I'm probably in the minority, but I think LGC is better than Chopin. And in a way, that he didn't manage to do it clean is proof of that. I understand why he gave up on it now, but I do wish he'd go back to it at some point... He could have it as Olympic Ex... that would be epic lol

And go clean for the first time. Yeah.

I read in some report today that Yuzu was between Plushy and Johnny, but then kind Johnny invited Shoma to get between himself and Yuzu 

Sorry Yuzu 

 

Couldn't watch the entire thing (for now) since I have to sleep (working again tonight ), so I had to skip my way through some parts.

 

My thoughts about some parts I watched:

- Oda dancing through Anata dake Mitsumeteru gave me Slam Dunk feels. Am I the only one who was singing along? :D

- Sex Bomb will forever be fun to watch.

- This just makes me wanna see Yuzu perform LGC in its entirety at ice shows even more. I love love love the energy of it.

- Despite having doubts about Yuzu picking Chopin yet again for his SP next season, seeing it performed again made me super excited. I know he'll be surprising us--if Chopin 2.0 is already polished to perfection, 3.0 will be even more spectacular.

What's the probability of this layout? 

4lz 4lo 3f 4lz-2t 4s 4t 3a-3t 3a-lo-3S

 

Or this one: 

4lz 4lo 3f 4lo-2t 4s 4t 3a-3t 3a-lo-3S

 

With two loops his BV won't be much lower than those with two flips.

We're probably definitely in the minority, but yes to this! I'm in love with LGC--the energy, the quick pace, the steps, and the way he just rocks it. It's a beautiful program for sure!

or

Just realized I put 6 quads there

Oh, I'm so happy I'm not alone in this! lol I agree. I think it's a perfect program for him. He's a fast skater and fast programs actually seem more natural for him, to me (or even fast moments in other programs). I know it's also more difficult because of that. I also have no doubt he has clean LGC in him. It's just too bad he couldn't show it, due to various circumstances.

 

I've actually come to terms with accepting Chopin. It definitely seems like a good strategy, from many points of view. The initial disappointment was just my own feelings of wanting Yuzu's awesomeness to be super extra awesome lol (as in blow everyone away with new programs). But this is probably better for achieving his goal. And especially after seeing Shoma and Javi today... I think Chopin is a great choice. (even while I personally would have loved something else :P)

He will never sacrifice one of his two dearly beloved 3A! 

 

I see more likely something like

4Lz 4Lo 3F 4Lz2T 4S 4T3T 3A-lo-3S 3A, although I haven't calculated the BV.
