RE: 4F or 4A or whatever. This will probably not bode well for Brian's hair but... just let him do whatever he wants. I know with the off-season and him in ninja mode we can't help but try to predict what he's going to do next with his layout and the new rules but I sort of feel like just letting him do what he wants. hahaha..

I agree, Yuzu has the chance to enjoy freedom for the first time in so many years... He said he will now do things that he always wanted, didn't he? Whether people like them or not!  I'm excited to see what his genius mind brings to the world. Without having any pressure on him to prove himself, I think great things are ahead of us and I fully trust him!

I'm just taking a step back and marvelling at how on earth have we've gotten to a time when "yeah Yuzu is going to jump Nessie" is the given.....

Well, we know that anything associated with Yuzu (whether he officially endorses them or not) gets a sales boost - like his face mask. Samantha Thavasa probably knew that and hit the jackpot but also, it's for charity as well so it's a win-win situation for them.

Has it ever bode well for Brian's hair? At this point, Brian's hair have resigned to reality.

Yuzu and the concept of "chill"- much as I wish, I think his concept of Chill is just too different from ours. We think Chilling means getting out of bed at noon, laying around on a beach for a vacation, I think his idea of chill probably involves doing those 4-4-3 or whatever crazy combos he does at gala practices. Very chill....

 

As for the new rules, I think he'll be fine. I think someone, fireovertheice, had a post where she listed the time spent by the men in various elements. Yuzu spends very little time on his jumps and his jumps setups, just does one after the other in rapid succession. This is due to his great SS in general, since he needs little time to gain speed-that built over the course of a program means a great deal of time can be saved. The time reduction I thought will mostly affect his choregraphic sequence, so I fear either the bauer or hydroblade will go. Which I will cry over if it happens. As for jumps, with the new GOEs range, while not knowing how they will tie into the TES. Will it be a BV% factorization, or a pure +5 GOE? If the latter, then a +5 3A can equal a +3 4T when done with latter half bonus. Even so, the 3A takes on perhaps more significance. All the men need to up their 3A game.

Not sure if this has been shared
the music and effects during the fake bid parts made me chuckle

Did the news talk about the fake bids? What was their take on it?

Haha.. I just remembered this. 

Imagine this ::: What if whatever we have seen has been in the direction of jsf or his mom or even tcc, and his real atristry would be more like zagitova's ex or the trashy beiber pants or like super!Javi. Trashy and weird and doesn't make many sense. We all end up extremely baffled and exasperated with our child who is glowing with his own creative outputs !!!

nooo, he wouldn't 

I think his version of trashy and weird would probably not go further than skating to something he likes (I'm thinking anime/gaming.) Maybe Tokyo Ghoul OST.

Which isn't even that bad, so I'd give him a pass

they mentioned it had to be restarted twice and the guy in charge of the auction gave a comment but I don't feel confident to make a statement about their thoughts on it

I'm down for a super!Yuzu program. He could skate to Kamen Rider music. It's super-ish.

I hope fans won't take Yuzuru's greatness for granted. What he did in the past four year were more than enough. The list of injuries he had is probably longer than all top men combine. He went through  COC collision, an almost career ending injury after Boston, an ankle injury this season. Just one of those could break most skaters out there. Yet, he overcame all and got 2nd OGM. He doesn't need to do this or that to please some people. He need to rest and heal his ankle properly, not to think about proving himself again. We don't know when he could get back to on ice training, and how his training with 4A go. Its not a normal quad and even Yuzuru himself know it would take a huge burden on his ankle. I would love to see his 4A, but if its not happen next season ( or ever), its still ok. No one can take any title or his legacy in this sport just because the lack of 4A. I hope once he restart his full training, fans won't scream 4A 4A everyday 

 

Now I think, if his ankle heal fast enough for GP, which GP he can do ? I dont think he has any problem to get 2 GP even skipping WC. SC and COR is very possible IMO ( or I would like to see him anywhere but NHK)

Doesn't he himself who choose to use seimei? If he's the one who decide the music, I'll trust it will be good or at least interesting. And I wouldn't be surprised if he choose more Japanese or Asian's songs.

OWG SP with Korean Commentary was uploaded on Youtube. I love the commentators just going ooooh and aaaah at all his jumps

Depends on whether he needs more or less time for his recovery, and which host country might invite him since he won't have an automatic 2 spots due to missing Worlds. SC (who won't have any top contender men so might invite Yuzu) and CoR are doable, but so is SC and NHK or NHK and IdF (France), though the later seems more brutal schedule wise. CoC and IdF is also an option if for some reason he doesn't do NHK.

 

The options are many. Hopefully he'll be recovered in time of GP season and if he is, chooses to do it.
