If not today, then I guess the same as Rippon, they'll leave tomorrow but that leaves Yuzuru with a day to adjust. Brian is going to be so knackered by the time he's in France, jumping around like that. And yes, I guess he must have. :scratch2:

I don't know hahaha, many Canadians are flying now, like Kaetlyn Osmond and Eric Radford. I saw them tweeting about it just a few hours ago. If Yuzuru is in Japan there will be media all over him when departing. I saw articles about Satoko and Marin departing to France. If Yuzuru is in Canada, we would likely only hear about him when he arrive. Yuzuru might be more accustomed to jet lag but I am not sure Cha Jun Hwan is, I don't think Brian would risk arriving so close to OP, especially considering junior men practice is early in the Wednesday morning. It is almost Tuesday in France now, they have to be flying today the latest. From Toronto to Marseille is about 10-11 hr flight, so if they fly today we should hear about them in couple of hours :think:

ETA: Saw Rippon's twitter, seems like he is already in France?

Me neither and I've seen a lot of grumbling too so I wonder how long before they change it again.

I think it's fairer than the-highest-ranked-skating-later system, although of course, for me as a viewer it's sometimes a problem, especially when bloody Eurosport decides to skip a few first skaters.
 
I really wish Yuzuru will win worlds this year, and hopefully either next year and/or 2019 (preferably both :laugh:). Tired of people talking about how he only has 1 world title the way they talked about Yuna only having 1 world title after Miki beat her in 2012...

Lol relax. Viktor Petrenko and John Curry only have 1 world title. Legends will stay legends. :cool: :rock:

I really like this song: C.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h. By One Ok Rock.

He speaks of friendship, of dreams, of building his own history and of the richness of our memories. Yuzu continues to dream and fulfill her dreams. He conquers solid friendships and thousands of fans around the world, while building his incredible story. Surely he has many precious memories to remember. He left his house, but he always comes back. Sendai and the whole of Japan wait for him.Your true friends will always be with him. We'll always be with him.
I saw Taka touch the ground in this video and I remembered Yuzu touching the ice rink.

Well he sure arrived quickly :laugh: 20 hours ago it was leaving for France tomorrow. It's probably the time difference again taking its toll.

Ah! If the many Canadians are flying now then it's possible they're flying together (providing he's in Canada), it's happened before. Well that means they'll be in France on Tuesday, early morning. Japanese media will let us know I am sure, once he arrives, they do follow him quite closely. I can't believe how time flew since Autumn Classic and we're already at GPF and Nats soon to come.
 
I guess will be receiving another gift from Yuzuru :luv17: (it must be the other way around actually :laugh:) since his birthday is only a day before GPF ;)
 
Haha I'm dyinngggg...trying to buy tickets to the men's free skate but since the site is in Europe my credit cards got locked out and the service centers are closed until morning. What am I supposed to do with no credit cards for the next 8 hours?!?! I could be stranded somewhere with no form of paying for anything... (good thing I'm not). I mean, they could've asked for my social security or something as an identity check...

Omg I so hope that tomorrow the seats closer to the rink aren't taken.. :drama: when I was doing the "automatic seat selection" thing (seriously, stupidest thing ever), they kept giving me seats that are in row ~20...and finally when I refreshed it, I saw row 7 and was like :yes2: but then...can't buy them...:furious:

Just trying to be closer to Yuzu :love: :luv17: jk
 
I notice that Yuzu always carries a bottle of yellowish drink with him in competitions. I read in an unauthentic source that he used to drink gold water when he was in primary school to increase flexibility, but I am dubious. Is that what he is drinking?

Probably some sort of vitamin/sports mix?

I asked that few weeks ago and got this answer

He mixes amino vital powder in his water. It's amino acids that suppose to help with hydration, fatigue/stamina, etc. Almost everything that I've seen him eating and drinking before/during/after his time on the ice is amino vital. No one can say he's not diligent :laugh:

It is really my wish, too.
Yuna lost to Miki in 2011 but yes, after she won gold she got silvers in 2010, 2011. Same for Yuzu, 3 worlds medals in this order. This means, his next medal will be a gold again :party:

I want him to be the world champion for 2017 and if he will participate in 2018 WC too (I wish he does) but 2019 is kinda impossible because it is said that he will retire after Pyeongchang olympics though he said that this is not final

According to this tweet, Kansai team (Satoko, Marin, Rika K) has arrived in Marseille alongside Kobayashi-san and media. Mentioned something about Hanyu but I can't Japanese lol.
