I was sitting next to the 77 year old Aussie fan too, she made me crack up so much with all her comments (called Yuzu a cutie pie).
Finally got a chance to upload my videos now that I'm in hotel wifi. Enjoy.

Why is ISU not streaming it? :sad21: The ISU stream has been the most user-friendly for me and it works really well even on my phone(no lags, clear stream). I hope someone will livestream it on youtube. I don't trust other livestreams due to lagging.
I just don't get why the ISU wouldn't stream the MOST IMPORTANT competition of the season :noshake:

My heart wants Yuzu, Javi, Shoma but I would accept this.
Yes, but isn't that usually in countries were there is a broadcasting company to sell the rights to? My country has none of those and I've been able to watch Euros and 4 CC this season in their stream...
oh well

Was there an ISU stream for previous worlds available? I'm in the US so everything is always geo-blocked for me and I never bother to check the ISU links.
Same. No hard feelings but I don't really want Nathan on the podium. At this rate, he'll just keep thinking that as Long as I have many quads and do them relatively fine, I'll be at the top. I really dislike this, I feel like figure skating will go down hill if everyone keeps focusing on jumps :/

I'm in the same boat, there is no one broadcasting FS here, so i don't think it's a righs issue... Ugh, i don't get it, i've seen mny people say that fs is a dying sport and they're certainly not making it easier to get more fans!
I'm not sure because my country just got the ISU stream this season (no idea who had the rights for no reason at all since they never broadcasted a thing anyway), IIRC. But the 2016 Worlds TV and Stream thread says there was.
But well, I haven't had the time to comment on Yuzu's practice session! I'm on the camp that says he will stick to the layout he's been attempting all season. He wants to win, but there is no point in adding even more quads when 1) he would lose his high GOE 3As, and 2) he still hasn't skated a clean program, and adding even more difficulty when he still hasn't been able to fulfill the original layout has the potential to backfire big time. However, given the IB-3A and 4T-Lo-3S attempts, I guess he has a backup plan different from 4 CC to make up the most amount of points (but hopefully he won't have to make use of it!)
On a cheerful note, it made me so happy to see both Tracy AND Brian watching him. An extra pair of eyes (specially from his own coaches) can't hurt :yes:
Do we know at what time will the following men's practice begin? Do you think Yuzu will be there or will he attend evening practice today?
Ok the anxiety is starting to kick in now

I'd love to see him wear his hair back from his face more often. So handsome!!

Yes, there was. I live in a non geoblocked country and it has been really useful since no one is broadcasting any figure skating competition here. I have been using the ISU stream for all gps, gpf and championships since post Sochi because it really works great (no commentary, no lags, crystal clear stream). I remembered they even streamed the 2017 world junior champs earlier this month so I don't know why all of a sudden they won't be streaming WC.
And I'm thinking they might also not stream WTT which I think might make it much harder to look for livestream.

I have been away from the thread for a bit and I'm so behind, but I'm leaving for Helsinki tomorrow 
Did all you lovely Yuzu fans make plans for a group photo? Also, I have an extra ice level 1 ticket for the mens SP and I'd be happy to email it to anyone who can use it, free of charge.
Edited to add: ticket has been gifted

I'll be so sad about having to watch with commentary though. I'm like AnyaFei >"< the ISU stream just works so much better for me even though I have to VPN into it
