You have studied this very deeply, I see.

I love the framing on this picture. Gorgeous.
-
It's becoming really crowded there. I don't mind, though. I'm loving all the new ships docking into port.
-
Another one for the Armada.

Chopin. As if it's not obvious how much I love it by my avatar.
-
Specs posted it at GS so I brought it here. Otherwise I wouldn't even have known!
-
And the complete breakdown on record scores, with both SP and FS this time around.

Has this Tracy Wilson interview translation from World Figure Skating issue 78 been posted here? It's the first time I'm seeing it. From Gladi's tumblr translations (thanks!), Tracy talks about Yuzu.
-
He looks so soft and calm and lovely here. Before the FS at WTT, after when looking at Pooh, I believe.

Quadruple 2017 Extra magazine cover. It's the wedding pose.

Yeah but that was early season, the 4Lo was new and it was expected. In NHK and GPF he only messed up 4Lo, a new element. The second half of the season was the problematic one, I think, because the combo issues returned there again even as (and especially frustrating because) the 4Lo stabilized.
-
He obviously understands he isn't bad at SP (his history shows it). Just this particular SP reared its ugly head on him in the second half of the season, so it left him with bad feelings. Here's hoping for some renewed confidence for 2017/2018 season! Interesting facts: In the FS, Javi does hold two perfect 10s (in CO and IN); the rest of the records go to Yuzu. I don't think he's gotten a full 10 in his FS components, not even in the 2015 GPF, though he's gotten plenty of individual 10s.

This could lead to an interesting discussion on zombification. Would we all even remember Yuzuru, when we're all zombies? Probably would depend on what kind of zombies. The dead kind of zombie? The parasite in your system making you more aggressive zombie? Would our memories even be intact? Would we still recognize Yuzu enough to want to bite him first? Or maybe we'd protect it, like a kitten!!!???? Would we still be inherently human as a zombie? Sorry, I didn't get a lot of sleep.

These faces will never get old. Does anyone remember where to find the original fancam of this?

He'd take on a leader role immediately and coordinate the construction of a survival shelter and hunting duties, but basically be unable to do any of those things himself. Oh wait, do you mean survival of the fittest a la Battle Royale or survival of the group?
-
Because everyone's inspiration inspired me too, I made a couple more. I've added them to my original post here.
-
Isn't he basically their covers? Heck, he is even in the anime Ice Jewels cover.
-
Max is my statistics spirit animal. Also, PChiddy getting all those 190+ FS scores but only once going over 200 makes my soul hurt. Come on, Patrick, you can do it and finally reach the 300-club!
-
And he's also yet to land 6-quads successfully so we'll see if he even tries to go for 7. I also don't think he's going to do a -4T combo (regardless of what Jackie thinks) but I thought it'd be fun to calculate BVs anyways.

The requirements are: Jump Combination: Double/Triple, Triple/Triple, Quad/Double, or Quad/Triple. So yeah, no 4-4 allowed in the SP. But nothing says it can't be done in the FS!
-
I imagine 4-4 combos (and to a lesser degree 3-4) might become more popular the season after Olys, with one less jumping pass, when one is trying to maximize their points.
-
Landing a backend -4T combo would definitely open up a few doors, but the rewards aren't particularly high, yeah. Just for fun, I did some calculations. Nathan's originally planned 6-quad layout for Worlds, with repeat 4F and 4Lz, was worth around 115.74 BV. A 6-quad layout that goes something like 4Lz3T 4F 4S 4Lz // 4F2T2Lo 3F4T 3A 3Lz would be worth 120.45 BV, only about 2 BV points less than a 7-quad layout with 4Lo (which was around 122 BV, give or take). And if were to add the 4Lo anyways as well as a 3F4T? Almost 127 BV.

I don't remember if Jackie was all 'omg potential backend -4T combo' when Shoma landed those 3A-4T.....
