It's really special to me that Yuzu's gold is directly above Alexandre Bilodeau's. Long story short, Bilodeau is good people and his medal win was very emotional. Two good people in a row there.

I understand the frustration, but NBC's coverage of figure skating has always been abysmal. And the commentators will say any old thing to fill in airtime. It's wiser to watch skating elsewhere, and save yourself the aggravation

Ahhh don't give him Ideas!!!

figure skating is definitely one of those sports where everything is fine...until it isn't. Like, even as a lifelong, but very novice-level, skater as I am, you can go out on the ice a thousand times with no problem, and on the thousand and first, one tiny moment of inattention, one unlucky step, and you could fall and break your wrist or crack your head and get a concussion, just from doing plain old stroking, and very slowly at that. Someone skating at Yuzu's speed and doing the things he does on the ice regularly? It's a high-wire act, make no mistake about it.

I did not, but good catch!

So here is the music video Roman shot. The singer is Roman's friend Toy Noah, who also skates and currently works for Disney On Ice: Both the video and the song are much higher quality than I was expecting.

Well-deserved, in my opinion. And I don't even like baseball.

About Yuzu withdrawing from Rostelecom: Just keep healing, Yuzu. Get that ankle back in good shape before worrying about anything else. And we`ll see you when you`re ready to get back on the ice.

Well it could be worse, it could be in her knee, which would probably have ended their season completely

Am I wrong for hoping the man just shuts up? Don't talk about your skaters that way in the press!

I hope it's not too serious and she recovers quickly

Knowing Roman, I'm sure it will look gorgeous and make us laugh.

And now for something completely different...

Aww Nam...

That's the best part!

I like the 3rd one, but it's not Yuzu's style. I could see him doing #4 though

OH MY GOSH I LAUGHED OUT LOUD

I think so. The attempts he made at GPF Torino, you could totally see it was one extra rotation.

Yuzu ever-so-casually answered an interview question about how his 4A was going by saying he could now jump 4F and the whole thing was in the NHK Cup pamphlet. So some fanyus shared on weibo and Twitter, and here we are in Frost Cuckoo Land. Guys, do you suppose the reason he learned to jump 4F was because 4A was being such a challenge that he switched to working on 4F for a break? So basically out of frustration?

I feel like these would do for the violin version, but if he's using piano the effect of the music is different. So I can't wrap my head around the red. Maybe something Swanyu-esque?

Thank you for the perfect case study of how fanyus lose their minds! Seriously, Yuzu, how we supposed to stay sane?

I like it, but I think Yuzu proved with white LGC that there's a risk of disappearing against the white boards and the white ice. Maybe if it was more gold than white.? The music is so playful that I'm thinking bouncy pastels and twinkling blues and greens.

This person put it best: So, what do you think he'll wear?

Having listened to both versions (piano, and violin) of Rondo, I personally think the piano suits skating better. And when I listen to the piano version, it brings to mind images of a playful kitten exploring the house and getting into mischief, accidentally knocking things over, and teasing the dog. A role which I can easily imagine Yuzu portraying on ice - it would be interesting and delightful if his program turned out to be like that.

But of course.
