  1. Tatjana Flade had just tweeted link to her new article at GS: Hanyu heads optimistically into Olympic season
  2. Another mention: Kinda ot: why "Hanuy"?! It bugs me every single time!
  3. Daisuke has a flutz and Jason has a flat edge in the lutz. The lutz video maker was wrong to include Daisuke and Jason. These videos are called "various flips/lutzes" and I think their point was to show different entries with different steps (I love Jason's with walley. Too bad Yuzu had to discard walley before 3Lz+3T in Chopin)
  4. I think they'd call stricter, give him less GOE love and 4F wouldn't even be ratified in the first place. PCS wouldn't be that generous too imo.
  5. Same here! Especially with skaters who rotate in opposite direction, ie Carolina Kostner.
  6. Насколько известно, еще не закончил. 4 года - это минимальный срок обучения, но для выпуска надо набрать определенное количество кредитов. В этом как раз плюс такого дистанционного обучения - есть возможность подстраивать темп учебы под свою занятость. На специальности Юзу учеба может длиться до 8 лет, так что у него есть еще достаточно времени чтобы, например, отложить написание выпускной работы на после ОИ.
  7. I would like to take a peek into AU where Shoma belongs not to team Japan but to team "we're fewer but still good". His program layouts would be different for sure. :rofl2: :goe:
  8. Honestly I don't see 4Lz coming yet. It took him over 2 years to introduce 4Lo (he started doing it on shows spring 2014 - I still remember so clear first footage of 4Lo (fall) in Sapporo). And he told that next season he needs to be clean. It takes some time for him to get used to new jump in competitions, and not sure it's good idea to add completely new jump in Olympic season (remember how Brian said that Yuzu said him that he has to make mistakes now, in pre-Olympic season?) So I think he'd train 4Lz in off-season, but won't include it in programs. Yet I'm 100% sure he'd upgrade his layout in some way just not that drastic.
  9. Yeah, techpanel identifies Lz/F by entry. They were going to change that and identify by actual takeoff edge, but gave up that idea I think... There are and videos, maybe they would be helpful.
  10. There is long (very long) interview with Eteri http://rsport.ru/interview/20170505/1120015384.html She mentions Yuzu couple of times, but mostly it's about her own coaching methods, students who left her etc. IMO from this interview she comes across as insecure, and she basically says "There are two opinions - mine and wrong". Still an interesting read (sorry, I can't translate it, my English in not that good). And even if she mentioned recently Yuzu as a skater who'd she love to work with, it would never work for him. He is a man of strong character, she calls her students 'work material' and 'products'.
  11. Same thoughts. Satoko and Shoma have same issues (both being tiny) with jumps but somehow you can say anything about her and nothing about him without being stigmatized? I quite liked Shoma as junior, when he was doing just triples. Even his 4T wasn't too bad at his first year of doing it. Btw reports from PIW mention him trying 4Lz at the shows. Seriously :ohno:
  12. My favorites (they're kinda old, mind you) Close to Yuzu by YzRIKO http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2pllf ... yuzu_sport It's about Yuzuru and Brian Yuzuru Hanyu-Routines by Layla Hong Triple Axel Revolution ~20th Hanyu Edition by YMAKIZO https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2bz4 ... tion_sport YzRIKO's Recollections series 2014-15 -GPS Chapter- http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x38g2o ... pter_sport 2014-15 ーFinal Chapterー http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2ntl95 2015-16 http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x40ab1 ... ions_sport 2015-16 ―Final Chapter― http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4968r ... pter_sport
  13. Apparently that's the first ever video of Yuzuru landing 4T, filmed 7 years ago (May 4th, 2010):
  14. I wonder how new could it be, you can pretty much replace music from one program with another and it'd look just fine, cause he uses that same arm movements and same glares. Another piece of info from PIW - he was asked about his sleeping hours, and apparently he sleeps from 8 to 12 hours a day. Wow.
  15. Idk, I don't follow North American ice shows at all. It interested me mainly because of previous discussion about DW working with / battling with Shae on Yuzuru's LP. It seems probable that David has other stuff to do in current window of time.
  16. With all choreographers' talk - Seems David is on SOI too? Or maybe he just attended the show, I think they are performing in Ontario area now.
  17. Today is Children's Day in Japan! [image]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C_BSL_NVoAAmbZl.jpg[/image]

  19. Same. I was expecting Sochi season dominate (myself being one of that wave) but number of relatively new fans is surprising :wtf:
  20. Yumi-san was quite close, to the right side of where Gabby and other guys from Cricket Club are. I don't think Tracy would point to girls, and pointing to mom makes sense.
  21. Thank you for the news on S/H! I haven't had enough of their programs too, but given they had perfect SP and almost perfect FS (shame about 3S!) performances, it's easier to let these programs go. Can't wait to see new ones. I'm not very well informed about usual order for Chinese skaters, would we have to wait for GP series or there'd be some show or national competition before GP where they could skate the programs?
  22. I will bring it up and we'll try to find a solution. In the meantime, if you wish, you can deactivate the display of signatures in your profile: User Control Panel, Board preferences, Edit display options, Display signatures: no :clap: Thanks for the reply! Just as I posted I remembered that forums usually have such option and switched it to "no". At the same time it's sad to deactivate them at all because I really love many signatures. It's just the size of some which is bit overwhelming.
  23. I don't want to sound rude, but maybe there should be put some limits to size of images in signatures? Some threads are getting bit hard to read, when people set as their signature 450px height drawings and such. I think it's usual to limit them to something like 500x200 or even less.
