makebelieveup

yup that was at faoi or another ice show but it was 4 seasons ago haha. what im trying to say is he doesnt really let us know at this point until very late in the off season. he can announce an ex though so we'll see

haha i was referring to competitive programs

I think it is for ice shows. Yuzu doesnt usually announce his new programs until media day at this point. he rarely skates his programs at faoi now except for last 2 seasons when he recycled chopin. but we never knowww

I'm not sure I just thought it means it will receive a -5 of the base value of a 2s on top of it being invalidated. so 0 minus the -5 goe on a 2s. idk whatever now lol

I must confess I always thought it was a one leg cantilever haha i never knew what to call it

The -5 on the falls sort of makes sense at first because personally i find that it causes a disruption in a program. its one of those things that audience had questioned before hence, the isu came out with this rule..the idea behind it is to reward a lower bv element done cleanly while penalizing a higher bv element done poorly. this is to incentivize skaters to limit quads so they focus on what they do best i.e. jason brown with a clean skate with triples in his sp was able to top nathan's sp with a serious mistake. but the problem is the way the judges are scoring these elements. triples are often rewarded with lower goes when executed well than a quad when executed poorly. in addition to that, judges will throw in points for every other element for their chosen skaters where casual audience tend not to pay attention to like spins and stsq. the results will show the people with a higher bv even if they made mistakes get a higher tes and that will also mean higher pcs. and honestly, the reason why nathan lost the sp at gp idf to jason was bc he lost spin levels and his jump mistake was serious. yet he was only like 6 points behind a squeaky clean jason. and back to the new rule..so it makes no sense for a popped element to get a -5 bc 1. i dont find it disrupting any flow of the progam 2. its like getting double penalization 3. it is basically saying oh its better if you attempt a quad or quint, fall on it or underrotate it, than pop an element. because not only are you not getting any point for it, your overall score will get a -5 deduction. (if this is what im understanding) that to me is nothing different from the +3/-3 last system

Thank you. i dont think we need to be objective when it comes to the isu. they are known for changing the rules to fit their agenda, its not a surprising thing. its just really sad at this point that i cant even enjoy my off season

thank you so much!

thank you so much again I also saw ur retweet🙏🙏🙏 oh I think I know which one you're talking about! I will try my best to look for it. i think i saw it on tumblr. thanks a lot tho!

thank you!!

I saw that on twitter. its been 2 months since worlds and im still traumatized

thank you so much!!

loll its okayy oh I already have it! haha i cant believe i have two raf quotes down out of all the weird things he said about yuzu

I just watched Rika's fs and oh my gosh, the maturity in her skating. I love the development over the past season! <3333 The choreo is so interesting. I think Tom D. def works for her. the complexity in her program with all those transitions and multidirectional skating, beautiful usage of arm movements and great body extensions. Such a unique program that's beautifully choreographed. her jumps are always looking so solid. i can't wait to see how it is even further developed by the end of the season.

Thanks!! I took the snippet of her talking about his qualities of a champion

Hey guys! I posted this in the Weloveyuzu thread but thought I should ask here as well since more people come here I am compiling some quotes for our cheer project and I think I just want to get the best quotes from the following people on Yuzu as a skater/person (rather about his perf/program). Vincent Zhou - not sure if he ever talked about Yuzu. I know he looks up to Yuzu but I have never come across one from him. Daniel Grassl - (if any) Nobu Jun - I am looking for his recent interview where he talked about Yuzu. I know it's on Twitter but couldn't seem to find it. Shae Lynn Borne (not from ciontu) Jeffrey Buttle (not from ciontu) Tessa and Scott (If any) Thank you so much in advance!

this is depressing

Well as useless JSFSA is I think they will try to get at least Rika to qualify. She has the highest ceiling for the short program for now and she is also upping her bv for both the short and free next season. as long as she could land at least 2 triple axels, I think she can qualify. I dont see any us ladies qualifying aside but Alysa Liu but she's still a junior. We'll probably see 5 russians and 1 japanese with Evgenia, Elisabet, and Liza fighting for the last spot

next season will be a blood bath to qualify for gpf for the ladies team russia alina, alena, alexendra, anna, evgenia, liza team Kazakhstan elisabet tursynbaeva team japan Rika and Kaori

praying that Rika baby skates clean both programs next season and grab the titles she deserves

Thanks! I knew it because he was like "I would like to do a quad axel but..." and we know how there is no more "but" after Saitama

this seems like an old interview before 18/19 season. does anyone know

I'm a simple person, I see Yuzu I like ETA: you know I'm just really impressed by this account. It pretty much covers all the things that fans know about and share it in a short and sweet article. It's a good way to promote Yuzu to nonfans on their acct. And I realized Japan Olympic also has their own acct but they don't even tweet that much about Yuzu

i think the reason why yuzu isn't doing a lot of upbeat program is because it would cause too many deaths. he's being considerate
