I have to be honest on this one: I would much prefer Chopin 3.0 to LGC heading into Pyeongchang 

And for sure Chopin will have some new choreography parts... and rhe casual viewers will love it anyway.

 

I've asked before if COC 2014 was the only time he skated the original Chopin choreography before changing it, but didn't he also skate at ice shows prior to COC? Anyone have any links to videos of that? I assume the ice show choreo was the original one (though he took out a walley before the 3Lz3T combo, yeah?)

I have to respectfully disagree with that. The choreography was beautiful especially the part from the Ina Bauer onwards (the changes in levels ending in the Besti squat with a torso contraction kill me). For me, the problem was Yuzu was given it a year too early.

I like R&J 2 too, but it's nowhere near my top 3 Yuzu program (even free skate only)

i just want to say how much i hate the current news about the retiring golf player... 

Well I just want healthy Yuzuru in Olympic season. If that means he will skate Chopin 3.0 for Sp and 4.0 for FS, I'm 200% fine with it

I am a ball of sad. I had such high hopes that he would go to SC... Now with these news of repeating SP i am starting to think he won't go to Milano and that means i will never get to see him live 

 

Cheer up and stay positive!

 

I am sure that Yuzuru has very good and valid reasons for picking Chopin Ballade No. 1 as his Olympic season short program, if this is true. We have to trust his judgment. He may very well surprise us with some neat changes in the program and I am looking forward to seeing what his costume will look like. In any event, there is nothing we can do about it.

 

You may have a chance to see Yuzuru at the 2018 Worlds in Milano or at the 2018 Grand Prix Final in Vancouver, Canada (where I live – such a beautiful city!) I have a feeling that he will continue competing even if he wins his second Olympic gold medal. He will still be young and has so much more to offer!

Any advice for a poor soul whose Flashplayer keeps on crashing for that streaming?

i think he'll at least continue until worlds 2019? since they're held in Japan?

It is really funny how this thread is turning into commentary on the Japanese morning news.. What is Yuzuru doing to us

open two windows, resize so you can see the two windows at the same time, don't touch the stream window until mezamashi ends

But for that he would have to do the Grand Prix Series and there's no guarantee that he will do that, right? :<

Me neither to be honest but if we are talking about just the choreography and excluding execution, then I have to give credit where credit is due. I can see the potential of it skated clean with the emotion Yuzu projected in R&J1.
