  1. I feel so happy for Yuzu, Shizuka, and their beloved Ice RInk Sendai Here's to hoping more Sendai babies will dominate in the FS world with the help of the newly renovated ice rink!
  2. Of course his suggestion has to do with the acoustics..
  3. This.... is not going to end well...
  4. This was a gem and I love this interview dearly but he also didn't answer the question
  5. No....bu....
  6. I think it's more of a 'which program is easier to get at first glance' and that's where Javi excels (ex. Chaplin choreography to Chaplin music or Elvis moves to Elvis music). In a way, Shoma too... while Shoma doesn't really play characters, he sorta is the character since the way he expresses his programs all have a similar feel/vibe to it. With this, I feel like most judges already have a preconceived notion of what a skater and their style is so when they go outside the box it's always a gamble on whether it might be appreciated or not (RIP LGC). This is why I think versatility, which is Yuzu's strength can also be his weakness sometimes. Each of his programs and the way he interprets them is different from each other. Even something that he's repeated... say Chopin, all 3 versions while they have similarities have a completely different feel to them.
  7. Can't think of any performances off the top of my head.. I'll get back to you when I can
  8. Marine Zueva mentions Patrick Chan in a new article "Figure skating is 50% sport and 50% art" Chiddy.......
  9. Get well soon Brooklee!
  10. Awwwww...
  11. Daisuke looking healthy!
  12. Tanaka Nobu being anxious about the newly out Ice Jewels Vol 07. So cute! Google translate : It came ~ ~. Ice Jewels 7! Now, let's see inside. It's an extra page, the photos have increased considerably and I'm looking forward to it. But I am still anxious. Kuu ~~~~ What can I do? Aaaaaaaaw.... Yuzu must be so happy. His beloved Ice Rink Sendai
  13. Your reaction coincides perfectly with your avatar Re: Yuzu and IN. I do think Max & Angelo came up with this statement in relation to casual viewers or if we judge in the moment of the performance (if not then ). Honestly, there are a LOT of subtle movements and choreography in Yuzu's programs that you can get only after watching it countless times. It's not an in your face choreography that's very easy to get and that requires little understanding of the background of the program. I think that's why Javi gets a lot of praise for IN - he's good at portraying characters (although sometimes they're too alike) and it's easy for the judges to 'get' the program as opposed to a more lyrical program like H&L (and this is why we have warhorses). This is probably one of the reasons Seimei was chosen as well (besides the fact that it's a magnum opus). As Uncle Kurt once said about Seimei, he didn't need to know the background of the story or the character to appreciate the program.
  14. Probably. I don't follow any other winter sports to be honest.
  15. I guess this would be Yep! He's competing in Pyeongchang! From NBC4i
  16. Chris Reed was there for Vancouver and Sochi... How fast time flies....
  17. I think that would be Noriaki Kasai, ski jumper, at 45 years of age (!!!!!!). He's the guy Yuzu machine-gun talked to during the garden party to meet the Emperor and Empress of Japan
  18. While I love that photoshoot it's a bit bittersweet to me because I think a lot about how Yuzu wasn't actually able to attend/celebrate the coming of age ceremony because he was in hospital and in pain
  19. The attention to detail...
  20. Korean Ranking Competition. This youtube channel has practice fancam videos (the quality of Korean fancams are amazing). Young You FS Eun Soo SP
  21. Awww.... I assume he's doing the Coming of Age ceremony because he's turning 20 this December right? They grow up so fast....
