But that's not really what we've seen so far...a lot of bad landings are getting negative GOE or even UR calls...

Yup. IMO it was crazy overscoring, and I think the changes that have been made to scoring since then are going to make this year's Worlds an entirely different affair

The men's comp at WC18 was something of a disaster. I don't remember anyone really going 'clean'. Except for Kazuki's clutch performance securing Japan's 3 spots, most of it was

But of course. For the King of skating is also the King of trolling.

Or just jumping 4A. For all we know, his ankle could be fully healed. My money's on 4Lo coming back, though.

How about his murderface at the end of Ballade? It's seriously lacking from our emoticon selection . I refer you to this link for image:

Plus, there's something about it that just seems to state the essence of Yuzu as a competitor. The whole in-your-face rock attitude. It always makes me think of Daisuke's quote that Yuzu is the King.

Not sure if Yuzu's quite ready to unleash that particular firestorm on the world...just imagine the frenzy it could cause.

Hey! It's not like I discriminate! I like white LGC too. It just makes me sad because I could have seen it in person, if I had only realized my fanyu destiny in time...:(

I knew LGC had to be in there somewhere! The Purple Pants of Sin never fail! R&J1 is another good one though.

Given how much he seems to have bowled you over, it has to be Let's Go Crazy.

All these Hanyu tuxedo fan arts have me knocked dead. It's said that a tux is perfectly designed to show a man's physique off to best advantage...with Yuzu that would go double.... Technically speaking some of those outfits are morning suits, but who cares? They look great!!

Wow, they must all have fallen in love with him from that description! I would have

All will be well...with this Laureus thing, Yuzu's gotten his obligatory silver...or metaphorical equivalent, anyway. So yeah, Worlds will be just fine.

That's right, she's a fanyu, eh? Well, look at it this way: now she can be our agent on the inside.

Gotta agree. Golf isn't exactly the world's most demanding sport....even if a golfer comes back from an injury, so what? Big deal. I thought for sure it would have been McMorris. Objectively speaking, he's the one who had the greatest distance to cover, in the shortest time, in his comeback. But there are a LOT of golfers on the board of the Laureus. Well it was fun while it lasted...

So, who actually won? McMorris?

Phew! That's quite the layout. Meanwhile, somewhere in the night Yuzu's saying "Hold my beer..." (Not literal beer) and making plans...

Which is great, however what I was wondering is, if someone were to plan a program to get the absolute maximum points possible in an SP, how high can they go? What's the most points that can be gotten, full stop?

Is that a score that's even possible? Anyone know what the max score under this new system might be?

Gotta hand it to that app...it may vary wildly at guessing Yuzu's age but at least it's consistent in its estimation of his gender.

How long do you figure it took Yuzu to teach Javi Raya to do that fingers to the eyes thing correctly? Also, happy first anniversary of the double gold, Yuzu! Your achievement is all the more unique for the fact that it gave so many millions of others so much happiness as well.

So glad to see him, but...did anyone else wonder, like I did, whether Yuzu had even heard of the Laureus before he got nominated? The award is new to me, so it's not out of the realm of possibility that he wouldn't have heard of it before either.

If it weren't for Yuzu re-introducing me to watching FS, I wouldn't have had any stress relief for the past three months when I badly needed it. But figure skating ( and Yuzu videos) was there for me and I'm grateful.
