Wow this thread moves fast! I honestly have no idea how I'll be able to keep up with it when school starts, not to mention the 3000 pages I've got to read :0

I cope by... reading the threads period by period... "WC 2012" "SC 2015" XD accompanied by a heaping stack of Yuzu videos from the same time period on the side... I think I'm halfway through? XD
 
How long has it taken?

weekends for a couple months? I caught up with a lot during winter break. I was mostly anxious to find all the fancams/media asap because a lot of them are taken down after a while -w- a lot of the 2014's were gone by the time I got to them. Gotta get to them quickkk. Ganbatte!:hap10:

Oh no! I was reading the first few pages and loads of the media links were taken down :( but I'm going to carry on!

If you all want links first there's this extra thread that was created when it started to become hard to follow this one so he became the first skater here to have two threads. The posters on this are absolutely life saviours. There was some time at my vacation that I wanted to post there to easy other people's work but I didn't know if I would interupt the page count and annoy anyone so I didn't. Shout out to Pamigena. :thank:

The first post though, "The previous topic of Hanyu is the most active topic with more than 300 pages (...)" LMFAO, what a time.

I often watch old skating videos too and stumbled across this gem by Brian, I had no idea he did this, and now I want Yuzuru to skate an SP to Somewhere in Time (yes, I know it's been done by others like Yuna, don't care). It'd be kind of neat too, considering. :agree2:

but seriously though, awesome video

This is top canadian with the sweater but it needs a jazzy/cheeky music to evolve into ultimate canadian.

Ahh.... Figures. How glad I am that I did not live through those days :biggrin:
However this kind of videos are great for those who want to now more about steps and turns and distinguishing them :agree2:

oh that is by no means my private playground :biggrin: of course you can always post whatever you want there. I just started doing these summary posts during (the TOI-boy show) Together On Ice when the thread got flooded with links and nobody could find anything anymore. And then this kind of continued. But everyone's welcome to join in if they want. If anyone wants to help doing these summary posts, I think it would just help to coordinate a bit, because it would be a waste of time and effort if several people work on the same posts at the same time. Some kind of "page schedule" always seemed useful when more than one person does these summaries. But if anybody wants to chip in, just PM me and we can figure something out :)

I'm definitely going to ask for some volunteers during Worlds :dbana: It's hard enough to keep up with this thread when you're at home (during the GPF we added like 70 pages to this thread) so there's no way I can do this while I'm in Helsinki.

and from that, youtube recommended.... this
Borser must have been close to 50 by then... and backflip! :o :o :o
 
If you want to see some beautiful single axels by Brian, watch the 1984 olympic free program, or world's. Great height and distance with arm over the head. I am convinced that is where David got the idea for yuzu. Yes, it is done by others, but Brian often did it.

Here is a question since it is still quiet with news: What new moves would people like to see Yuzu learn to put in a new program for the future? This year we have single axel, new camel into sit final spin in Hope/Legacy.... what about flying sit spin, split jumps etc...? Any move from the past anyone thinks he would do well?

Moves I think he can do well or moves I would love to see him do well? :biggrin:
- a spiral sequence for ChSq as a change of hydroblade/ina bauer combo, at least arabesque and a fan spiral. I think he will do pretty well, not sure about how much he can extend though. Or do it just for ex lol. But I am guessing he is not so fond of doing spiral or not so stellar at it? Otherwise we would have seen it from him?
- twizzle-3A-twizzle would be cool and uniquely him
- any other crazy transition he can think of. Love the lunge-illusion entry into the sit spin this year. What's next Yuzuru? :biggrin:

I saw him did split jump once (it was on a finale of something I forget), it was not so pretty so not that lol.
 
Yes, I love the twizzles 3A twizzles combination...

I was thinking more along the lines of skills, rather than transitions. Shoma brought back the cantilever, Yuzu brought back the open single axel... I think I would love a flying change sit spin... few men do them, or at least not well enough for me to notice...they usually do death drops.

For some reason I don't think flying sit spin as easy to the eye like death drop.
I would like to see Yuzuru do illusion spin if he can.

Didn't Yuzuru used to do a flying sit spin when he was younger? I am more of a death drop person though :biggrin: Oh, charlotte spiral for me too, sasha cohen style, haha :hap10:
 
He wears it in practice sometimes and I don't think there's been confirmation on what it is exactly but its likely a sports monitor of some kind. For heart rates, breathing, etc.
aaah, I expect something like that, but sometimes i become paranoid lol

I found the comparison between Yuzu's and Brian's single axel https://twitter.com/vertigo06/status/817195905237458945
I personally want to see him doing spiral again, or how about layback spin?
