Yuzuru Hanyu: 2018-2019

[Metis]

As much as I love this entry, I do wish he kept his original one...

I prefer Classic 3A, if only because Twizzle Sandwich Axel can cause the hair to floop, and Yuzu gives me enough to worry about without adding that. [emoji23]

I think it's a wise choice to change the twizzle entry back to the good old counter. The twizzles looked very aesthetic, but Yuzu's air position wasn't ideal at ACI and HGP.
Counter-3A is a jump he can fully rely on with +5 across the board in sight. So he can focus on the iffy combo instead

Another very nice photo, here Yuzuru looks "oniichan" (older brother) to me

Kazuki says this is the first time to be in the official practice with Yuzuru, "I knew beforehand but he, Hanyu Yuzuru senshu only came here and made atmosphere of the competition totally different. I had never experienced it before and I have already started feeling his greatness." "This would be a good experience for me."

I love how the younger skaters at each competition are looking up to and being inspired by him... and yet he's still so young himself, only 23?

Actually that's precisely why I'd like him to keep it - challenge it until it's perfect... because we all know he can eventually do it.

Another new WR, 110.

I'm actually more curious abt that big golden fish plushie someone threw on the ice.lol. Very nice looking

 

[HanDomi]

Well... what to say.

Lovely skate by Yuzuru. I particularly like how the spins blend well with the music. :

 

[Silvia451]

Wow, it's getting better and better. That 4S

 

[firal]

I'm speechless he was amazing! Checking in on my travel destination wonky Internet connection, but I managed to catch the stream live and witnessed the spectacular showing!

[Weetos]

That was spectacular, and joyful, and I haven't had any lunch because I used my lunch break to watch skating instead of going to get food. It was worth it.

 

[TallyT]

Now has broken 110 four times in his career? - and no one else has at all?

He truly is The Greatest.

 

[Shedi0806]

No words, I am crying.

He oooooozes confidence. The King in his own dimension.

The spins are also so musical, they are part of the storytelling. Lovely to see that. Thank you Yuzuru!

P.S.: Hello Step Sequence 4!!!

"TAT said she talked with Brian yesterday after practice and Brian said that Yuzuru became like a completely new person this year. He's more happy and open with everyone - before he was incredibly concentrated all the time."

I am so happy

 

[Imov]

110.53 and 21pts clear of everyone else.
Good job Yuzu

Congratulations on your clean skate, Yuzuru

He said in the interview that he saw Tarasova was standing to cheer him during step sequence. What a man!

He has nothing to prove.

So he'll go ahead and prove it anyway.
