sweetwater Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Good to hear that he's recovered now. Since last November I had trouble watching any video of his performance until the end because I was scared to think how far I could be from the reality while watching his past performances, but thanks to Javi, I can finally watch the videos of his performances without feeling sad or uneasy. Thank you, @xeyra, for sharing the news and thank you, @Yatagarasu, @Hydroblade for translating Javi's comment! Link to comment
Katt Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Well, Frank Caroll just doesn't like Yuzuru. I think Rohene Ward made the same statement in 2015 too. Its not a big deal, that's their opinion and it won't affect on how most people's view on him. Just read Stephan's quote twice and you'll feel better :'D Link to comment
Anony Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Ah... Frank Carroll... one of few prominent FS figures I've mentally blacklisted. In all seriousness though, don't take anything he says seriously. He's just another old nationalist with no understanding of the concept of modesty and respect. Basically what I'm saying is, don't listen to him, listen to Swiss king, Stephane instead. Link to comment

Poor Gracie went to Frank and that's where her big jumps went to die... Link to comment
liv Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I'm so glad Yuzu is under the radar and there are no new statements from him or his people or anything else. He's the mystery right now that no one has seen (javi doesn't count) and trying to figure out how to compete against an invisible mystery can be difficult in many different ways, including psychologically. I, for one, certainly hopes he makes none of his normal statements when he arrives at an airport for competition ie. "i'm in perfect condition." Maintain the mystery and that works on the psyche of others... and at the Olympics it can often be a mind game. All eyes will be on him in practice. No surprise about fans finding out his bus route to TCC in Toronto, it doesn't have throngs of people everywhere other than the usual places and times...but I bet he still has his anonymity when doing other things beyond the rink.... although I do think as the years go by that he is noticed more and more... ie. the airport pics this year The article was fine. For people starting to get interested in the Olympics who want to know the major players, I thought it did a good job of hitting the major points of his history and global impact on the sport. I would definitely think, hmm, who is this interesting fellow? and he would stick in my mind as I was anticipating the men's competition in PC. Link to comment

The way he treated her was awful, ESPECIALLY knowing she's at her most fragile moment. Anyway, end of rant, sorry for that Link to comment

They would not even need that clue, honestly. Yeah, I was surprised they left It too, but he wasn't *Yuzuru HANYU!! * back then. Doubt they expected people would travel there and try to find him.

Really late to reply but woah that was one empty competition, then. 😂 Link to comment
