A couple of crucial saves in Yuzu's career. The quad Salchow and the 3Lz-Euler-3S combination in the 2014 Saitama Worlds free skate.

 

Chris Howarth re the 4S: "Wow! How in "how" he hung onto that?" And during the replay: "Take a look at the 4S at the beginning of this program, cleanly landed, and how he stayed on his feet... I mean that is the measure of the skill of this guy. Look at it, the angle of his skate there. A lesser man would have been on his right ear."

 

Chris Howarth re the 3Lz-Euler-3S combination: "Oh no! That should be 3S!... How he did that I have no idea!"

 

Yeah, Saitama R&J and Helsinki Origin were CatZuru mode from start to finish. These two programs alone would have provided enough content for a whole video 

Actually, I wanted to add the 4S, too, but somehow forgot to cut it. It's funny, because the 3A+3T combo was from that performance, too LOL 

 

EDIT:

I just realized that The Weeknd, singer of Blinding Lights, is Canadian and was born and lives in Toronto.

I wonder, if that's just some funny coincidence or a hidden "I love Canada" tribute by Mr Galaxy Brain

Yes, I wondered about that. I thought that it wasn’t like you to miss something so obvious. @Henni147 you have too many things going on in that brain of yours!

I'd love to think that, but it's probably more like, eventually the whole world passes through Toronto....

The Weeknd also called out The Grammys for their self congratulatory ways, old school, establishment behaviour, and said he will never attend or allow himself to be nominated.

Hi everyone, where can I find an English translation of yuzu's thesis?

To be clear, that is not his thesis but an article in an academic journal which summarizes the first part of his thesis.  As far I know, his full thesis is not yet made publicly available by Waseda U.

Of course he did. He was one of the top selling artists of the year. That should have counted for something and it did not, apparently, to the Grammy committee. He wasn't the only artist they screwed over...don't get me started. But the Weeknd is in good company. Rock acts and Canadian musicians have been snubbed and screwed by the Grammys for years. We all complain about the ISU here but they're amateurs to compared to some awards granting committees. 

 

Speaking of pointless and cliquey awards, I see Max Parrot got the Laureus this year. 

Some further details about THAT incident

 

 

 

The more info comes out, the more questions I have, regarding the logistics, COVID-19 protocols, medical protocols and capacity and so on of the cursed event. 

 

But, well

I see the Golden Globes is also getting pressure to change their traditional ways.  Apparently, the Hollywood Foreign Press has no black journalists!!  So, ISU should not feel singled out when ISU is called out for antediluvian and corrupt judging.
