in.
 
Thanks for sharing stuff guys!!
That short clip of Yuzu delivering the 'abandoned' Pooh :laugh: to Brian is so cute it looks like he's screaming 'HOW could you leave this baby?? feel the attack!'

I noticed while they obviously changed some parts in the stsq, half of the original parts were still there.. the most apparent changed (the one missing) was the three backward glide steps. If anything, it seems to be fuller now and more complicated, which ofc is the reason they tweaked it, to get those levels. I also think he seems to be still adjusting and I think we'll be able to judge at the competition. I understand why most of you guys feel the loss of the original version but as some of you guys said, the original actually did seem a little 'empty' (from the more technical pov) even though it fits with the calmness (for the lack of better term) vibe of the music part better (which had to be sacrificed-ish to up the level).

Anyway he did so well with the jumps especially those trippy quad toe I'm so glad!! He seems to be able to get the right timing and speed for those jumps, which is relieving.
And did you guys see all those eyes on him pretty much the whole time? haha I mean not only the audience but also some skaters and the staff/crew in the rink side.
Also, right before the chsq (that he decided to not do) he turned his head to Brian (who acknowledged him and clapped for him) and smiled at him like saying hehe I'm not gonna do it but I did well until now right? :biggrin: I just thought it's cute!

Overall he seems pretty comfortable with everything so that's a good sign. Let's hope he can hold it all together well until the competition and wish for the best! :cheer:

Hahaha. I noticed Adam (and maybe Raf?) sneaking a glance when Yuzuru was doing his ina bauer. Btw I think his ina bauers are always amazing and this one is no exception.
