Does anybody know anything about Yuzu contract with ANA? My jpn friend says it ended in September but goods and content will continue for some time. Is that true?

What I have seen so far is that foreign credit cards are accepted and tixplus app allows you to registrer foreign phone number (they even send you sms to verify your account, so it works somehow). TV Asahi doesn't accept foreign numbers but at the moment of application you have to introduce your phone number again and it is not checked. I wonder which of those three phone numbers is really the one used for issuing the ticket.

Idk if it is the right thread to ask, but is there any overseas fan who tried to apply for lottery with foreign credit card and phone?

Looks like reposting from the previous source.

The more I think of it less sense it makes. If the info was leaked by jsf, then how do they know about his future show plans. Otherwise it is someone from his team, even less likely. Anyway his determination about 4A, axels in RF, being at his best now, wanting to perfect his skating, jsf confirming him for new season…how does it connect with what that article wants us to believe.

Do you have the source? Thank you

Adding my 5 cents: First thing that comes to mind is that he intended to compete at GP series, but something happened in the last two weeks so he can't participate or even wants to skip entire season. Most likely health issue. Also it would explain assignments chaos. Second: the annoucement comes from his team, not jsf, it can be something entirely personal. Not very likely imho given the timing. Count it be retirement press con? idk. In other cases retirement press cons were announced as such.

Yes, I think sometimes it is just us projecting our hopes and fears onto whatever he (or Brian etc) says. I didn't read it as a direct confirmation of next season, but I stay rather optimistic nevertheless

Pre-PC timeline summary TT

Any translation says next year, but I think it means more next season because it makes more sense for a skater to count in seasons, not in years. Maybe it is just my wishful thinking, but getting stable 4A in 3 months after injury is quite hard even for Yuzu,

Also, have any of you tried parabolic blades? I mean is there any difference with classic ones? I want to try them someday (for obvious reason lol).

I have Wifa Prima Hobby, this is a beginners level actually (up to first single jumps). I can do toe loop and salchow ok, flip and loop with too-footed landing and half Lutz.

I am going to buy new boots as a Christmas gift to myself. I want them to last for at least two seasons and the objective for next year is to master Lutz and Axel. I haven't tried any boots yet, my old ones are for single jumps but they are not rigid enough. Should I go for double jumps level boots? I have Edea, Graf and Risport available in my area.

Does anybody own these ones https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/aw/d/4863367724/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=AN1VRQENFRJN5&psc=1 and https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/aw/d/4802304625/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_2?smid=AN1VRQENFRJN5&psc=1 The content seems to be the same: PC, Sendai Parade, CWW and FaOI, but the first one is quite expensive. So I can't decide... The new Figure Skaters is tempting but it is sold out for now...
