    His PCS in the SP was more than okay

    It's funny, 'cause yes, if you look at Javi's scores alone (not talking about that questionable UR now), they are okay. But when you look at Samarin's after that... Honestly, I don't know how they could give him 42 in SP, that SP is c-o-m-p-l-e-t-e-l-y empty. I was shocked watching it at arena, like, just preparation for elements and elements themselves. How could such program get 42? So if Samarin got 42, Javi should have got about 50, which is impossible. Judging was really weird...

    Thank you! It is very good document about the fans. I downloaded it but I don´t want to put it on Youtube or any other video sites.

    Aw-w, the video is so sweet and warm *__* Thank you for uploading! Finnish TV did a great job :)

    If you made a website that hosted videos, especially publicly, easily accessible, that would would only serve to draw the attention of the same entities that claim copyrights to the website as a whole and get whoever is hosting it in trouble with them.

    ... but there are countries which didn't sign Universal Copyright Convention. So theoretically if a website is under jurisdiction of such country laws, copyright owners could block it "outside" only?

    But it'd be hella expensive all the same, even if doable.

    It is my understanding that since ANA sponsors Yuzu, they restrict his endorsements to 5 other companies. To avoid diluting his "brand".

     

    I've heard that JSF restricts jpn skaters on quantity of their ads, but nothing about ANA doing anything like that.

    (I know other TCC skaters had their own plushy tissue cases, but I don't remember seeing Brian carry them. Only Pooh and now Luna lol)

    He did carry Javi's and Nam's plushy tissue-boxes. But Javi and Nam hadn't them for long, if my memory serves me right.

    I just wanted to see an article with the names of the music no more or less. 

    It wasn't the case in the past years, so hardly worth waiting.

    And not all skaters did announcements, afaik, Gabrielle and Guillaume even said that they has no intention to tell music before competitions. So each team decides what way is better for them.

    On the other hand, there was a comment on a Javi post on instagram some days back saying they couldn't wait to see him in Shanghai. That combined with this made me wonder if there's some event in China, maybe multiple locations... Though I'm not sure what it could be with Javi, Brian and Tracy all involved...

    Javi has a show in Shanghai on 16th of September (SOI), but it has nothing to do with Brian and Tracy's trip.

  8. Not sure that this is the right place, but... Well, this season Europeans will take place in Minsk, Belarus, and just today the news arrived that visa free time (for foreigners arriving to Belarus through national airport ) is extended up to 30 days http://belarusfeed.com/belarus-visa-free-30-days/

    So, if anyone wants to see Javi's presumably last competition, they don't have to apply for visa when arriving by air (but not through Russia as there isn't border control between Russia and Belarus).

    Does anyone know if these are shipped worldwide or if they can be purchased through a proxy site? I've never tried anything else other than cdjapan, I wonder if they'll put it on their site....

    I think it will be sold on Amazon and CD-Japan as well, and these ones do ship worldwide.

    I've finally received all the goods. I'm drowning in bliss

    Looks great:)

    I hope CD-Japan would eventually send me mine... it's almost two weeks already, couldn't they move their warehouse a month later?:sadPooh:

    And then when asked how many times he'd been to Kanazawa, he had to check with someone off-stage...I wonder who that would've been?

    It was Yoshiko Kobayashi, you can spot her there (she got into the shot for some seconds).

    Yeah, lots of athletes and their coaches are very economical with the truth. By not revealing the truth and behaving in a confident manner, Yuzu and Brian piled up pressure on their rivals. 

    Thank goodness for Javi playing along. 

    Yes, they all played it great. I'm still amazed.

    I wonder what he liked so much about POTO? Did he like the broadway musical? Did he even see it? :biggrin: (omg)

    Sorry for bringing topic back.

    Afaik POTO is quite popular in Japan and has a long run at Takarazuka (I don't know about right now, but 10-12 years ago the musical was running there), so Yuzu could hear the music somewhere and see the movie as well. I doubt he saw the show at theatre as, i think, he said at one point that he's never been to live concerts, and maybe it's applied to shows as well?

     

    (As a fan of POTO myself I personally don't question his wish to skate to it :biggrin:)

  14. Jumps – In order to have more varied Programs and to give credit to Skaters that can perform different quad jumps, any quad jump can be performed only once in a Free Skating Program

    I don't like it. Like, at all.

    And ISU making restrictions to Free Program content - it sounds absurd even from philological point of view.

    Oh, well.
