To be fair to Eteri, I doubt that the RusFed will give all its spots at worlds to just her skaters. It's political too. So even if she gets all her girls into GPF and so, for worlds etc, she might be able to secure 2 spots. Kind of amusing, there were comments in Chinese FS boards that due to how the system works, one of her other girls will probably leave once all the 3 main junior girls go senior, because you just have to otherwise RusFed might not give you the worlds spot.

So if Yuzu saw these, is he smiling and laughing his head off at Javi's expense, or thinking "that looks interesting, I want to try"?

Hanyu-conomy hitting the food ingredients industry, and providing a never ending supply of baked goods to your family and friends?

I can't wait for a proper program. (sorry to the other skaters...but a certain troll's programs are just another level IMO)

They had boxes that you can drop things off for skaters. Kind of like the ice shows. Yuzu's box got filled very very very fast.

I find it ironic he says he's catlike, yet he's technically a dog based on lunar zodiac. A "dog" that loves cats and is cat-like.

Um...R&J might be the new rite of passage song for TCC men?

I have mooncakes. Starbucks sells a really nice one with caramel frappucino filling flavor. There's also some matcha flavored ones too. Tea, mooncakes and rice crackers while watching Yuzu on ACI Livestream-sounds divine.

Murieleirum, have some sympathy for my hair please.

I don't really care too much about it because guess who holds the historical records for all three categories (short, long and total combined).

Yeah...there was a team that tried a throw loop, and the girl was off-axis when he threw her. Granted, they are young, so I don't think the guys have the strength yet to support all those throws?

In a lot of the throw jumps, the guy did a really sloppy toss out, quite a few times tossing partners off-axis.

*facepalms* I am watching the pairs competition right now, and man...I don't want to be any of the current men after this competition when coach Zhao comes to "chat with you."

They might want both, I think it kind of goes hand-in-hand. But yes, I think he's improved a lot, and if the earlier posts saying he's gotten more involved with his programs (from even clothing), then I think he's on an okay track.

Stamina issues? Think he was aiming towards the board when he is slightly desperate and running low on stamina. =/ But yeah, I think this is a good program and feel for him-put his quickness to use.

Guys, qqlive guy is streaming and Boyang is up next. 4Lz-fell on a forward edge and slid towards board, probably UR, unless he overrotated by half a rotation...(which would mean 5Lz on a way? O_o) 4S- fell... 4Lo(?)- landed...oy vey popped 4T probably 3A-Lo-2S- uh, his love for the boards is making a comeback Popped another T....boy won't give up on his 4T no? Missed this jump, might be a normal 3A? Spins really slow today. Boyang....you can't abandon all your other jumps just to play with the new toy 4Lo. I think the program has potential, and it's got more latin flair than many other latin programs out there. I can see where Kurt's influence is...but today's outing was, wow legendary first pancake level. That might have beaten Yuzu's ACI 2017 LP pancake in train wreck levels. Need a bit more "abandon" and "wildness " in the chSq. Maybe nag Kurt to fly to China or send him back to Canada for more instructions? Looks great in this shade of red though!

Oh am I the only person who'll vote d-that Yuzu will skate well in both programs? I don't think he'll go squeaky clean, but I don't anticipate the disasters of the last 2 seasons. Especially not the train wreck I saw live in 2017. So long as he doesn't go crazy, I think maybe something like 2 pops and 2 step-outs distributed between SP and LP (4 small issues) will be the likely case. Which is pretty good as far his first pancakes go.

Unless costume not ready again. ACI is upon us...does anyone want moon cake? Yuzu's skating through mid-autumn festival weekend, so I have a lot of sweets to pass out.

It looks like something between a saunter and a light jog-like competitive speed walking, but he's trying hard not to do that, so he's jogging. We need a new name for this type of movement.

Hmm...intl, I know he's improved, but I'm not sure if it's so dramatic enough to get notice and acknowledgement from judges. So intl probably about a 98? =( While now the steps is not a requirement, um, bet him not doing anything will be noticed and that might hurt his GOEs.

Boyang: 4lz3T- slightly on toepick on 4Lz landing. 4T(?)- landed a bit pitched forward, slightly wobbly //3A stable Could use a bit more speed on the steps, but the stsq has more commitment now, better extensions and bigger movements overall. ROFL- omg poor Boyang has to go help pick up plushies with the flower girls. The broadcaster guy in QQ Live is saying-"The best thing is, his 4Lz3T is no longer going up to the boards! That resolves the biggest issue." XD

while other skaters are scared of sparkles, east asian men are "MOAR sparkles!"

There's a chopin copy on the ice right now! XD And one that looks veerrry similar to Etude.

I think he and Danill will get along, but him and Eteri is another issue. The boy is stubborn and determined. Either he'll leave at some point, or she'll break down at some point. I think the new initiation present for all new Fanyus has to be a wig. It'll help out until you acclimate to the situation- we learn to accept facts of life when it comes to Yuzu, and then our hair will stop shedding and grown properly. But until then, a wig is a great best friend. =D

Well....*grabs wig* alright Yuzu, we're prepared-I think-wait not-wait yes-ah fine, no other options but fine, fine, we'll deal with the hair loss.
