I remember seeing an instagram video of someone doing a counter 3A in practice (don't remember who, not even sure if our lady of memory @kaeryth remembers it) and it was basically called 'doing a yuzu'. I remember that, I think it was some American Junior skater, torgashev? Eta: ugh looked at his Instagram and Kraznozhon's and don't see it. Don't see it on Vincent's either....but I coulda swore it was some American junior (prob now senior skater) and someone (Johnny?) commented like "Hello Yuzuru Hanyu" haha Link to comment

I really wish people wouldn't keep knocking Phantom. It's my personal favorite of all his programs, the one I felt more than any other merged motion with music. I can see why people might not be comfortable with it because of the association with the collision and what followed, yet I consider his skating in the GPF that year to be his finest ever skate despite the one fall from a failed lutz. What one sees there is an intensity that indicates he is definitely a man on a mission, a man seeking to salvage a disastrous season. Just look at his reaction after the skate in the kiss and cry. I cannot remember any other time he was so overwhelmingly jubilant. He's reacted strongly in many other skates but the degrees of jumping around, turning about and bowing even to those standing up above the kiss and cry, were well above his average reaction. It was quite apparent he felt 'mission accomplished'. Link to comment
Sombreuil Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Oh Phantom has its fans - me among them, but it isn't a general favourite and it was really funny the way the discussion cycled back to it several times last summer! Link to comment
liv Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I hope that poster in the bus stop made him smile. I like that one better than the birthday one. I am sure TCC took a picture of it too. Link to comment

Thanks to my daughter who showed me this wonderful show and made me fall in love with the performance of Ramin and Sierra ! They’re so passionate and work so well together ! Link to comment
Summer Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Some of my best memories of Hanyu are from Barcelona GPF 2014. His Phantom was great and he also made the gala so special. (I wish he would use again the blue shade he has in his The Final Time Traveller costume.) Link to comment
