For the Satellites who like onesies (For the Satellite who likes golden ruffles) Yuzu does some Ballet training

"Accio costume - incants name of specific costume"

There is a real art to performance costume making, the design, light but durable fabrics, fastenings, embellishments. So many considerations to create a beautiful piece of clothing that doesn't restrict movement yet still is able to project a particular character image. Sstomi Ito, Shizuka Orihara are immensely talented. There was a comment about the crystals, as many of Yuzu's costumes have thousands applied for maximum impact during the performance. Swarovski have invented a revolutionary manufacturing process for creating crystals with all of the scintillation but only half of the weight compared with the original crystals. Yuzu and other skaters, dancers and gymnasts can have enchanting costumes without being as heavily weighed down. A Chinese fabric manufacturer have invented an ultra fine lightweight chiffon/ organza fabric, perfect for floaty ruffles, fabric flowers, butterflies etc I'm very envious of satellites who were able to attend exhibitions where Yuzu's costumes have been on display. I would really enjoy examining the details of these wearable works of art

Ice Sheffield rink has limited spectator seating for 1500, maybe enough without Yuzu. The larger Utilita arena is scheduled to host an ice hockey match Nov 12. Large arena would be needed with Yuzu. No wonder there's organisational issues.

Agreed. Don't want to commit to ticket purchases unless assignments announced

And if Yuzu uses Champery as temporary training base @Geo1 mentioned that he may have the chance to spend time with Ghislain, which is always beneficial. More fantasy skating championship ... Hehehe

Yuzu could stay at Champery and use that as a base to tour around Europe to the comps and not risk jet lag. Flight times are all 3h Switzerland to UK, 4h Switzerland to Finland, (3 h Switzerland to Angers ) Switzerland to Turin 2h. Max time difference -1h UK Of people can play fantasy football league, this is my fantasy skating championship @Yuzurella I concur, seeing as the new ISU president already stated that Korea does not want to step in for CoC, as replacement host die to unviable in terms of cost, there would have to be major inducement for any organisation to agree to host. As I have written elsewhere, every OGM is indisposed. Men's - hiatus/ on a break, Women's ( and silver medallist ) - nation banned, Pairs - COVID travel restriction, Ice Dance - retired OGM from 2014, 2018 all retired Only Yuzu remains as a champion still competing. No disrespect to medallists of silver or bronze stature, but organisers want to say that Olympic Gold medalist is competing Yuzu is THE ONE that everyone wants ISU have already indicated that JSF is not their most important ally, as the VP they voted in is Canadian not the Japanese candidate

Here's a bit more out of the box thinking Ice Sheffield has seating capacity 1500 Utilta arena is bigger but there is ice hockey match scheduled for Nov 12 Is it possible the organisers are trying a work around to secure the larger venue? At this point, the host is most likely Sheffield, but the issue is which arena. Just discussion point, because right now frustration is setting in. Ughh Glad the day was a bit more cheerful with Daily Spread Eagle

I hope that BIS will receive more funding for the GB performance squad. The current yearly funding available to support the skaters is a pittance

Exactly, keeping everyone in suspense is pointless

Twitter knows it won't be able to cope with the traffic. They are just trying to save themselves

Uh Oh NEWSFLASH Prime Minister Pooh warns satellites and inhabitants of Planet Hanyu to take cover now Mt Irene is set to erupt

Does anyone remember waiting for a crumb of programme news before Media day? Time to revive a print run of: The Daily Spread Eagle Planet Hanyu's most read newspaper Warning issued for all satellites around the Planet. Pooh geologists have been monitoring Mt Irene and a worrying increase of activity has been noted Rumblings have been heard from the environs of Mt Irene. Dust and gas could be throw into the upper atmosphere causing disruption to the normally smooth operating conditions for satellites. Risk of reduced concentration, tuning into the ISU website by default and Twitter communication overload Prime Minister Pooh has ushered all of the Jump Ladies into the Palace Throne room to await the arrival of the Ice Emperor and to prepare for an announcement which may herald another important sojourn into the world of international ice arenas. The court seamstresses are working day and night to finish the Ice Emperors wardrobe in time for the sojourn. The court musicians are practising day and night. Pooh Forest bird population have become extremely agitated. Some have even taken up roost in the gardens of the Ice Palace and there are reports of a deafening cacophony of Shu Paa calls made by the flock. The palace Poohs are issuing umbrellas to protect Planet visitors from the swooping birds. All satellites and Planet inhabitants have been advised to eat honey and drink plenty of juice box liquids and to avoid consumption of paprika .

Finland Espoo confirmed fro CoR GP event Other November fixture TBA Maybe John Wilson Blades are putting the finishing touches to the Throne of Blades ( If they need to have golden braid stitched to the velvet seat cushion I will volunteer to do this if it speeds the announcement up )

@baibaiIt's a lovely thread. Lots of positive energy

No updates yet it's 08:05 in CH

Tomorrow the ISU Grand Prix will have confirmed locations for all six events of the series Hope there won't be too much of a wait before the skater assignments will be announced. Exciting, it's like Christmas Eve in July Twitter will be lit up like wildfire methinks

Thank you for posting this lovely, marabou fluffy thread. Nobu's reaction to Ballade, that's how family feel about their loved ones when they have done amazingly well and everyone's been anxious with worry hoping that all the hard work will come together when it matters most

So heartening to hear from Yuzu himself that he is feeling confident about his skating abilities. Glad that he is ignoring the nonsense along the lines of being the "only active skater whose abilities are deteriorating", it was nonsensical and made up and it's good that Yuzu does not believe that ridiculous set of narratives. Yuzu speaks the truth and the viewers can see it when he performs

That is taking a risk on a school day. There will be one queue outside the first aid room later and another queue outside of this physics classroom to view "this impressive man"

A fitting thread for the Ice Emperor

That's amusing Yuzu, Keiiji and cardboard Keiiji, shame they couldn't find the cardboard Yuzu that was used for the announcement of the Olympic team before the PC Olys

Hi Yuzuwinnie "Big Bang Theory" is a comedy series, about a group of friends who are Physicists and Scientists. Dr Sheldon Cooper is a physicist and his girlfriend Dr Amy Ferrer Fowler is a Neurobiologist, they are super intellectual, in the series they make a documentary series called 'Fun with Flags' £80 is about 80-85 Euros, the hotel price went up within a 5h period, following the announcement about Sheffield The street that Yuzu ( plus luggage ) was photo shopped into, looked like some of the streets from the long running British series 'Coronation Street'. The pub featured in Coronation St is called the Rovers Return, so it appeared that Yuzu was going to head there for a pint and a packet of crisps. What flavour do you think Yuzu might like? Cheese and Onion or Salt and Vinegar? or even Roast Chicken? Maybe he doesn't like crisps and is a Roasted Peanut kind of guy

Thank you sharing this. People often say that music is a gift to mankind, that it is one of the universal languages and that music has the power to heal. I hope that people can have fond memories of this beautiful gesture in memory of those who lost their lives or have suffered due to the Great Eastern Earthquake and also of the person who performed this gorgeous work of music

The field looks incredible. The efforts will not be in vain It is really lovely that Sendai is very proud of Yuzu
