Well, I'm a physics associate in medical physics (not a qualified physicist myself, I just do the grunt work of counting electrons and photons for radiotherapy QC...literally). Would be happy to leap to greener pastures but have absolutely no quals for anything in medicine at all...:(

Well someone has to, besides Yuzu and Voronov.

Today, the only thing that kept me from quitting my job in a melancholic fit of despair was the thought of seeing Yuzu at Worlds, knowing I'm still in the process of paying for the tickets. My boss owes Yuzu big time, and will never know it. Just needed to share that.

That's not what I'm worried about

...and if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't even remotely be contemplating planning tours of Kelowna for strangers from the Internet right now!

No, Pooh-san does not deserve this.

The simplest explanation is that they're not too bright, so I'm going with that one.

Rappin' in a yukata, such a bad boy!

Aww, Toshl is sooo cute! The Planet should adopt him as an honourary satellite, he outdoes us all...

Glad to be of help!

I'm pretty sure that Yuzu could rap RunDMC in these blog entries and people would still go buy the product, so don't feel too sorry for them!

Maybe someday he'll do it. Someday when he's not busy trying to capture Nessie.

I'd love to see him do On Ice Perspectives! Imagine seeing Yuzu skating from the POV of being on the rink with him!

5 - 10 minutes on his hair? That's 4.5 more minutes than I do! My hairstyle is best described as ' not tangled and not in my eyes', LOL!

Hanyuconomy at work!

They have to fit those thigh muscles! Truthfully, I'm not sure I'd want to be Yuzu's tailor. That tiny waist combined with those muscular legs would make trousers a real challenge, especially in the kinds of materials suits get made of.

That sounds like a dad joke.

Yes yes. But Yuzu already has Lady Lutzifer back and is working on 4F as far as we can tell. I have no, zero, nada, doubts that he can achieve those, and then 4A. So once he has 4A, he'll have all 6 quads to choose from. At that point, he will be able to vary his programs as needed (i.e. according to ice conditions) picking and choosing from among the jumps in order to ensure his programs always score the maximum BV possible at any given time, with less risk of injury. At least, that's what I am guessing his strategy will become. So, he'll be unbeatable because he will be able to compensate better for the times he's at a disadvantage. Plus, if he makes a program meant to show off 4A, guaranteed it'll be spectacular in all the other aspects too, and score high no matter what. That's just how he rolls.

Absolutely. The skaters who I think might possibly have a chance at all of catching him, are all people who currently have major weaknesses to overcome. They've got a long way to go.

Isn't that what most of them are already doing anyway? It's only the few and the proud who are trying to be 'total package' skaters.

Seriously, though, once Yuzu has the 4A mastered and up to his standards in a program, there'll be no catching him. All the other skaters might as well just go home at that point.

And this, my friends, is how you objectively quantify a 'subjective' sport. ISU take note!

As someone who has legitimately played with dolls for a large part of my life, I'd like to point out that it is actually a pretty normal thing to do with them. Particularly if they're attached to a stick like this one is. I'd have been curious to see how it was put together and flipped Dolly over too.
