4A (almost there) was mindboggling. But holy shit the 3A-3Lo. Such a pretty jump. Ganbatte Yuzuru on your Nationals! May your dreams come true.

I’ve been away. But I needed to come back here when I heard the news. Get well soon Yuzu. We’re with you

It would have been great to see Yuzu and Boyang train together at TCC and pushing each other to be better. Ah well.

how are we here already? Not ready

Stay safe, everyone in the vicinity, and of course our Sendai boy. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Happy 2021 to all satellites!! While 2020 has been a turbulent year for so many, I’m glad that we were able to celebrate Yuzu’s triumphant and glorious comeback and thankful that the Planet gave us a safe and fun place to follow and marvel over his exploits. Here’s wishing Yuzu and all of you a better, healthier 2021.

Agree. I don’t think the Ina Bauer added much to the program. The last spin too didn’t seem to match the music with the exception of the raising of hands to the sky to the last note of music. I wonder if he could end with a jump ie 3A similar to Beautiful storm. Just to add what I love about the program: The middle portions including the step sequence are beautiful and languid. And the dramatic pause in the middle where he covers his face and then raises his hand? Absolutely gorgeous

I love love love LMEY. It could be cos the song brings back fond memories and the rock genre is up my alley. But I also feel the program works structurally and the choreo brings out the music accents well especially from 3A onwards. H&E is a potential masterpiece and I love it too but in a different way. I’m glad he’s not winded skating H&E. He was well within the limits of his endurance and stamina. BV considerations aside, the jumps matched the musical ebbs and flows, especially the seamless fluid 4S - 3A2T - 3Lo series of jumps. I do see however some stretches where the choreo could be enhanced/ padded up. This seems more like an issue due to lack of face to face practice time w SLB. I hv no probs with the music (I’m Asian and used to this kind of contemplative BGM in martial arts historical epics). But I do think the choreo could be polished, to do his intentions and the music justice

He mentions he wasn’t able to jump presumably quad loop and sal for a while, thereby necessitating front-loading the program. I think there was a separate interview that mentioned he was in a not so good state in October. Does anyone have further information on what happened then? Did the media provide clarification on what exactly happened to him during that time?

Thank you so much for the much needed context; it gives his comments added significance. He is clearly aware of his own role and influence and how he wants to channel it for the greater good. What a wonderful person. His parents must be so proud

The step sequence is Fiyah! My favorite part (for now) of his SP. I’m sure I’ll find something else to love later tho

Trending in Singapore too. Mr Worldwide

Merry Xmas and Happy Holidays everyone! All the best to Yuzu later on, and us satellites too. We’ll get through it together

Better than nothing. But someone to provide timely advice at the boards on skating matters would be so much better. And it’s 2 brand new programs at that. Aargh I’m worrying already

I really hope he has someone with him, if not his coach.
