General Yuzuru Chat


Recommended Posts

Well he looked pretty good towards the end of his rehab by ice show, and the cuts from media day also looked good so I’m not expecting a disastrous first pancake - even if it’s a bit rough round the edges, it’s a challenger, first comp of the season etc. I’m just looking forward to seeing him skate again - and the costumes of course.

With the old scoring system now history Yuzu's old records are carved in stone.  A new record-book is beginning.  In this first season new records will quite likely be set and broken repeatedly in all the earlier competitions.  GPF will be the point at which things start getting sorted out and European, 4CC and Worlds will finalize the record book for the season.  Next season will see fewer new records set and yet fewer in the season after that.  I expect Yuzu to own the record book after this season and to be strengthening his hold in each successive season.  If he hangs on to Beijing he should have a lock on the record book.  Incidentally Beijing will see a new book beginning for Olympic records.  I don't think anybody will really be taking all-time records seriously until we get to Beijing.  For records to be meaningful they have to be viewed in the context of a meaningful stretch of time.  Thus this first season will be largely symbolic.

Oh and back to the WR's, I highly doubt Mr. Hanyu is just gonna sit back and watch the younger guys make and break world records. With that planned layout?? Yuzu, honey, you aren't fooling anyone :sipping:

 

 

He's not trying to break world records, really.

 

He just wanna show the younger guys how to do it. 

 

:xD:

So inspiration grabbed me and now I'm working on a little something-something for ACI...(work in progress)

My thinking is that I won't crack it out unless Nessie makes her appearance, but if she does, then maybe we satellites present can sign it and I'll either drop it in Yuzu's gift box, or mail it to TCC later. 

 

I'm also planning to scan this image and convert it into something people can download and print out and use at the other comps this year, to be deployed ICN (In Case of Nessie). My thinking is to email it to those who request it.

 

Your thoughts? So far this is a Planet-only project, not sure if I should make it more public.

If Yuzuru sees it... Every male pair skater should hide from him during galas :68468287:

It should be much easier to lift Yuzuru. Yuzuru is about 13kg lighter than Javi. I actually want to see it :unsure:

No, cripes, no. This move frightens me when Eric does it with Meagan... I was panicking watching Javi upside down... I think seeing Yuzu do it would give me a good old-fashioned stroke...

Oh, this is so me next friday! Bad thing is, we will have some non-fanyu friends staying for the weekend. How on earth am I going to explain my Yuzu-syndrome, I don't know....:notamused:

Oh, don't bother to explain, just suck them into Hanyu fandom with you and make them watch him... they'll understand instantly.

And do it he shall, while managing to set some impossibly high WR late in the season to show that he's still alive and kicking :peek:

and then I shall proceed to lie down on the floor and scream
