I open Twitter and the first thing I read is Marin has also decided to change her program music. Wth program changes lol! Maybe her team heard all the feedback re: her tango, and she probably didn't feel too comfortable with it either. But Marin being the one with back-to-back GP assignments, this is another layer of difficulty she will have to deal with. Was it the tango that she said was the piece of music she was waiting till this season to skate to? Or was it Turandot? I wonder what the new piece is she would like to use.

Could they have received feedback immediately after he participated in Skate Detroit? I'm not sure how the Champs Camp feedback system works, but maybe they already received comments from USFS after his summer comp, and advised him to come up with an alternative program for assessment at Champs Camp. From the article where they announced the FP change, it seems they already had the program ready prior to the camp http://web.icenetwork.com/news/2017/08/24/250373458/champs-camp-chatter-zhou-gets-new-free-skate

Oh noes, more bad news... (I hope these are not just rumors, bec it's really bad if they are.)

Yes it is. So now more unsure of what they're planning to show.

That's so sad. I didn't know she was suffering from something like that

Sad news... is it really true? (The article itself doesn't really confirm the news from Julia herself. Maybe my Google translate is wrong?)

Cute!

Not sure either. Maybe they just like to call it "exclusive"?

Yes, Satton so kawaii saving the turtle!

I need to catch up watching it. I was only able to watch the early parts, but then tiredness caught up with me and I fell asleep ^^; But I was able to see this dance by Daisuke, and it really wowed me.

Uhm, is this really confirmed? Is Ashley really ditching La La Land and going back to Moulin Rouge?

This was awesome!

It's really amazing how many people were touched by Yuzu's words of wisdom and courage. And I think everyone, not only those with a similar condition as him, can find something to encourage themselves from his words. I know I did. How can he be such a wonderful person?

The post above is Wakaba's planned layouts, based on the programs she has so far performed. Latest results for Wakaba's FP. ETA: Wakaba's protocols from the Tokyo Summer Skating Competition

Mao, Akiko and Miki in 2003 (anyone recognize the 4th skater?)

Yeah, I just listened to Lynn Rutherford's interview about Champs Camp, and even she couldn't seem to summon up a lot of encouraging things to say about Gracie's condition at the moment. Which is... not a good indication, esp. when she was being all positive and almost all praises for all the other skaters. But yes let's wait and see.

I've already gushed over on the 24Hr TV thread, but I guess I just can't say it enough... That was simply a breathtaking performance I honestly wasn't expecting much since we sort of knew it would be the same program he did with Hiromi Go several years ago. But by golly, was I wrong. As many have already mentioned here, Yuzu has shown us once again how much he's grown, by leaps and bounds and more... my heart almost couldn't handle it lol. I didn't expect I'd be liking this program ever, and now it may have just become one of my all-time faves, if only for the amazing feelings it gave me. And add to this further proof of how much of a wonderful person Yuzu is that this show gave us. It sometimes defies belief that someone like that can really exist. And I could watch this forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever... (Maybe even eternity wouldn't be enough )

Yes, I think so. Hope he recovers soon.

The glaring lights are reflecting off the mesh and making it stand out in the vid. But in normal comp lighting it might not be too obvious. And a lot of detail in the back! It's sparkly!
