New Shae-Lynn Bourne interview from the latest Quadruple Axel magazine, automatically translated with OCR and deepL. My OCR had to capture the text from a not-perfect screenshot, I just hope there are not too many mistakes in it. And as always, I don't speak Japanese and this is not a proper translation. 

There are some more details about Roncapu in this interview, so I really hope we will get a better translation soon.

Thank you so much for this translation. It sounds really good considering it's an automated translation. It's amazing what modern technology is capable of nowadays.

 

I'm so happy that Shae-Lynn has been working together with Yuzu for such a long time. On top of the absolute masterpieces they created together, Shae-Lynn seems to really understand him as a person, an artist, and an athlete. It's obvious how much she appreciates Yuzu and everything he has contributed to the sport of figure skating. :tumblr_m9gcraReGL1qzckow:

Thank you so much, this interview is simply beautiful and full of love and respect. Shae-Lynn seems to be a wonderful person and I am only happy that Yuzuru has this kind of person working with him. 

 

Also - I guess I'm not the only one replaying Rondo Capriccioso now.

Thank you very much birnasan for the translation of Shae-Lynn's interview. It is propbably the best interview about Yuzu & Rondo and TTCT I have seen so far.

I was totally fascinated about Shae-Lynn's story about Yuzuru's story about the Rondo and TTCT and what they mean to him. They were so beautiful stories demonstrating how deep and intensive experience skating is to him. I think that's why we have irrevocably fallen for him and his skating:heartpound:

What an interesting and wonderful thing to read this afternoon! Thank you so much. I've been thinking a lot about Yuzu and his connection to music lately and formulating a post in my head and some of Shae-Lynn's comments really added to the things I've been pondering. And yes I immediately went and watched Rondo!

Thank you so much for the translation! It’s an amazing, insightful interview.

ugly midnight bawling because of Shae-Lynn's interview:sadPooh: the good kind of bawling thankfully, tho Beijing will always bring mixed feelings and a (big) part of bitterness and heartbreak.

thank you @birnasan for bringing the interview, the translation really does look pretty good (prely form a "what I can understand form it POV of course, i cna't really say anyhting about accuracy), tho I'm sure fantranslators will be working on it in the following days:tumblr_inline_n18qrbDQJn1qid2nw:

I'm so moved by Shae's word, and by how she talks about her work with Yuzuru and the way they collaborate. Also, how she fully supports his choices! As we know, not many have understood what Yuzu was goign for and why, so it's always good to know that people close to him were "in his corner".

Truly, the latest interviews by Jeff, Ghislain and now Shae... I'm so thankful Yuzuru could meet such people and not only build a long and productive professional relationship with them (that gave him many achievements and us so many great, iconic, mindblowing programs), but also build a deeper personal connection based on understanding and respect and kindness, too.

Also interesting to know a little bit of the behind the scene choreo work this past season, I thought Yuzuru had only been exchanging vids, !but apparently he got some live sessions with Shae! Also, whoa so Rondo was still in the making in early October:tumblr_inline_n2pjd9sspI1qdlkyg: well, maybe not surprising, since he had Kyozuka do a brand new arrangement for him. Really so much work went into Rondo, I'm always moved by Yuzuru's utter dedication to his programs...

 

Then, Shae's words about Yuzuru's skating, his lack of pretense... it reminds me of that famous post-PC press con about his skating being "truth". The feel of "sincerity" is something that I really associate with Yuzuru's skating, and a big reason why I find it so mesmerizing and able to have me in a spell, no matter what he's skating to. He pulls you in his world and make you look into his soul and, translating feelings into movements on the ice, he reaches out to you and allows you to look into your own soul too, :tumblr_m9gcvqToXY1qzckow:

And then I really like the way he connects with the audience. I think every time he offers some sort of gift to the people watching. That makes the competition itself more vibrant. More and more people are coming and joining the figure skating family.

I also appreciate that Shae-Lynn noted this. It's nice that someone can spell out how Yuzuru bringing in new fans is a good thing for the sport as a whole (and also, ho Yuzu was and still is a good thing for the sport as a whole). Now, if only ISU and JSF could just stop wasting the incredible luck they got...

Speaking of Yuzu and music, I'd love to see him perform to an intense song where he could really let it rip. Something along the lines of Hysteria by Muse (I mean, he's already sort of performed to Muse, right?)

Expand  

do you mean the PyeongChang practice fanvid?

I feel like Masquerade is pretty intense as a piece on its own, for the undelying grief and anger in it, and it drained Yuzuru emotionally a lot perform to it, you rarely even see him that exhausted after his multiquad programs anymore.

But I would love to see him skating to Muse for real, even if it were the overused Exogenesis (overused in FS, as a Muse song). If a fanvid where he wasn't even actually skating to music can be so breathtaking, how would a real program look? :tumblr_inline_n18qr5lPWB1qid2nw:

Also would love for him to skate to Queen once (I remember when we wondered which LMEY we were getting LOL). I guess The show must go on lends itself quite well to a fs program (has been used quite a lot I think in FS Queen madleys too)

 

 

 

daily iconic yuzumoments polls!

It looks like the most chaotic moments are also the most beloved (baldzuru aside, I guess:laughing:)...BUT WHY IS "DON'T WANT TO WATCH THIS" LOSING AGAIN?:curse::shame:

I'm also mourning the loss of the NHK crown moment, but twirling Swanyu with golden streamers was such a strong opponent, I'm just sad that they had to meet this elary in the polls... draws can be so cruel:YuzuPoohSad:

Some of you might have noticed it already:

The Stockholm LMEY video on the ARD Sportschau has disappeared.

 

I checked the video link and it's still there but private. My guess is that there must have been a copyright strike or smth and they have to fix the issue first before making the video public again.

I don't know what impact a video lock has on past view numbers. Would be really sh*t if those 3.3M views were gone :tumblr_inline_mqt4gi2T9v1qz4rgp:

 

 

Anyways, it's the one year anniversary of the video upload, so let's celebrate LMEY's success on the Sportschau channel in this one year :cheer:

That hugging video just killed me....typing through the tears....I'm new to this forum but not to FS - Dorothy Hamill was my first favorite skater! - and I have to admit that I was a casual Yuzu fan until Beijing. I always loved his skating and saw his programs now and then but never had the urge to dig deeper. I tuned into the Beijing games to see if he could possibly win another gold but got more than I could have possibly imagined. The arc of his Beijing experience was both heartbreaking and inspiring and as the days went on and the videos kept coming of his practices, the press conference, interviews and so on, I became enchanted with his heart and spirit. And so I sought out more information, started following some IG and Twitter accts and, happily, found this forum. I've spent hours looking through the threads and watching videos and only become more invested in supporting this amazing person. I guess I'm a baby fanyu - although I would call myself an auntie fanyu - old enough to be his mom! I will be so sad if he decides to you-know-what but I believe he will continue to skate in whatever venue is best for him. I certainly know that he won't make any decision without the utmost thought and respect for himself and his dreams. And in the meantime I still have SO many videos to enjoy :heart: thanks to all for the time and work you put into this forum - it's really a treasure!
