I kinda have this feeling that putting 4LZ in sp is very much doable. Check Yuzu's SP layout in Sochi season: 4T/3A 3LZ3T. Wouldn't it be fabulous to see it upgrade to 4LZ/3A 4T3T after four years? Max my friend, you certainly know how to bring me back to life

As I expected

I think it really depends on his physical and mental status when it comes to YOLO time; but let's hope he does not have to YOLO anymore this season. Everything goes well as planned, love and peace

Yahh I dont think Yuzu would ever drop off 3F. It seems important for him to include all six jumps in the FP ; but if he does I will be glad just because of the higher BV and potentially higher GOE

I think they came for the event; the majority came in to watch the final group.

As long as he does not put 4LZ into SP where a single mistake on jump can be over costly, I am perfectly fine with him trying 4LZ in the LP. His only attempt on 4lo during ACI's op was totally solid so I am not so worried about the sp with 4lo. Yuzu likes challenging himself; he does not play safe. If he wishes to do it, and he believes he can do it, just let him go for it. Don't ever play the game against your nature

Like I told my BF, there is no so-called NORMAL LIFE for me till next Feb. It will always be time before Yuzu's comp, time of Yuzu's comp, and time after Yuzu's comp

Sima! Her sp from 1314 season remains as one of my all-time fav and I am so so so happy to see her make a promising move

Oh my heart-broken moment

I had a reinforcement treatment with my Boston PTSD last nightbut its okay, my faith on Yuzu never changes, just get stronger than ever.

On the train back home I just realized the first comp of this season is done and gonemake me wanna order Korean take-out and jump into the hot tub. Otherwise I dont feel I would be ready to go back to work tomorrow.

Back to the Jr high schoolboy look

One day, the short program will be gone; and the long program will be cut even shorter; and guess what, the entire sport will kiss goodbye to Olympics. WTG, ISU

I bet he has at least two layouts planned, and one of them includes 4lz

The media is so quiet that I don't think Yuzu had jumped 4lz in the op

He had decided to keep the program for Oly almost 2 yrs ago so there never was a new program

You are absolutely correct

I wish Yuzu could continue to work with JeffI might be biased, but Jeff produces the best for Yuzu IMO.

Then it is not about repeating programs; it is about exploring new styles. He could have chosen a similar piece of music and guess what some people will say? "He had skated to a similar one and that one was better"

Generally speaking, using new music does not necessarily mean new things, artistic-wise; it could be same old same old that I have seen enough in the past; also going back to an used piece does not necessarily indicate a step-back.

I believe 4lz is on its way My faith on 4lz is firing

That's the point!

It's now 5:30 pm in Toronto so based on the schedule it shall almost be over

But there are interviews with Shae-Lynn and David Wilson right? So we at least will know about the music, wouldn't we?

ACI is exciting than ever!!!
