Congratulations to the beautiful couple! Eric is such a sweetheart, I'm so happy for them

I honestly don't even want to hear about the 4A this season. I can only hope he's smart enough to not practice a jump that had even the best jumpers worried about breaking their necks over, during the Olympic season. I have a serious case of PTSD regarding his injury prone self.

He's probably playing with the layout. In case his 4Lo has a (-) success rate, he'll likely go for the 4T during the OG. Its something he and Nathan seems to do often whereas Yuzu is more of a do-or-die kind of guy.

It says so much yet so little Judging by the language she used, its likely not Seimei 2.0? Looks like I'll miss the excitement this weekend.

Copying this over from FSU @Ka3sha Why is Petrov on the main list while Sergei's on reserve? Off memory, his international results were not all that great and was actually behind Sergei's, no? K/S and I/Z makes me

I want them....

He loves the program itself and feels he hasn't done it justice / to its full potential. He knows he can do it better and feels Ballade shows a side of his skating that only Ballade can. Sounds like Chopin's here to stay guys I thought I had seen it at its best and I hope he proves me wrong, like he always does.

I can't see your adorable ava

It was quite obvious unfortunately. Silence from both of them for a while, not even a good luck from Miki during GPF/Worlds and she posted stuff about others skaters. Nothing during the holidays either. But it's lovely to see they're still on good terms whether they're back together or not.

It probably depends on the contract but for Yuzu I think he is limited to ANA as his affiliate. It doesn't matter though since his training and travel expenses are more likely than not all covered and he has so many endorsement deals.

I'm gonna see Messi in July!

Yuzu's relationship with ANA has always been athlete-sponsor, not employee. My memory is a bit hazy but ANA funds his training/travels as his sponsor (partial?). I’m not sure what relationship Shoma has with Toyota, but the articles I’ve seen were very specific about the word employee and mentions its being temporary while he still attends chukyo uni.

Pftttt. They're really doing their utmost over there.

Chances are that he will. He has never won his first GP so the odds are against him. That said, I'm glad its Nathan he is up against and not Shoma; purely for politicking reason.
