We will know soon enough! we need all the help we can get.... Mentioned earlier the Arena looks to be booked for ice hockey for the dates. The other rink only has 1,500 crowd capacity though.

Perelandra Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Hockey vz Yuzu, hmmm I saw on the event schedule for the arena that there is season ticket hockey event. Does hockey fill a big arena for a regular season match? It's not a Quarter, Semi or Final game People love money, and UK's inaugural GP event would be a showcase event or do you think that they are preparing along the line of a British skating event. Almost inconceivable that BIS are not aware of the possibility of huge numbers wanting to attend, just in case a certain super star is competing. Link to comment
Xiupia Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 The conversation about assignments is fun, but if I was going to make a bet I would put 5 dollars in Yuzu doing 1 european stop and skate canada. I wish he did not go to NHK, but we are never sure, so my bet is more on hope than anything. NHK dates are way too close to the european ones, so I don’t think he would push himself that hard. He has been very careful about his health. All in all, Yuzu is just a person, worried about travel and the burden it causes him and his entourage (because he never travels alone), and there might be conversations happening now that we are not privy to regarding the federations and coaches, and where skaters should shine. By the end of the week we will have our answers, I’m sure of it, if not before! Link to comment

You have no idea how much I'm praying, lightening candles, asking saints, pagan gods, etc. For Yuzu to get assigned or invited to Skate Canada. And that he doesn't go to NHK but to one of the European places instead. I saw a post on Twitter half joke/ half serious saying that SC started selling tickets before GP assignments because they knew Yuzu won't be there. The prices were too reasonable and they could have charged twice the price if they waited until the assignments 😭😭😭 I can only hope, and wait. Link to comment

Pammi Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 So much better than the previous waxen Yuzuru, facially, but still doesn’t hold a candle to the real thing! But then again it must be very difficult to achieve perfection! Link to comment
