Fay Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Alexei Mishin strikes again. He gave a long interview I'd translate, but I know it'll appear in fsuniverse anyway. I'll just give the fragment concerning Yuzuru http://www.fsrussia.ru/intervyu/3022-aleksej-mishin-programma-bez-chetvernykh-pryzhkov-vse-ravno-chto-sup-iz-topora.html Q: What prevents us from developing such powerful male skaters as Yuzuru Hanyu, as other top men of FS? A.M: We have lots of girls and few boys now. If we consider any beginner groups, the ratio of girls and boys is 8 to 2. The competition between girls is much higher and they show progress thanks to that. But if one should think dialectically (LOL), all the processes in the nature have a fluctuating character. Where's that invincible British school of dances with Towler and Ford as its leaders? Where are Swiss Schwarz and Danzer? Where's a French Calmat? Where's a Czech Nepela? An American Peggy Fleming? I suggest we don't panic and we understand that such unique creatures as Hanyu whose magical combination of chromosomes provided him with the fantastic body and agility coupled with stunning commitment to hard work are once a century phenomenon. It's all genes, folks, it's all genes... even hard work is in the genes. Link to comment

Then again, I've been laughing over figure skating faces (and just general sports photography) for years. Utmost respect, of course, but also....... Well, I almost made it a rule not to make photos during spins or jumps (only landings maybe) cuz faces 1 час назад, kaerb сказал: Usually with sports photography you end up with a ridiculous amount of frames because it's so hard to get them in the right moment that you just set it on machine gun fire and pray That's totally me!

Magical genes happen often, I think, but the combination of a genetic strenght plus mental strenght, a spirit that always pushes forward to change, to transform itself - that's pretty unusual. I 100% agree with him when he puts Yuzuru to the same level of some of the greatest geniuses of human history. I feel so happy when Yuzuru's uniqueness gets recognized. A lot of people in the FS world can't even bring themselves to accept that, and see reality for what it is. Link to comment

I actually don't mind this, as long as he recognizes Yuzu's awesomeness and it's true that he is "once a century phenomenon" Link to comment

xeyra Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Many commentators have said Yuzu's body seems to make him ideal to figure skating, because of his soft landings (Kurt goes on and on about his back too lol), but it's a combination of that with Yuzu's unrelenting commitment to training, his work ethic and beliefs that have made everything work together. Edit: This is worlds better than Mishin going on about Yuzu's flexibility making him fall all the time. Link to comment

AsteroidB-612 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 AJPS, which stands for association japonaise de la press sportive (Japan sports related press association ) recently has an issue of magazine out in which they chose a list of top ten super star athletes who moves them....and Yuzu is chosen as number 2 right after Christian Ronaldo ! You can click on the link to download the PDF, in which they praised Yuzu so much for his artisitic expression and unique performance skill on ice which is so rare in Japanese people... All the while delivering the atheltic aspect of the sport! They basically think he is an idol on and off ice and with no enemy other than himself! Edit: I added the pictures of pages that contained Yuzu! Link to comment

The portrait of him is a beautiful photo, and how great is it for him to be in the company of names like Ronaldo at such a young age ; u ; (their description is not wrong either lol). The photo of the slide (what's the official name?) on the other hand........I said this for the person who took this photo of Evgenia too but like........why would you take the photo from that angle. W H Y. You've given him a double chin and failed to show off the move Link to comment
