somewhat off-topic here, but I've always wondered how this came about: in Japan, the word 'pudding' often seems to refer specifically to crème caramel, whereas the English word itself can refer to a whole class of desserts made with milk, eggs, sugar, and flavouring. Does anyone know why - why crème caramel ?

And here I was, about to say 'at least people aren't complaining that Jason is turning too Canadian ' - LOL! Poor Brian. It must absolutely suck to be the kind of coach that he is, and have people slandering him this way all the time. Anyway, for the record: multiculturalism is one of Canada's strongest values as a country. We're literally built on the idea that anyone can come here, keep their originating culture, and still make a happy life for themselves here. It's literally un-Canadian for a Canadian coach to try and turn a foreign skater training here away from expressing their own culture. Like, we just don't think that way.

Argh. When she even said at the at the time that the song was one she always wanted to do. granted, the first costume was not her cup of tea but she at least gave it a go. Anyone would think there was something inherently wrong and bad about becoming a little Canadian, the way people go on. And do these 'fans' not read any of Orser's interviews? He always makes it 100% crystal clear that he and his team respect and support their skaters' choices. Orser is the kind of coach that enables a skater become fully themselves on the ice, as opposed to dictating every single thing and stamping out carbon-copy athletes with no sense of their own identity.

This!!! This, this, this!!! It's entirely possible to appreciate and enjoy a performance and music that are totally new and foreign to you. The understanding of the background and cultural milieu can always come later and enhance your enjoyment after the fact. Which is why I get so annoyed by people in official capacity in FS sneering at performances that are out of the mainstream.

And he'll have had time to practice it by then so... In any case, I think the real reason it's in the choreo is just to make us smile and laugh, in which case, objective already achieved, so it's fine with me even if he leaves it as is.

Very true. However, I think Yuzu prefers killing us with eye contact and a wicked smile.

Perhaps Pooh-san is secretly the guardian of the 🍑

Ghislain is giving the camera the staredown in that middle picture like he knows what we're all thinking, LOL!

His backside surely deserves a medal all its own

I can easily demonstrate booty-wiggling, but, unlike with Yuzu, ain't nobody on the Internet want to see that!

Excuse you all, but how dare you lot start a discussion of Yuzu's booty-shaking without me present? I HAVE THIRS..er...SERIOUS THOUGHTS TO CONTRIBUTE!!! Namely, that Yuzu's lack of gusto while performing said booty shaking is clearly due to his prolonged isolation...without outside feedback, he has simply forgotten how wild fans go for his sexy moves, and therefore he's lost his oomph. We shall have to remind him somehow. He needs to hear our screams again, satellites! Like so: WOO-HOO! YYYYYEEAAHHH!!! GO YUZU, YOU SEXY THANG!!! SHAKE IT LIKE A MILKSHAKE!!!@

Have you seen 2019 SCI PW yet? Nearly burned the arena down, it was so 🔥

Can I suggest using the 3A landing from his Stockholm Hana Wa Saku, too? It's so amazing and you can see his 100% textbook landing position so well.

Twitter is a toxic waste fire at almost all times. For some reason verbal barbarity is always the order of the day there. You're not the only one who finds it draining.

Agreed.

Someone made a great Yuzu edit using Hope World:

Yeah! It seems like a natural comparison honestly...

You and me both! It's so distressing the way people speak to each other on some sites.

Someone decided the world needed to see Yuzu as Cathedrals: The second cathedral they mention - the one compared to Ballade - is the seat of the Archbishop for my archdiocese and a church I have stood in many times. Now I will look at it in a different light. Incidentally my own church (which is not this one) would probably make a good R&J 1 or R&J 2. Or both.

Argh. A pox on trashy divas. @hananistellata Agree with you there. Being a member of a minority group does not give anyone a pass to bash a member of a different minority group.

He didn't land it though. He almost did. 'Landing' means securely on one foot with a running edge, not falling. So when Yuzu says he hasn't landed 4A yet, what I take that to mean is that he's still crashing to the ice at the end,and falling over. It hurts just thinking about it.

he said he needs 1/8 more rotation to be able to land it (not landing it clean, just landing it). Think how long he's been working on this puppy to get to this point. I doubt he'd get the extra 1/8 rotation within the time from Worlds to WTT to make 4A landable.

or maybe they got a pass because they're the Olympic hosts? Not going to lie, I wish Canada would also withdraw, but it's a chance for the skaters to earn some money, too. And they probably need it.

If he does it at WTT.... I'm not ready. but from the sounds of things, 4A isn't ready either, so.
