He'll really try it and hope it will work... at the Olympics. This mad man. It's either gold or a disaster. :tif:

I love Yuzu but honestly at this point I'm pessimistic in beginning to think it might be the latter

Wait I had completely missed this detail. No strawberry cake this time then, but his Pooh alternative are always fun😆

The 4A doesn't look ready for competition sadly.... I'll be happy to see a 4Lo now in practice. Pls Yuzu

He survived practice. That's good.

 

Yuzu fan-cam, I didn't expect that from NBC. Lol.

 

I didn't think he looked particularly stressed. Started to look frustrated when 4A wasn't behaving though.

I don't think repeating nats would be a disaster. would have to rely on nathan making mistakes to win, but it would be a good performance that he should be proud of

I think it's good that he doesn't seem frantic or too stressed. His feeling collected and in control (and healthy, ofc) is the most important thing this week. This is a tough position to be in, though. I know that 4A is his overall main goal rn, but since he said the Olympics is a special place where he feels he must win, maybe he put the 3F in there to make it easier for him to switch to a potential Plan B layout to win? Since he doesn't often compete with the flip normally, it might not be as easy to substitute without training it, idk.

I hope he doesn't put 4A in the competition and focus on winning instead. I would love him to see competing for another season with 4A ready.

Yeah I think a nats performance would be amazing, possibly even just switch out 4A for a quad loop and he could still be in the running 

I am full of wonder and admiration at seeing Yuzu on the ice: it's the Olympics and he goes for that thing he truly cares about no matter what.

Yeah.i think its need more time...i dont know if he still practice  4loop.

maybe this is wishful thinking, but I do feel like a couple of the attempts that were close falls were better? like, yeah, he didn't land it, but they looked higher and faster without going off axis

He looked nervous at the beginning but seemed more focus later. We've already known that conquering 4A would not be easy. Most of his other jumps look really good and his skating is lovely as always. I hope he stays safe, have the programs he feels proud of, and maybe have a bit of fun along the way.
