There were some wonderful moments from the medal ceremony....i will write them up in my blog entry on the plane ride home...but one of them was Yuzu....after skating to center ice and bowing...he went to the podium, stopped, and instead of his usual jumping directly on it.....he took his right skate and tapped it to see if it was strong enough. Then he stepped onto it.

So cute and adorable!!
 
His performance looks great. I'm glad he skated well. I hope people (fans and non-fans) don't question his ability to skate a 3 quad program any more. It's a very challenging program, but it's managable as long as he becomes stronger as the season progresses.

Hi guys! Dropping by quick. I'm still catching up and haven't watched the free yet but here is another version, HD (who doesn't love HD right) and longer clip of Yuzu's free. https://youtu.be/L9aYC855Iqo

So happy for him and will be back to comment more after I watch it.

p.s. maybe that bedazzling gold pattern thingy will look even more mesmerizing in HD :laugh:

This is the best version so far. 8.29 and 720p HD. (Now if only there was a 1080p HD version...)
 
Guess he's no longer scared of skating too close to someone else during practice :eek: The clips from the IG account are amazing!

Looks like no trauma for our boy right there. I remember the practice videos that he had last season where he suddenly scurried away from Maxim (?).

This clip is on-line, I saw it pop up on a facebook page. It's very cute. :laugh: As well as the clip with the Nam comparing their heights and Yuzuru sort of pushing Nam's hair down.

A bit off-topic, but still noteworthy, IMHO: (at least for the current competition-hype): Eurosport have the Skate Canada SPs listed, and they will be aired LIVE. During the evening/ night in Europe, but definitely live. I expect the FSs to get a similar treatment. Yay for live Yuzuru Hanyu viewing!:cheer:

yeay! Omg so excited can't wait!
 
Look at that cheeky boy

He is still so happy even after all that he has accomplished. I saw that after the national anthem, he clapping to the audience thanking them, very appreciative boy.
Aaaaah! Now we have a cheeky onmyouji on ice! How cute and what a treat for us!
LOL Sean wanted to help Yuzuru off the podium like a proper gentleman to a lady... can't imagine if Yuzuru take the hands XD

Woah! I can't imagine too!
 
Yuzu's skating is from another planet. Even his falls are beautiful. I would suggest ISU to add one more technical element in the free skate: 4Yf = quadruple Yuzufall :laugh2: :bow:
 
IKR! :laugh2: Too bad or fortunately? OR he might have pretend he didn't noticed it to save some awkwardness :laugh2: Even Sean is unsure whether to proceed with his offer or not XD
I always see that the person on the top of the podium have a hard time getting up or down lols!
 
Just woke up and got to the LP+Kiss&Cry. Honestly, it went better than expected. A pity for the two 4T, but we'll see how he'll do next time. I agree on putting 4T-2T after 4S, but yeah I also doubt he'll makes the changes (except if Brian and Shae convince him to). Good thinking to change the layout and do 3Lo-1Lo-3S after that 3A stepout. Remins me of WTT where he changed too after doing 3T instead of 4T, and thus avoiding zayaking.
Now that he has done the program in competition, he'll get to work on the mistakes before SC. :)

And goodness, he was VERY chatty but happy in the K&C, lol! So cute! :laugh: To the point, he forgot to have Pooh waving... though it was funny that, OF COURSE, Papa Orser was holding Pooh, hehe.:biggrin:

lol, I wish Yuzu did accept, tho. :laugh2: But yeah, he really didn't notice the hand, and Sean noticed he didn't notice too. :p
 
Finally got a chance to watch Yuzu's FS and think he did a great job for his first competition this year. I don't know why but I felt worried about his 4T since after his surgery and Worlds last year, hoping the issues he had with it here are due to some of those transitions and that he'll nail them again.

I like the costume and I think it helps complete the program, the only thing is I think the loose sleeves sometimes hide or mask his beautiful movements in comparison to what we saw during his first practice in his training gear.
