Yuzu with the tip of his nose covered in that cream is just precious!

I guess Seimei is mainstream among juniors now

It’s already November 19th in Russia, so... Happy 20th Birthday, Evgenia Medvedeva!

Oh dear, this looks deliciously embarrassing and awkward. Poor Brian!

that looks comfy, Yuzu!

I take it that this weekend we also have the Japanese Junior Championships in our menu? Please, if someone can, keep us informed how things are going there.

yes. at Rostelecom Cup today, I suppose.

I am going to neither, but I’d love one...

Has On Ice Perspective video gone?

I don’t think so. But Ari is first and foremost a businessman, so he has profit in mind too.

Listened to a bit of IceTalk podcast and hey, we Fanyus got a nice mention there! Kudos to those of us who, according to Nick McCarvel, made Skate Canada special by warmly embracing every skater’s performance!

Right after the Pyeongchang Olympics. Not before.

The idea of him needing to qualify for Nationals is ridiculous.

Zakaryan was interviewed about his “innovation of the gala” - it can be found here. https://rsport.ria.ru/20191028/1560262138.html the quote concerning Yuzu is this Translated shortly: he thinks figure skating in Japan might get less popular, so he want Yuzuru Hanyu to stay in the sport as long as possible. When Yuzu get Rostelecom Cup GP, around 5000 Japanese (sic) fans come after him - though that figure might be even bigger. They book hotels, buy tickets, hire interpreters... No other Japanese athlete has and has ever had the same commercial popularity with fans. Not even Mao Asada. That’s why he wants Yuzu to stay healthy and prospering. He’s worshipped by all show managers of the world, him and Japan

Well, if anyone else gets it, it’s going to look stupid. Not that it doesn’t look stupid already!

Read the nominations and... weep! https://skatecanada.ca/2019/10/isu-skating-awards-premieres-at-the-isu-world-figure-skating-championships-2020-in-montreal/

Sota ... I was hoping for you!

It’s because he’s too busy with his studies.

Ok, there’s the reason. Too hard combining studies and training for GP

Can we have Aymoz? Please? That would be an interesting set!

So far no explanations, but I am afraid so. The field of men is getting thinner. So out of top six, two are out with injuries/illnesses/whatever, one is out of contention. Who does it leave us with? Nathan, Yuzu (touch wood) and Shoma? And who else?
