Don't worry. The second time I did the quiz, I went with Yuzu as my quarantine partner. I've got 4A space in the living room. But in return, he has to agree to be my muse...

How did I miss that. Anyway the rest of my comments still stand. It's a dreadful way to teach dance

I wonder what choices you have to make to get that one (Alina).

Without looking at the answer, my guess is the one at 0:35-6. And Shoma is at 0:48. Aannnddd I was totally wrong.

The first time I did it, I went with 'Nathan Chen, but he spends the whole time talking about how much he admires Yuzu'. I could listen to that all day, and we'd have something in common . Besides, my kitchen is too small for a 4A, Yuzu would get hurt.

Sorry, but @Paskud specifically posted that as an example of Daniil's choreography. So I have no idea where you're coming from here, but I'm saying that it looks like none of them have a chance to learn any better, so they all think it's amazing.

Heck yeah! And save it for the very last thing he skates in front of judges ever...just as a way of flipping them the bird

Yeah, so I got Stephane's zebra costume. Kind of fitting since that outfit makes me double take to this day. retook the quiz, changed a couple answers, and got Javi's black and white pinstripe outfit with the red and yellow collar - what program was that?

He was singing along the whole time! What a sunshine!

Don't be sorry, our eyes needed cleansing anyway! @SitTwizzle work with me here. I'm not saying that it is that particular group of skaters' first time dancing. I'm saying imagine if the very first thing you ever learned about dancing in your life was Daniil choreography, and then you grew up without knowing any better. It explains so much about the Sambo skaters

That's what i thought too. I made a guess that the interviewer mixed up and conflated a couple of facts and then didn't do a final check before submitting the article.

in this case, I meant 'good' in a relative sense. I can't even figure out what genre of dance it's supposed to be.

Still his highest ever under the +5 system. I think the key takeaway is that Yuzu was finally happy with one of his performances. So now we know that it takes six years of skating a program for it to be up to Yuzu's standards. Given that fact, all the fuss* over him recycling programs seems very inappropriate. Let the man perfect his masterpieces, yo. *in various places such as Twitter

Is this the tune that Sinatra's "My Way" is based off of? It sounds very similar, and My Way is supposedly originally a French song. Incidentally, I could totally see Yuzu doing My Way someday.

Oh Lord. And poor Morisi is right off the beat. The girl in grey is the only one able to make this mess look good. Imagine being a downy young innocent wet-behind-the-ears skating novice and you join this group and this is your introduction to dance.

Can't even picture Yuzu doing Roooooooxxxxxxxxaaaaannnnnnnnneee. While he totally sold me on young Romeo's youthful desperation in love, I simply can't picture him having the kind of emotions that are in Rrrrrrrrrroooooooxxxxxxxaaaaaannnnnnnnneeeeee

Yuzu hasn't done it yet....should we expect it next year?

I just saw a bunch of really short clips of him with bedhead and making eggs. And I can't quite figure out how instagram works...the videos just popped up randomly

I greatly look forward to seeing how this will work out for Samarin. And that's all I'm going to say.

Important thing in that article: Yuzu says he's finally satisfied with one of his skates ( the Chopin), calling it 'the most perfect skate I've ever done'. It's gratifying to see him finally say something like that. And of course the boy is right, that was a perfect Chopin.

Wow, this gets better and better

I think it's run by one! I found 10. Absolutely love the one in the castle. Too funny.

The story of the Robertson, and why they're not common in the US. From Wikipedia: A Robertson, also known as a square[35] or Scrulox[36] screw drive is specified as ANSI Type III Square Center and has a square-shaped socket in the screw head and a square protrusion on the tool. Both the tool and the socket have a slight taper. Originally to make the manufacture of the screws practical using cold forming of the heads,[15]:79–81 this taper provides two other advantages which have served to popularize the drive: it makes inserting the tool easier, and tends to help keep the screw on the tool tip without the user needing to hold it there.[citation needed] Robertson screws are commonplace in Canada, though they have been used elsewhere[15]:85–86 and have become much more common in other countries. As patents expired and awareness of their advantages spread, Robertson fasteners have become popular in woodworking and in general construction. Combination Robertson/Phillips drives are often used in the electrical trade, particularly in device and breaker terminals, as well as clamp connectors. Robertson screwdrivers are easy to use one-handed, because the tapered socket tends to retain the screw, even if it is shaken.[15]:85–86 They also allow for the use of angled screw drivers and trim head screws. The socket-headed Robertson screws are self-centering, reduce cam out, stop a power tool when set, and can be removed if painted over or old and rusty.[15]:85–86 In industry, they speed up production and reduce product damage.[15]:85–86 The internal-wrenching square socket drive for screws (as well as the corresponding triangular socket drive) was conceived several decades before the Canadian P. L. Robertson invented the Robertson screw and screwdriver in 1906 and received the Canadian patent in 1907 (CA103387, U.S. Patent CA103,387A) and US patent 1911 (U.S. Patent 1,003,657) for a manufacturing machine. An earlier patent covering both square-socket- and triangle-socket-drive wood screws, U.S. Patent 161,390, was issued to one Allan Cummings of New York City on March 30, 1875. However, as with other clever drive types conceived and patented in the 1860s through 1890s, it was not manufactured widely (if at all) during its patent lifespan due to the difficulty and expense of doing so at the time.[15]:79–81 Robertson's breakthrough in 1908 was to design the socket's taper and proportions in such a combination that the heads could be easily and successfully cold formed,[15]:79–81 which is what made such screws a valuable commercial proposition. Today, cold forming (by stamping in a die) is still the common method used for most screws sold, although rotary broaching is also common now. Linear broaching to cut corners into a drilled hole (similar to the action of a mortising machine for woodworking) has also been used (less commonly) over the decades. Robertson had licensed the screw design to a maker in England, but the party that he was dealing with intentionally drove the licensee company into bankruptcy and purchased the rights at a reduced price from the trustee, thus circumventing the original agreement.[citation needed] Robertson spent a small fortune buying back the rights, and subsequently refused to allow anyone else to make the screws under license. When Henry Ford tried out the Robertson screws, he found that they saved considerable time in Model T production, but when Robertson refused to license the screw design, Ford realized that the supply of screws would not be guaranteed and chose to limit their use in production to Ford's Canadian division.[37][38][39] Robertson's refusal to license his screws prevented their widespread adoption in the United States, where the more widely-licensed Phillips head gained wider acceptance. The restriction of licensing of Robertson's internal-wrenching square may have sped the development of the internal-wrenching hexagon, although documentation of this is limited. A new variation of the Robertson drive is the Nüvo Drive System, in which the screws are compatible with Robertson drive tools, but the screws have rounded lobes that, when used with Nüvo drivers, "dramatically reduce wobbling and stripping out, enabling single-handed operation".[40] Let me know if you want me to send you one

Well, I feel vindicated that Trusova's former coach has a similar opinion of her current skating as I do. And judging from what Plushy was saying there, he's thoroughly assessed the challenge ahead of him and sounds ready to go work on it. I think it will be interesting to see the result. And my Russian FS drama is that I was insulted by Plush because of an interview on sports.ru. Good enough for me! Revenge poem coming right up.
