  1. is it a fancam?
  2. Hey, sorry about that, we're trying to clean it up and make it less confusing right now.
  3. actually most artwork of him is not as beautiful as he really is...most of them don't capture the essence of his beauty and it's very obvious. usually his eyes don't have the same...mischievous sexiness if you know what i mean
  4. AWWWWWW BBYYY STOP BEING SO MODEST EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN'T trust me, he knows
  5. BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
  6. haha did the other guy point it out? aww cutie he was such a bb, cute bb
  7. it's beautiful
  8. Ting Cui, she won silver at nationals last year in novice...
  9. wow! her jumps are gorgeous, she has so much air time
  10. Omg he's so adorable
  11. Reminder: only a few more hours left to vote!
  12. I trust Yuzu isn't even touching the 4A. He's not even sure he's doing the 4Lz...
  13. Elizabet's mom hahahha
  14. DEAD. WHY DOESN'T THIS ... HAVE PICTURES.
  15. Let's think on the bright side. No one suggested La La Land, afaik. Or Beyonce...or Taylor Swift....or Nicki Minaj......
  16. If they wanted someone pretty with a guiness book of world records logo in the same pic...well.....i understand
  17. That's so random! At first I thought his record was banned or something and was like what?!... but nope, just a random photo of him for no reason
  18. Poor girl. She was so talented. She wasn't the best jumper in the world but her jumps really improved after Sochi. If she retires, I'll miss her musicality, spins, and general charm. Hopefully she'll perform in shows but...I don't really watch shows much.
  19. IKR? Between autotune and lip syncing you don't really need to sing...and that's with copious voice lessons too. It's all about that charm and personality which Yuzu has in spades Haha you said it better than I did
  20. Hair or no hair, Brian has a sweet life...
  21. Most delicious beef I've ever had
  22. Yeah you're right, that does make the lutz difficult (and it does feel very unnatural on the ice - I think when I tried the lutz for the first time, I tried to jump clockwise). Compared to the flip, though...it's debatable. The BV difference is really small but perception affects things like GOEs and PCS.
  23. haha yes, yes it was maybe disney sends him free pooh-stuffs?
  24. My thoughts: Yuzuru's 4L is first and foremost rehabilitation for his injury I really like how Brian...acknowledged Yuzuru's natural ability xD Like, we all knew it, but it doesn't get talked about that much. And honestly that part where Yuzu got too obsessed with the 4Lo and started training it like a kid who forgot how scoring worked was so cute xD Anyway, a digression: From the way I learned it, jumps are given base values because of their difficulty, and toe loop and salchow are the easiest because there's a lot of prerotation that's normal in those jumps (almost half a rotation is expected), whereas there's less prerotation when it comes to flip and lutz because it takes off and lands on the same foot. And the toe loop/salchow kind of "opens" in the direction of the jump so it's easier. The loop is somewhere in the middle. However, it seems having a toe pick assist probably makes the flip/lutz easier at least when it comes to quads, and at the point when you're doing 4 rotations, that little tiny bit of extra prerotation probably doesn't matter all that much, does it? And given how only Yuzu (and now, Shoma, but depending on prerotation...eh debatable) have landed the 4Lo in international competition, it's actually kinda odd that the loop is "lower" in base value and has a perception of being "easier." The point values of jumps seems a bit off, IMO, like just because a single toe loop is easier than a single salchow (is it even?) doesn't mean a quad toe loop is easier than a quad salchow...but that's the point system we have at hand so that's how it'll be scored, I guess. Also, the base values aren't even so different (reflecting that it really isn't clearly harder) but the public/judges' perceptions (and their GOEs) seem to believe otherwise... -- Anyway, still reading ^^
