  1. It looks like Yuzu put two hands down and Patrick only one, so maybe that's it? I am not well-versed in how the judges decide things so maybe someone else with more knowledge than me could weigh in
  2. Also, if you're ever curious about an event's schedule, it's usually posted on the ISU web page for the competition, or on the host skating federation's web page
  3. I seem to recall there was more time between them. I mean, most skating competitions have events on consecutive days, but for big events like the Olympics they often alternate disciplines (eg, dance RD& women's SP one day, pairs & mens SP the next, then back to women & dance, etc) so that there's a full 24 hours between events for individual skaters, but a lot depends on the broadcast schedule, too, especially if it's going to be shown live. I think the issue with Sochi was that the turnaround time between the SP and the free skate was less than 24hrs. But it was also the first Olympics of the so-called quad revolution, where men were attempting multiple quads per program, and the scoring at that time didn't penalize jump errors the same. So men were jumping in a quite YOLO way and, predictably, missing a lot of the attempts. Lots of popped jumps, lots of splatting onto the ice.
  4. To put that skate in perspective, go watch the whole Sochi men's final, if you can find it. It had more crashes and blow-ups than a demolition derby. And the competitors who managed to skate clean all had low scores coming out of the short program so couldn't really catch up. Yuzu's skate was as good as he could do on that day and it was enough to win. And that's how the sport works. It wasn't "trash", which would imply he didn't try his best. He put in the effort and deserved the win, it was just a rough day on the ice for everyone

  18. Yes but he's got a unique texture and colour that can't be replaced. Sometimes it's not about being a 5-octave virtuoso, it's about having the exact right touch for the song
