Hey guys, @yuzuangel will be making an official post about our website launch here later today but here is a new figure skating website we recently created! If you guys are interested in rewatching the men's SP and ladies' SP & FS, it's up on our website thanks to @LadyLou who shared the 4cc videos. We also have a lot of 2018/2019 competitions as well as other competitions prior to this season in different broadcasts/commentaries. Olympics, CWW, Eng subs that are taken down, Worlds... you name it. Hope you guys enjoy! SkatingPortal.com We're currently a work in progress. Lots of bugs and login issues. But that's what we need you guys for so please help us test it out. p.s. if you guys want to rant about figure skating, we have a thread for it lol Something to water our cactus, hopefully.

hey guys! just looking for some helping hands!

Hi guys! Over the past couple of months, my friends and I have been working on a project together in hopes of creating a small difference for our fs online community. We are reaching the home stretch on this project; however, we still need to lot more resources/helpers who are willing to help us put together a few more things and provide feedbacks. We are looking for people who are into downloading and archiving a lot of videos, hardworking, organized, and willing to help! It would be great if you could read/write another language other than English (Chinese, Russian, Japanese...etc) but that's not necessary. If all of these qualities sound like yours, please pm me and we can talk more about it!

wow many big names I know and Boyang will be there too!

My fave short program of the ladies' single for this season is Satoko's Song for the little Sparrow and free is Rika's beautiful storm. Cant wait to watch Rika's again in GP France Re: Rika's quads for next season I think she can do it...looking at her technical potential, she has the ability to jump high technical elements and not just that but with correct technique. many ladies lose their technical prowess as they go through puberty or aging but if one has a great foundation to begin with and motivation to continue, then its not impossible for the ladies to improve as they grow. I think Rika has that quality. hopefully, Ghislain can help her with it and Yuzu can inspire her. I think she is the total package. But yes, above everything please stay healthy!

awww i wish figure skating is more loved in Spain...actually in any country! I said this to my sis the other day that Figure skating has literally everything I love as a sport and the world should appreciate it more!!

lol what is this pooh madness town slow mo of his handsomeness in the first frame

Since we're on this topic of commentary, I just want to say I wish commentators can praise/comment more on the program components in skaters' programs. In the past when I started watching figure skating because of Yuzu, I loved watching his programs with commentaries especially from B.ESP, CBC, and NBC because they would literally praise Yuzu to the high heavens when he skated clean. But then over time, I've realized there's more to his skating than just those praises. I still like watching with commentary sometimes because it's nice to have others praise him when he skates well. But I also began to realize how sometimes commentary can take away the beauty of his skating when they're being redundant. Also, these mere praises often surround his technical excellence or world records/titles. I wish they can talk more about what makes Yuzu's programs/japanese ladies' so great other than just commenting on his jumps when he executed them flawlessly. Yes, they sometimes talk about how he's a total package but like explain it, go in depth on it. Talk about the speed or positions of their spins, talk about the choreo/composition, the transitions, their turns, their footworks, their interpretation of the music/facial expression, their skating skills, their ice coverage...I wish they'd talk more about this so viewers can learn. Because essentially, I find PCs and TES are codependent in making a program great and balance. That's why we love commentators like Charlie White and Max/Angelo who pretty much dissect the program more accurately and show true appreciation for what the skaters do on the ice. I learn way more over a short span of time listening to their analyses than from all the vague superlatives other commentators say like "beautiful" "the best skater ever". Yes, those are nice to hear when referring to Yuzu as an artist, but talk more about his program itself when he's skating to it.

I'm reading through comments here all day long and I feel blessed to have never listened to T*L commentary. I tend to stop short on watching the videos as soon as I hear invalid commentary about Yuzu.

True, he's like the most animated person I've seen lol so memeworthy

OMGOSHHHH You're too much!!! I'm so done

God bless you!!!

and now

oh she'd loveee Nathan's costume then

I think its because etude is already somewhat similar and you can see Yuzu did the arms movements in his pancake spin. so Otonal costume cannot be too similar since that would just be a repeat of Etude costume

thats why I feel like when Yuzu broke records again say at 340 we'll be seeing other men getting over 320-330 barriers but lbr will those programs ever be Seimei level?

So now Yuzu is breaking record of holding the most records?

I thought Yuna Kim broke 11 WR according to wiki?

Thats another story I didnt want to talk about

Woke up this morning and boy am I not ashamed to say Im happy to not see a new world record

How could a pinky be swollen so long?! I was afraid he got frostbite or something. Praying for healing I slowly just look forward to these cute drawings rather than the actual competition Charlie and Tanith White are two of my absolute favorite commentators. They're giving Max & Angelo a run for their the money

Hey maybe that should be Yuzu's answer next time he got asked the question, "why pooh?"

I will have to go home to look at this but I just want to commend your dedication.

Are you talking about his SP? I actually had to look up the lyrics meaning after this lol I didnt pay attention to it. It seems to have pretty abstract meaning. I think Boyang is just skating to the beats and vibe he got from the music
