  1. Thank you all,it was very intresting to learn especially because i've always looked at it form a dizzines prospective(even a a bare mimimun one for trained skaters like they are)but never from a effort/energy point of view....maybe because they look so effortless it never even crossed my brain that of course they require lots of energy,maybe not as much as jumping I guess but still you need it a lot!
  2. It’s also so dramatic a certain guy from japan may just love it😜 I’ve always thought skaters finish with very fast spins because it’s like going out with a bang and also because even if they are trained to do so it still may take them a couple of seconds to recover ? But I really liked Rika for example didn’t ended her program with those spins last year ,it makes things a little bit more interesting.
  3. And the feeling that skating leaves you with ,for that there no scoring sistem good enough! fellow skaters ,no matter if they are jr or not,know a good thing when they see it ISU cannot and it’s their loss. I have no reason because of course I ve never met him but I feel strangely proud of Yuzuru , like he’s a friend and not someone I admire ....he’s really changing the sport !
  4. This is very interesting and I wish we all could leran from it,even here where ballet is very popular people still thinks of male ballet dancers as not man enough. And it's mostly about ballet because if you do ballromm dance or hip hop well then that's fine....again hopefully things will change and we'll stop to judge people like this. slightly ot but i love the idea that male skaters are the sporty cousins LOL
  5. Yay for Liza ...I really like it more with Florence's song! I understand it's a risk(TP and judges are old fashined and Piazzolla is more accepted maybe then Florence)but still I hope she keeps it this way!
  6. She still has the same smile....happy birthday Tracy!
  7. Don’t know if this can be considered fan art but it makes me happy so hope it works for you too 🙂
  8. they really belong to another era,just look at isu.org:less user friendly site ever
  9. In italian we say fare i conti senza l'oste ,which means calculating your own bill without the owner of the restaurant ;-P Now Yuzuru said a neverending number of times that artistic perfection is only doable through perfect tech,for him those 2 things cannot exist separated,so I doubt someone like him would be interested in a competition like ISU talks about. I don't know what he'll do of course but selfishly I hope he'll keep skating after he stops competin,he's a very smart creative guy i'm sure he would come up with something unique.after all Continues was already unique and original. I'll miss the competition side terribly ,nothing like the adrenaline of a competition can give us a performance like H&L for example, but I'm very very curious to find out how Yuzuru will evolve....not too curious tho,so Yuzu in case you're lurking I can wait LOL
  10. In my mind I can't really see him being completely far from FS ,in what capacity i have no idea but it seems to me he loves it too much to simply leaving it for good. Also he said several times whow he even hates to 'lose' during arguments he may have with his family ,can you imagine him discussing a topic during a ISU meeting?people would probably be like,ok we agree as long as you shut up LOL I think I'm dead by hydroblading
  11. so true ...he has entire conversations in that amazing brain of his LOL My other faves candid pics are while he 'sings' like these ones
  12. perfect emoji is perfect LOL I'm on my way to convice(AKA blakmailing)my best friend to do something crazy and try to go to Torino....either she stops talking to me or I'll drag her along ! she loves Japan(been there several times)she knows Japanese so of course I sent her Seimei video(several versions) and I think it's working ! About Fans at competitions it is a bit sad to see empty seats even from home,but as other have said sometimes you just need a break:the ideal would be trying to take that break at the right moment but that it's not always possible. Rude people are everywhere but as long as the majority of fans(being thm Yuzuru's or other skaters)behave I think it's fine.
  13. Yuzu has no defence against kids also this
  14. didn't he hush some people last year after his K&C at ACI?so yeah it could be a message.....although sometimes I imagine it's hard not to do that because of course there's an amotional involvement. What I really found wrong was fans throwing gifts at ACI knowing perfectly well they couldn't ,that was really rude to me.

    Otonal

    i think this deserve to be here,I fear I'm repeating myself but really his brain
  16. either they live under a rock or simply they are too busy inside their high-class swiss HQ....let me post here the very 1st answer they got,don't who this person is but well done to them Delurked by the power of salt...welcome here ! I don't know if something belonging to Asian media but i've never seen anything like this before,usually is a pretty business like relationship ,still it's very nice he gets this kind of support too.
  17. http://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/delhi/2019/sep/19/delhi-based-ice-skater-dreams-to-win-olympic-gold-medal-2035905.html apart for wishing Aaditabh for his dreams to come true ,the many young skaters Yuzuru influenced still amazes me ❤️ His legacy is literally already changing the face of this sport and he’s still competing !
  18. To be able to one day watch the whole creative process,it'd be adream really! He is beautiful to watch even when he just skates around.
  19. everything is his calculations it's real and it's coming...I'm not ready!.... Watching all those pics he clearly has grown but he's still the cutest! I adore Jordan,he seems he filmed Yuzuru so close you almost feel like he's landing that jump right in front of you,i can't wait for the final cut. I aslo love Keegan face while snatching the flag,like a little boy cought with his hand in the cookie jar LOL Now Yuzuru in the remote chance you're lurking you've been given excellent ideas for EX(Pink Panther and Queen ,who could ask for more)...just saying On the topic of Yuzuru supposed shyness or lack of say social/romantic life , I just think he doesn't like to have his private life scrutinized by media and /or general public :he clearly adores being the center of the attention while on ice and performing but then as soon as he is without his boots on he's just not interested in being seen from all over the world even simply posting the pic himself like others do. It's a very specific choice he has in common with a lot of great artists/athlethes ,it seems to me he doesn't want neither need that kind of popularity one may gain being at the right party with the right people ,he simply wants to be recognized as the great(est)skater he is. Just my two cents of course
  20. I remember Satomi saying the exact opposite thing about his neck and the ruffles,since his neck is long and slender you can use them and I remember thinking ,no no no Satomi the ruffles need to go like yesterday LOL I whole heartly agree with you about all those changes too(especially about the belly bit)
  21. I wonder what was all the shaking while on the chair ,excitement while waiting for the score?or was he simply stretching is legs?at the beginning of it both him and Brian looks down ....whatever it was is so cute and funny at the same time ...funny until they announced the score of course which btw ,according to someone on Twitter, took them 6 minutes
