Our favorite commentators being so supportive of Yuzu.

Yuzuru said in the interview in this news program, "For me, doing 4T-3A in the first half (of the program) is normal. Probably I don't think I will be satisfied with doing such a normal thing." This guy

Yuzu usually doesn't attend the morning practice right?

I think it depends on the competition, if it is the last practice session before the game, he must be there.

I hope he is anyway, for all the people who got up at godwhattimeisit oclock for him (okay, naysayers may insist that some of them are there for Boyang Mikhail and the rest, but ...)

Wait, today's practice is very early in the morning? Like 7 am in Helsinki? Sorry for the skaters...

Yes, we're here seeing the practices. I had to wake up before six am and it was really difficult but I'll do anything for Yuzu. Actually the arena is more crowded now than for Ice Dance...

I love how before the rest of the guys have all shuffled onto the ice, he’s done one crossover into VROOOM and lapped them. [emoji23]

ETA: Another angle of Yuzu hitting the ice:

[yude]

He is doing great around 8 am!

 

[Metis]

Yuzu is murdering it in practice, which is... a bad omen? Good omen? This ice is so cursed, who even knows?

 

[JuliettaG]

Clean run through!! Everything perfect

 

[yude]

I hope he will repeat that in the game, fingers crossed!

That's one of the things I love about fancam, it may not be as shiny professional as the, well professional film and the hands holding the camera are so often shaking a bit, but you do seem to get a better sense of just how fast he moves on the ice.... it's breathtaking sometimes.

With Yuzu this early in the season, who knows? :hpull:

Regarding the first point: WORD. I’m always blown away by his sheer speed. And by how tall he is, relatively speaking. [emoji23] (We’re the same height, which makes me an Amazon when most of the top guys are several inches shorter.)

Kolyada and Boyang still to go, but so far Yuzu has had the cleanest warm up? And Kolyada’s RT went up — no jumps, I think? So, yeah, no idea what kind of sign this is, because this event has been a wild ride so far... but if we’re lucky and he goes clean, new SP WR?

Seems Boyang didn't come to the practice.

Ok, Yuzuru's practice was so fine according to the reports, Good luck to him in SP

 

[TallyT]

I'm trying not to jinx by thinking of the records, but it would be beyond amazing and wonderful if he got one (or both!) back where they belong....

 

[JuliettaG]

I hope he will repeat that in the game, fingers crossed!

He had a really good practice, I think he only fell on a 3A,and the only 4lo he did was perfect, fingers crossed for the short

If you feel like looking at the most recent Tweets under the #GPHelsinki hashtag, you’ll find oodles more fancam bits and also the news that Yuzu found a hole in the ice... the assault on the rinkmonster begins.

Hey, maybe he'll appease the rinkmonster by showing such care for the ice...
