Two, he has by far the best jumping technique of men. You don't destroy your boot as much when you are landing light as a feather and well balanced each time, as he does.

Yes, in this article, he also assumes the reason why he doesn't have to change the boots often and says he probably doesn't rely on the boots when he jumps or in the landings. Amazing :thumbsup:
 
Yuzu is really the embodiment of work smart.
He gets the results by efficiently using his resources.
I wonder if its also because he is putting his human informatics(?) major in action.
Now I am curious what his thesis will be about :jaw:

Many thanks to the translator.:agree:

We gotta give this person lots of love.

I don't know if its posted but:
Article title: Hanyu, Ledecká rise above it all in a year when world sport needed them - and other athletes - as salvation from scandal and cowardice

"WORLD MEN’S ATHLETES OF THE YEAR

Gold – Yuzuru Hanyu, Japan, figure skating. After a Nov. 9 ankle injury forced him to the sidelines for nearly two months, Hanyu returned to competition at the Winter Games in February and staked a claim as the G.O.A.T. in men’s singles by becoming the first since Dick Button in 1952 to win consecutive Olympic titles."

Some good feels for the Golden Boy.
 
Congratulations on the award(s), Yuzu!


Also, I don't know if this has been posted, but is this really Yuzu getting a solo performance of Plushenko's Sex Bomb at the FaOI practice?

(Found on this post here)

That must have been a dream come true, although I suppose he would have preferred Tribute to Nijinsky to Sex Bomb. :laugh:

At first I thought it must be for COiNTU, but it's too early....

The mind boggles.

EDIT: Interesting to note that there's another version of each costume...will they ever see the light of day? What might they look like?

My god, the work that went into it (and worth every bit, but still...
 
【2019-20 Grand Prix Series】
2019.10.18-20 Skate America
2019.10.25-27 Skate Canada
2019.11.01-03 Trophee de France
2019.11.08-10 Cup of China
2019.11.15-17 Rostelecom Cup
2019.11.22-24 NHK Trophy
2019.12.05-08 Grand Prix Final Italy

So which ones do you think Yuzu will go to? My bet is SC and Rostelecom cup. SA won't invite him and WC 1-3 seeds can't be in the same competition. Yuzu doesn't like the paper medal and plastic star so no France. COC I don't know... he may be superstitious, but I'd love to see him go there and get a gold. NHK is too close to GPF.
 
A tweet by max about the TCC photo:
All together again and ready for new challenges.
- Javier #Fernandez in search of the seventh European title in a row.
- #YuzuruHanyu to win the third world title five years after the first.
Together they have won 4 of the last 5 world titles.
The best you can find.
