Yuzuru Hanyu: 2018-2019

[Farnaz]

Speaking of costumes I had a nightmare last night. I saw him skating his SP in ACI wearing a green costume with green boot covers, a total frog, with see-through material on his belly button I woke up at 3:20am and couldn't sleep anymore. I'm so cranky and I blame no one but Johnny Weir.

Oh poor you!!!

I dreamed about Yuzuru too (our subconscious minds are obsessing along with the conscious ones...) but with mine he was in all white... skating what may have been Requiem, to music that sounded like a theramin. At twilight. On a rink of black ice.

Quite spooky for me, but I really didn't want to wake up.....

A guess everyone's seen the latest pop-up announcement about competition chat?
To summarize, we CAN talk about Yuzu's costumes as soon as we glimpse them.
We CAN talk about Yuzu's programs, skating etc.

Just not about anything in the competition that isn't about YUZU. (Other Skaters, skating orders, livestream links or play-by-plays for example) All that goes on the competition thread.

Thank you for your explanation, I am looking forward to having fun here

Oh yeeessss!!!! Thank god!!:hap57:

I can't wait!!!!... except I tried watching last year and it didn't go so well.

Everything went fine in the other events. And it was all good in the men's event as well...until Yuzu came on. Between the sudden influx of additional viewers and my slow internet connection things started buffering like crazy. Yuzu went up into his first jump ....and never came down until the program ended!!!

Thankfully everything gets posted to YT eventually.

The traffic with the 2 time Olympic Champion competing will be even worse...

That makes me - half way across the world - nervous, but Ican't blame anyone (except perhaps Yuzu for being so wonderful and so loved that so many folk want to virtually be there....

Best news of the week

Okay, we have discussed the streaming, commentary, Yuzu's program choices and choreos, his potential layouts, jumps, costumes...

But the key question still remains: will Yuzu stick to his legendary/infamous butt spin? :hopelessness:

 

[Katie J]

@ Henni, butt spin: You don't like that thing it seems. Me neither.

 

[Henni147]

@ Henni, butt spin: You don't like that thing it seems. Me neither.

Beat me guys, but this spin position looks so... non-ethereal :hopelessness::

I pray that he can substitute it with something else... that layback spin from FaOI was really nice

 

[DiamondDust]

Hmm... I don't mind the butt spin though. Just a few more days before ACI.:yay:

 

[Weetos]

He should use this butt spin instead
