    Very happy to see a new video from Yuzu and hear his voice  <3

    Sorry, off-topic (in view of the current excitement) but don't know where else to post: 

    HELP !  My memory is failing me :shame:

    I'm almost 'desperate' to retrieve two competition videos with very enthusiastic 'special' commentary after the end of the performance:

    1) Max Ambesi saying (in Italian ofc) : "Welcome to planet Hanyu - inhabitant: one, he alone."

    2) English commentary, man and woman ; woman says: "I swear he's not human, he's half robot (?) and half alien ..."

     

    Thanks in advance for any helpful tip  :smiley-angelic001:

    In this video Max I think Max is mentioning the first time Planet Hanyu

    Yuzu spoke about this whilst showing some of his notebooks, calculating potential scores for the various programmes. He also mentioned in an interview about how he had once missed a jump or jump combo as a youngster and then repeated the jump which caused loss of marks due to the Zayak ruling. Yuzu vowed never to make the same mistake again. He and Nanami sensei tried to come up with a strategy in order to avoid this is future. During H and L Yuzu said that he had to make rapid calculations in his head about what jump to put into the programme in order to bring his score back up whilst avoiding a Zayak, Yuzu faltered on a jump and could not complete one of his combos. No doubt going over potential possibilities using his notes and an app would help to ensure that the mistake was not repeated.

    Inevitably humans make errors, failing to learn from a mistake is a wasted opportunity. Yuzu is intelligent to recognise this and create a tool for the purposes of both his own records and for learning

    Interestingly Javi also spoke of having lost marks during a comp for a Zayak, probable that many skaters have also done this

     

    edit typos, the letter d seems to be causing me some problems today!

     

    Didn’t Javi loose the bronze medal in Sochi because of such a mistake?

    With Yuzu’s recent visit to the TCC and a formal closure to the most important chapter of his life, to completely understand the significance of the present, one must look at the beginning, when Yuzu first came to Brian.

     

    For new Fanyus, if you have not had the chance to watch the 2012 NHK documentary, ‘Spirits of the Athletes’, I would highly recommend that you do. You cannot fully appreciate who Yuzu has become without knowing who he was.

     

    I have watched this documentary countless times and never tire of it.

     

    This English dubbed version is in the Planet’s video archives. 

     

    Thank you very much for recommending this documentary. I watched it this evening and was captivated!
