Yuzuru Hanyu: 2015-16 Season

The third article on Phil Hersh's new website has nice words from Jason Brown re Hanyu:

Brown on skating rival Hanyu: "He is changing the sport"

Thanks for sharing. How characteristic of Jason to be so gracious. Speaking of Jason, I wish him well in his recovery from his back problems. I will miss him and his beautiful, charismatic skating terribly in the meantime. Same with Josh Farris. The specter of injury really hangs over every skater, and we fans can only hope and pray for the good health of them all.

Great article, I hope Jason recovers well and comes back strong! I especially liked this quote:

“It is motivating,” Brown said. “When one person jumps ahead, everyone is working harder, everyone is trying to take more risks. It’s just another way to continue to bring our sport to new heights. I think it’s awesome. I definitely don’t look at it as discouraging or upsetting. I think it’s only positive."

I like how positive this article is, from Jason praising Yuzuru to him saying what Yuzu has done brought new heights to the sport ―it's all positivity here!

Good job Yuzu for denying and stopping this rumor before it gets bigger. Hope Yuzu, the girl and all the fans can move on from this. It is not worth Yuzu or our energy to think about this anymore. He now can put this behind him and focus his energy on the bids to win back worlds title...we would focus on cheering him on

Totally agree. :thumbsup:

Hope Jason and Joshua speedy recovery. It’s always painful for me to hear about information of skaters injuries.

Lol, grocery stores literally have a "Yuzu Corner" Citrus Yuzu food snacks/drinks + Ghana + Xylitol + Yuzuru clear folders. Its beautiful

And the overdose of Yuzuru magazines in the bookstore I love that random Julia Lipnitskaya mag

How I wish I could get a hold of those clear folders in the states. If only the Japanese markets around me had them
Hehe the clumped together Hanyu stuff makes it easy to get people to buy everything Hanyu when they are there

There are ways to get them if you're willing to pay extra, they occasionally show up on ebay and there are quite a few posted on yahoo japan auctions. If you use a deputy service you can bid on these items and they charge you a fee for the transaction and the cost of shipping. With the relatively good USD to JPY exchange rate it it makes it a little easier, I think I got all 6 of the last set for around $6-7 each after shipping and transaction fee (still pricey for a clear file but worth it!).
