As long as the watch isn't bigger than your wrist... It really is a nice one, I hope the planking champion fanyu managed to buy one.

The Origin watch really appeals to me more than the Swanyu one, though I guess technically my wrist would be considered too small for the Origin one. But on the other hand, it is my wrist so I get to decide what should be on it and if I like big, strong, hefty Origin, well then...

Well considering how he got really into Call Me Maybe, I'd say he enjoys his pop music!

One of the facts is that Yuzu said he loves taylor Swift and Lady Gaga and I did not know that

Are there any facts here in the replies or qrts that might be new to satellites? I think not! We could probably add to them?

This is a request to please let this drop now. Everybody is allowed to have their opinions about TCC coaches, or any coaches. If you wish to criticise any of them, it needs to be constructive: based on facts (that you can point to with reference if asked to). We do not allow baseless criticisms of, for instance, Raf or Eteri either. Criticism has to have basis in fact, or at least if you can't find a specific reference, acceptance within enough of the community that we can be reasonably sure the citation is out there, just needs some work to track down. Yuzu said in his interview that training in Sendai has pros and cons. He said that not being able to see his doctors in Toronto as he trains 4A is a con. There are definite advantages to being in Sendai, mostly connected to his freedom to train on his own time and schedule. However else he feels, it's up to him and not for us to guess. It's definitely not for us to infer any kind of animosity between him and his coaching team when neither party has shown any as far as we know. It is perfectly legitimate to have complaints about Brian - personally I think that his PR game when it comes to Yuzu is pretty below par and in a heavily politicked sport with coach bonus, it might be a contributing factor to some of Yuzu's inexplicable components, but that is my personal opinion and if it's not shared, I cannot source it and neither can I argue that I'm right and everybody else wrong because again, it is just my perspective on things. Therefore I'll accept that my opinion is a fairly minority one, agree to disagree and move on, rather than derail the General Yuzuru Chat thread by repeating myself. If you wish to criticise Brian or any other person at TCC any more, kindly do so with specific citations and primary sources. Everybody has heard your point of view on them and made it fairly clear that most disagree with you. At this point, if you wish to continue the discussion, it needs to be with more than your opinion, which has already been heard. Thank you for your time.

WTT fluff thread is now open!

The recent news about Euros: Plus a few soft whispers that a fed has unofficially told their skaters that they can expect Euros and Worlds to be canceled (this is unconfirmed and a rumour so far) makes it very likely that Nationals are fairly irrelevant this year anyway. I think holding Nationals is a very bad idea, without audience, as well. Looking at the numbers in the area right now, even without audience, how would it be a good idea? Organizing an event on that scale cannot all be done online, setting it up cannot all be done over Zoom, and that process will involve more than five people together indoors at multiple times anyway - and even if they are all masked up and distance as much as possible, that is still unnecessary risk that would go against cautious guidelines. To top that off, we do know that Yuzu is a high risk individual because of his asthma, so him being out of his bubble at all would be a risk. JSF is being pretty terrible by advertising their event using a high risk individual who would be in danger even for a no-audience event. We've seen how backstage and training areas end up being - people wait indoors while warming up. There are coaches and teams present. There are organizers and staff present. The longer you spend indoors with a group of people, no matter how good your mask, the higher the risk if just one person is an asymptomatic carrier at a point too early to be detected by a test. Having an event at all is a gathering of people, indoors. Doing that in a place where numbers are rising, audience or not, seems like a pretty terrible idea to me, for everybody involved - let alone when you add a high risk headliner to the mix. It's a figure skating event, not an essential service. (Even if seeing Yuzu feels like an essential service for the sustenance of life to be me rn lol I'm at the full-on dramatic stage of Yuzu-withdrawal.) So yeah, I hope there's no undue pressure on Yuzu to compete, because left to himself, I believe he'd WD.

Considering Yuzu has asthma, I hope he does WD. Even if I would sell a piece of my own soul to see him skate again, I would never want to risk even a piece of him.
