i think it's just the continuous impact on landing, and sometimes the jump isn't v perfect... 

i wear an ankle brace when i jump now :'D

(at least with skates you get ankle support, not so much with sneakers haha)

you mean like this kind?

You can, you can. It's just that as soon as I opened the link I felt like I needed to put on my sunglasses  You see? I'm not a colourful person. My wardrobe consists of white, grey and black 

Haha, I’m the same! Chique sport has really nice figure skating clothing, just kinda expensive but I do like them...

Shall share this here because Yuzu appears...

Since we don’t have white wall to occupy us...

Thanks! That's... flashy 

Haha I thought there are options for changing the colour though?

Sorry, changing topics now, and sorry if this is not the right thread. 

Anyone who lives in the UK knows where I could buy leg warmers for skating, the ones with the wider bottom to pull over the skates? My legs always freeze up, it's too damn cold in the ice rink I always go too

 

Or maybe someone knows about a good online shop that ships internationally?

Hmm, maybe try these by Frozen Couture?

i haven't but i feel like i constantly retie my boots whenever i feel the least bit ankle movement haha. and i am too scared to try hard things 

also i haven't twisted my ankle from off-ice jumps but they're often sore when i walk nowadays especially a day or two after doing the jumps >__<

Oh no, why sore? Have you tried icing them? I understand, just the thought of getting injured freaks me out so much, but I know if I don’t get over that fear I’ll never be able to do any jumps from axel and above 😭 So I guess the only way is to do everything possible to prevent injury, and build things up slowly without rushing ourselves...

Sasha’s 3A-3T!

4Lz-3T from Mikhail!

Happy 11M views!!

This is terrible, praying that everyone is safe!!

Omg I hate twisted ankles... happened to me before from skating and it’s healed now but still scares me! Anyone here twisted ankles from skating? 
 

Seriously admire all the skaters for still being able to do quads and all after scary injuries, like Anna and Alina having broken bones, Yuzu’s multiple ankle injuries etc

same, i haven't even tried. too afraid haha.

I wish I started skating as a child, I feel like kids don’t think so much about injuries and just do things   

Sasha’s live interview! There is an interpreter so no need for english subs  

ooo, they used Yuzu’s picture here!

I think Yan Han has an amazing 3A too! Although I heard he stopped doing quads due to injury? 

Wow, this 4A thing really spread like wildfire... I know Yuzu wants it badly, I just hope he doesn’t injure himself trying it.

When he lands his 3A on a hope and a prayer half the time? Yeah, right. 

 

But, even if he does have it, he's not gonna use it any time soon. Since Yuzu has had his ready for so long (at least since before Worlds were meant to be) and just hasn't had a chance to compete, it would be a real jerk move to do it first, and Nate doesn't strike me as that kind of guy. 

 

(also, hi, after lurking since January, I finally speak. nice to meet y'all) 

hello!! Nice to meet you

hmm, honestly I wouldn’t think of it as a jerk move, it’s sports, it’s competition after all, Nathan doesn’t owe Yuzuru anything in that sense. Of course as a Yuzu fan I would hope for Yuzu to be the first to land it, but if Nathan or anyone else lands it first it will be an incredible achievement as well, and I will certainly applaud them! I wonder if Yuzu has caught wind of this rumour, it’s been floating around...
