  1. Exactly. At this point I trust his taste in costumes, too. I'm prepared to llike it all already
  2. Prokofiev's RnJ for SP and Tchaikovsky RnJ for LP :s_tongue
  3. I can live with warhorse as long as he stays true to the style that he has developed... but I am not really worried. I trust in what Yuzu and his team will come up with.
  4. He'd definitely got higher score if he skated later in his group, that's for sure. (I'm talking about FS here.) Just today I've thought that he'd better to skate 4-6th in his group at OG. It's pure luck, so can he has all needed amount of it at OG?.. His score might have been higher for sure but I was thinking about the mental effect Yuzu's skate had on the rest. They all crumbled because Yuzu was just that good. Yuzu might thrive under such conditions but most other skaters don't.
  5. I made a quick translation of this, other will no doubt do a more accurate job later. Showing clips of commentary from Spain, Russia and Italy after his LP performance. Spain "His Majesty Hanyu" Russia "Pooh Rain and 90% of pooh bears are at his house" Italy "Planet Hanyu" of course. At the unveiling ceremony, some fans attending traveled from the States and China to see him. 7:48 Oda discusses Yuzu's popularity at shows. "Usually, gifts are put in the hallway temporarily, but in Hanyu's case it doesn't fit, so it's put in a separate room." Oda also talks about how commentators coined the expression "doing an Oda". "I think my name was mentioned because the skater in question jumped too much." (explanation that jumping the same kind of jump too many times causes the jump to have 0 points attached) "I'm like, wait, how many times have I jumped so far? I get flustered! I get flustered..." Oda and Hanyu are best friends, about what Hanyu's really like, Oda said, "He's such a gentleman! When ladies leave he holds the door for them, or pulls out a chair for them, he's really kind to women." "He doesn't like to eat much. He doesn't eat much, when eating a meal he often says, oh I'm full. I've never seen him eat fried food. He says it's too heavy on his stomach." The last clip is Rafael Arutyunyan asking Hanyu for an autograph and Hanyu being surprised. Thank you!
  6. One what if that is worth considering is- what if Yuzu hadn't skated first?
  7. Wasn't there reports that he tried it along with the 4Lz attempts at WTT? I highly doubt that those reporters at WTT actually can tell the different of Flip and Lutz entry though. now that you say it
  8. which will come first, winning SC/4CC or 4F? I think 4F is still a long, long time coming. He'd do it only for the sake of having a complete quad collection Yeah but they said he didnt land it, and we dont even have a video evidence that it was indeed a 4F We only talked about trying! Back when there were reports I didn't believe any of it, including the 4Lz bits, but now that we actually saw the 4Lz....
  9. Wasn't there reports that he tried it along with the 4Lz attempts at WTT?
  10. Same here! Especially with skaters who rotate in opposite direction, ie Carolina Kostner. Watching CW jumps is still so trippy to me
  11. I also have a problem with left and right, and for that I usually look if the take-off leg is the same as the landing one or not. So that in the split seconde of the preparation of the jump I am not "is it right ? left ?" but just know if it the same as the landing one. That way, even for skater who turn clockwise I am not confused. (I still have difficulty with Lutz and Flip though, but with all these explenation given, I feel I won't have so much trouble from now on) Ahhh yes I try to do that, too but it only works when I'm focused. I loose track very easily... At this point I usually have more of an intuition for it- most of the time I will just know it's a T or a F from how it's set up but it's not a fool-proof method
  12. The Lutz was the easiest jump for me to recognize after the Axel thanks to what jinabee pointed out- It's a bit like the skaters are skating an S from set-up to take-off when attempting a Lz I have difficulties differenciating left and right so the jumps I struggled to differentiate the most were the flips and toeloops. Now I can identify them all right but sometimes I still get confused...
  13. I just want to bring the update on crediting avatars to everyone's attention To provide credit for you avatar go to User Control Panel -> Profile -> Edit Profile. There you can edit the Image credit section for this purpose that will show up under your avatar. Thank you! eta: outdated
  14. I just want to add to the crediting of avatars that we now have a Image credit option that will show up under your Location. You can add and edit it under User Control Panel -> Profile -> Edit Profile in the very bottom. This solves the problem that some users disable signatures.
  15. I'd be in favor of a 4-quad layout with the added 4Lz- it would give him so much room to make up for his mistakes- but he seems pretty set on having 5 quads. Increase in BV seems kind of secondary to Yuzu compared to a few other factors. (Like flow of the program-eg. he put the 3F almost at the end of the first half in H&L and I would also argue raise in difficulty.) I have a feeling he's going to go to 5 quads, the question is more is he going to do it with or without the 4Lz.
  16. I'm coming through with another one. I present to you: eta: sorry to interrupt the convo, keep on going
  17. Sounds weird to me.... There's been so many rumors going around lately but I am still pretty sure the LP is going to be choreographed by Shae-Lynn. I don't see why Yuzu would go back to DW.
  18. This totally makes me want to see RJ1 performed by the current Yuzu
  19. Always nice to see lurkers coming out of their shell here If you feel more comfortable speaking Portuguese please feel free to open a Portuguese thread here-> https://planethanyu.com/forum/8-international-talk/ There should be more Brazillian fans out here! And the Church pretty much the replacement of the invisible posts...
