This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. I don't think there is a deadline for withdrawing from JNats or any competition. However, Hidehito Ito of JSF confirmed on the day before yesterday that they had not received any notification from him regarding withdrawal. https://www.daily.co.jp/general/2021/12/16/0014919092.shtml This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

Some translations to 4A you can find in this thread (experts were Mura, Kohei and Professor Sakurai) Spoiler https://twitter.com/orangesrgd/status/1472236105533591556 ... and Kohei has said: https://twitter.com/sarah_sohma/status/1472246408380284929 [NEWS] Mayor of Sendai City Cup took place at Ice Rink Sendai today to promote figure skating and to boost up the level of competitiveness of local skaters. 63 skaters consisted of local elementary and junior high school students as well as adult skaters competed there, and Rika Hongo also performed as an exhibition for the participants before the competition. After the competition, Hidehito Kikuchi, winner of class E (probably a class for the youngest ones,) said his role model was Hanyu senshu because he kept bouncing back from failures. http://www.khb-tv.co.jp/news/localNews/202112191800010.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkN4-5-aYd4 (You can hear Hidehito's comment after the 00:36 mark) [NEWS] https://twitter.com/Iron_Klaus/status/1472484691446013954 [NEWS] Thank you to Sendai for the continuous support of Yuzu Link to comment
Planet Hanyu Staff Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 The video with subtitles for the experts (including king Kohei) talking about 4A on S-park: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nb2K08d2Wfk It’s interesting to know that the angle of his take-off is the same as the jump which holds the world record for the long jump. So many details and hardwork is put for 4A, so so inspiring. It amaze me every time. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. Come on fanyus, we have some work to do while waiting!

I just hope that he stays healthy and happy and achieves his goals. And that madman really implied that he might attempt a 4A during his FP? And there I was thinking he would be going for a "gentle" comeback after his injury and do slimmed down programs.

I suppose that at the moment, everyone is also experiencing a return of darkness or experiencing difficulties in their lives, so I hoped my performance to become a source of their energy, even if it was small." (As the situation surrounding CV is again getting worse here, I guess he referred to it as "darkness" in this comment) I think it may change in each performance, or according to the timing of his performance. It is Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso, after all. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

On the left side, it lists Yuzu's 10 attempts at 4A: 10 tries, 1 2ft landing, 6 pops, 3 falls; then the following lines - continuation of failures, "Never losing hope, never giving up". On the right side: "The dream of Quad Axel, today at 21:03 Free (Program), the Descent of the Angel (tenshi korin) - the one who excels in adversity (i.e. in the real competition)" On the bottom right, the poster shows the large kanji for "Hanyu" and separates them into a sentence that reads "The Wing 羽が will grow 生える" (Hane-ga haeru). Beautiful. May the earth and heavenly spirits enter into his soul. Someone noticed that Yuzu is inspiring these sports journalists to become poets and artists. https://twitter.com/nikkan_editors/status/1474849933639495680?s=20 This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. 15 hours ago, turquoiseblue said: https://twitter.com/orangesrgd/status/1475003262868860928 [NEWS] 15 hours ago, sweetwater said: starting order https://mobile.twitter.com/news_figure/status/1474979199987646466 planned contents https://mobile.twitter.com/figure365/status/1474992892230123524 https://mobile.twitter.com/figure365/status/1474993727831945217 This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. 14 hours ago, turquoiseblue said: From today's practice https://twitter.com/yuzu1207_s/status/1475025500443930625 [NEWS] 14 hours ago, Henni147 said: https://mobile.twitter.com/itsmasijacoke/status/1475016187947806721 900 Million!!!

I came back home nearly midnight from the Nationals yesterday, and I've not come to myself yet I arrived the venue with my friend one and a half hours before the venue opening time, but there was already a long, long queue surrounding the hall. All seats were of course reserved, but we just wanted to watch the final official practice We tried the same the day before yesterday to watch men practicing, but the queue was not so long. https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/6f1e61c5d4b4e8fd604ce01a7d0d873b910e440a/images/000 https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/6f1e61c5d4b4e8fd604ce01a7d0d873b910e440a Yuzuru seemed a bit nervous at his 4A, saying something to himself. He tried 3A 3Lo sometimes (I already can't remember this happened yesterday or the day before yesterday, or both ) And he tried 3A twizzle (3 turns?) sometimes at the location of 4A. I wondered what this was for? Two kohais talked about Yuzuru's performance. Shoma: It's too amazing. Yuma: Normally, we run out of energy after doing the Axel. Shoma seems crying a bit. https://twitter.com/yzkyun_4A_mami/status/1475275532095090691 Yuzuru: It (4A) is difficult. Super difficult. What you saw was (yet) what I got from my really hard work for 2 years. Shoma: The height of my 3A in the short program is 52cm. Yuzu-kun's is 73cm, 20cm higher than mine. Crazy, isn't it? It's ridiculous there is 20cm difference for the same jump. https://twitter.com/yzkyun_4A_mami/status/1475273606691450881 This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. https://twitter.com/marika_yuzu/status/1475315415480147970 [NEWS] https://mobile.twitter.com/shinjistarxx/status/1475360123577110531 Gorgeous picture This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. https://mobile.twitter.com/HanyuBr/status/1475361621107167233 Ina Bauer in motion https://mobile.twitter.com/bobayuzu/status/1475368242730475520 This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS].

It was really amazing that Yuzu put in the 4A, landed it on two feet and skated the rest of his program beautifully. That was so powerful of Yuzu!

Asahi Shimbun "Witnesses of the Legend" No. 3 アイスショーの舞台裏で震えた羽生結弦 高橋成美さんは「感動した」 Backstage at an ice show, Yuzuru Hanyu was trembling from anger (over the mistake he made)* "I was moved" - Narumi Takahashi https://www.asahi.com/articles/ASPDP5KF7PDLUTQP01R.html?iref=pc_rensai_article_short_13961396_article_3 羽生結弦にはじめて抱いた感情は「嫉妬」だった。 2014年ソチオリンピック（五輪）ペア日本代表の高橋成美さん（29）は当時、小学5年生だった。父の転勤で住んでいた中国から一時帰国した際、仙台のリンクで練習した。そこに小学2年生の羽生がいた。その時、羽生を教えていたのが都築章一郎さん。高橋さんも7歳から指導を受けていた恩師だ。 「都築先生には結構、かわいがっていただいたと思っていたんですけど、日本に戻ってきたら、ゆづ（羽生）にその座を奪われていた。先生の眼中にはまず、ゆづがいて、私はその下だった」 都築さんから「ゆづを見習いなさい」と何度も言われた。 「悔しかった。その頃は私の方がジャンプが跳べたので、『できるんだよ』とゆづにマウントをとったこともありました」 でも、都築さんが「見習いなさい」と言った意味がすぐに分かった。 「ゆづは体の軸の作り方がすごく上手。ジャンプでもスピンでも、すごく細い軸を作るからぶれないんです」 「同世代の他の選手たちと一緒にふざけているように見えて、実は自分のやるべきことをやり終えてから、その輪に加わっていたんです」 「『スケートをやるならオリンピックチャンピオンにならないと意味がない』って言っていた。そんなビッグマウスなところにも憧れて、私も同じことを言っていました（笑）」 年上の女の子たちには甘え上手で、年下には気配りができる。コーチや母親たちにもかわいがられる。老若男女に好かれる羽生に対し、当初は「羽生結弦」を演じているのでは？と疑っていたという。 The first feeling she had for Yuzuru Hanyu was jealousy. Narumi Takahashi (29), a skater of Japan's pairs team at the 2014 Sochi Olympics, was in the fifth grade of elementary school at the time. When she temporarily returned to Japan from China, where her father had been transferred, she practiced at a rink in Sendai. There, she met Hanyu, who was in the second grade. Shoichiro Tsuzuki was teaching Hanyu at that time. Tsuzuki had also taught Takahashi since she was seven years old. "I thought that Mr. Tsuzuki took good care of me, but when I came back to Japan, Yuzu (Hanyu) had taken my place. Mr. Tsuzuki had Yazu in his mind first, and I was the next to him." Tsuzuki told her many times, "You should learn from Yuzu." "I was frustrated. At that time, I could jump better than him, so I sometimes acted high and mighty over Yuzu, telling him that I could do it." But she soon understood what Tsuzuki meant when he told her to learn from him. "Yuzu is very good at creating the axis of body. In jumps and spins, he makes a very thin axis, so he doesn't waver." "He seemed to be joking around with the other skaters of his generation, but actually he had finished what he was supposed to do before joining them." "He said, 'if I'm going to skate, I have to be an Olympic champion, otherwise it's meaningless,' and as I admired his big mouth, I said the same thing (laughs)." He was good at being spoiled by older girls and attentive to younger ones. He was loved by coaches and mothers alike. Hanyu is liked by men and women of all ages, and at first she suspected that he was playing the role of "Yuzuru Hanyu". (*He succeeded a quad at the finale of the show changing his anger into power.)

Asahi Shimbun "Witnesses of the Legend" No.4 羽生結弦が望んだカナダ行き 語り合った食事会、トロントでの成長 Yuzuru Hanyu wished to go to Canada - A dinner where they talked - His development in Toronto https://www.asahi.com/articles/ASPDP5PY6PDJUTQP029.html?iref=pc_rensai_article_short_13961396_article_4 羽生結弦が、さらに飛躍する大きなきっかけとなったのがブライアン・オーサーコーチとの出会いだ。 2012年にオーサー氏のいるカナダ・トロントのクリケットクラブに拠点を移した。そして、14年ソチ、18年平昌と五輪を連覇した。 2人の橋渡し役を担ったのが、日本人として初めてクリケットクラブの会員となったフィギュアスケートコーチの樋口豊さん（72）だ。 樋口さんが最初に羽生を見たのは中学生のころだった。 「全日本ジュニアだったと思います。ジャンプ力、回転軸の出し方がとても上手だった。身体能力にも優れ、フィギュアスケートに向いている選手だなという感じでした」 羽生がオーサー氏からの指導を受けることを望んでいると聞いたのは11年。日本スケート連盟の元フィギュア強化部長、城田憲子さんから「オーサーコーチを紹介してくれないか」と頼まれた。 樋口さんはオーサー氏が現役時代、ジュニアの大会に出ていた時から知っていた。コーチになってからも親交があった。 「技術的にしっかりしていて、冷静で、あとはすごく優しい。コーチになってからも、あまり怒らない先生です」 10年のバンクーバー五輪では女子の金姸児を金メダルに導いた。オーサー氏の手腕を樋口さんは高く評価していた。 クリケットクラブについても熟知していた。樋口さんは現役時代、1968年グルノーブル五輪に出場後、クリケットにスケート留学した。 その環境も羽生には合うと確信した。 「クリケットはフィギュアスケート専門のリンクで、有名な選手が集まってくる場所。彼にはふさわしい場所だと思いました」 「リンクにはフェンスがなく、周りが鏡になっていて、自分の滑りをチェックできる利点もあった。氷もよく滑る。上級のスケーターは、いい氷で練習するということが、技術を高めていく要因の一つとなります」 2011～12年シーズンが佳境を迎えるころ、東京都内で羽生とオーサー氏ら関係者数人で食事をともにする機会を用意した。 Yuzuru Hanyu's encounter with Brian Orser was a major catalyst for his further development. In 2012, Hanyu moved to the Toronto Cricket Club in Canada, where Orser is based. Later, he won the Olympics in Sochi in 2014 and Pyeongchang in 2018 in succession. Yutaka Higuchi (72), a figure skating coach, acted as a bridge between them. He was the first Japanese to become a member of the Cricket Club. Higuchi first saw Hanyu when he was in junior high school. "I think it was at the Japanese Junior Nationals. He had a good jumping ability, and was very good at making a rotational axis. I felt that he was an athlete suited for figure skating with excellent physical ability." In 2011, Higuchi heard that Hanyu wanted to receive coaching from Brian Orser. Noriko Shirota, former Head of Figure Skating Division at the Japan Skating Federation, asked him if he could introduce Brian Orser. Higuchi had known Orser since he was an active competitive skater in junior category, and kept a friendly relationship with him even after Orser became a coach. "He is technically sound, calm, and also very kind. As a coach, he is a type of tutor who rarely scolds or gets angry at his skaters." At the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, Orser led Kim Yu-na to the gold medal. Higuchi had a high opinion of Orser's coaching skills. Higuchi knew very well about the Cricket Club. After competing in the 1968 Olympics in Grenoble, he went to the Cricket for skating training. He was convinced that the environment of the Club would be a good fit for Hanyu. "Cricket is a rink dedicated to figure skating, and it's a place where famous skaters gather. I thought it would be a good place for him." "The rink had no fence, and mirrors around it, so you could check your own skating. Its ice is good and gives smooth skating. For advanced skaters, practicing on good ice is one of the factors to improve their skills." When the 2011-12 season was coming to a climax, Hanyu, Orser, and some other people had an opportunity to have dinner together in Tokyo.

Asahi Shimbun "Witnesses of the Legend" No. 5 エッジを拭く手を止めた羽生結弦 真剣な目、「負けた」と感じた先輩 Yuzuru Hanyu stopped wiping the blades. His serious eyes - the time his senpai felt he had lost (to Hanyu) https://www.asahi.com/articles/ASPDP5Q87PDLUTQP00Z.html?iref=pc_rensai_article_short_13961396_article_5 羽生結弦は2012年、17歳のときにカナダのトロントにあるクリケット・クラブに練習拠点を移した。 3歳年上で、ジュニアの頃から羽生と同じ舞台で戦ってきた中村健人さん（30）も同年から2年間、春と夏に同クラブで練習した。 金妍児（韓国）や過去にはパトリック・チャン（カナダ）ら、五輪メダリストも集まる世界トップレベルの環境。 そこでも、羽生の存在感は際立っていたという。 「（シーズンインまで時間のある）夏のはじめなのに、リンクに上がって5分ぐらいアップをしたら、すぐに曲をかけて練習していました。その前にアップを入念にやって、うまくいった演技の映像を見て……。試合のような空気でした。そのあと、曲かけでミスが出たところを個別に練習していく。同じ1時間でも、他の選手とは練習の密度が全然違いました」 飛躍を誓って海を渡った覚悟が日々の練習からにじみ出ていた。ソチオリンピック（五輪）まで、あと半年ほどのころ、羽生と交わした会話は今も忘れられない。 In 2012, at the age of 17, Yuzuru Hanyu moved his training base to the Cricket Club in Toronto, Canada. Kento Nakamura (30), who is three years older than Hanyu and had competed on the same stage as Hanyu since they were in junior category, also trained at the club for two years starting that year, in the spring and summer lessons. The club is a world-class environment where Olympic medalists such as Kim Yu-na (South Korea) and Patrick Chan (Canada) have trained in the past. Even there, Hanyu's presence stood out, Nakamura says. Even when It was early in the summer (still time before the actual skating season starts), he went to the rink and after doing a 5-minute warm-up (on the ice), he immediately started practicing with music. Before that, he had finished a very thorough warm-up and watched the videos of the performances that went well....... It was an atmosphere like an actual competition. After that, he practiced the parts where he had made mistakes in the through practice with music. The density of the practice was totally different from other skaters, even if they were in the same one hour. His determination with which he had crossed the ocean, vowing to make a great leap forward, was seen in his daily practice. Nakamura still remembers the conversation he had with Hanyu about six months before the Sochi Olympics. As the main point of this article is in the latter part of the paid article, I put the summary of my translation below. Spoiler In 2013, Nakamura replied to Hanyu, who said "Let's work hard for the Olympics", that he would try his best to go (to the Olympics). (Nakamura had placed sixth at the Japanese Nationals the previous year, and there were many rivals, including Takahashi, Oda, Machida, etc., and he thought it would be difficult for him to make it.) Hanyu stopped wiping the blade in his hand, and said. "Kento-kun, As you are a senior, it's not easy for me to say this," he said before continuing. "If you say, 'I'll try my best to go,' you won't be able to go. I'm working hard thinking that I can go, and I will definitely win a gold medal in the Olympics. That's why I'm working so hard," said with a serious look. He left the locker room saying, "Well, good work." "He left really cool. I felt lost before the competition (laughs), but he was right. The game had already started before the competition." Hanyu reached the gold medal at the Sochi Olympics. Nakamura retired in 2014 and now works for a consulting company, says, "Even as a working adult in the society, I still think that if you don't do things with that kind of spirit, you won't be able to do what you need to do. I am grateful to my younger teammate for teaching me a good lesson and a guideline for the rest of my life." Hanyu has been clearly stating his goals since he was a child, and he has been achieving them. Nakamura says, "He can set a firm goal for each season and 'factor out' the tasks to achieve it. He is able to think quantitatively about what kind of training and skills are needed to achieve the goal, and he is also able to think in terms of science and mathematics, such as how many GOE points are needed to get the target score, and how the performance should be structured." In Canada, he often saw Hanyu watching his own videos and doing image training. Hanyu once told Nakamura; "When I'm about to jump, I see myself jumping in front of me, and I superimpose myself on the image of myself jumping, and I swing my leg up, and I can jump the same way." Nakamura couldn't help but laugh and wonder what he was talking about, but later he reconsidered that Hanyu probably had a clear image in his head of what area and how to make the jump. He thought it was proved in the World Team Trophy in April 2021. In the free skate, the quadruple salchow became a single rotation. After the competition, Hanyu recalled that he went into the hole (groove) he jumped in the last practice and got stuck. Nakamura was strangely convinced when he heard this. Yuzuru Hanyu may look like a 'genius,' but Nakamura doesn't think so. He has seen Hanyu working harder than any others through his practice. Nakamura thinks it is very Yuzuru Hanyu to challenge the quad axel. It's a very difficult goal to set, but after winning the Olympics twice in a row, the number of quadruple jumps has been increasing, he has found another slot of 'legend' that has not been filled yet. Considering the trajectory he's been following, he may achieve it again. This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. Is it already shared? Photo collection.

Planet Hanyu Staff Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Asahi Shimbun "Witnesses of the Legend" No. 6 4回転半、始まりは…羽生結弦が兄貴と慕う無良崇人さんが明かす秘話 The beginning of 4A - Takahito Mura, whom Yuzuru Hanyu adores like a brother, reveals the secret story https://www.asahi.com/articles/ASPDP5QMGPDDUTQP022.html?iref=pc_spo_winspo_fskate_top_list_n 「ジャンプに関して、一番面倒を見てくれた先輩。頼れる兄貴分」 2018年平昌五輪で2連覇を飾った羽生結弦が五輪後の同年4月、ファンのために作り上げた感謝の凱旋（がいせん）報告イベント「Continues～with Wings～（コンティニューズ・ウィズ・ウィングス）」。 羽生自身が影響を受けたというトップスケーターや振付師、指導者たちが出演した。その1人が無良崇人さん（30）だった。冒頭の言葉は、羽生が無良さんを紹介した際のコメントだ。 「面倒みたっていうほどではないですけどね」と4学年上の無良さんは謙遜する。18年3月に現役引退するまで羽生とは様々な大会で競演し、親交を温めてきた。 無良さんが羽生のことを知ったのは自身が合宿や振り付けで仙台のリンクに行った時だという。 「何年だったか覚えてないくらいですけど、彼がノービスとかだったのかな。その当時から、もう転びながらでもずっとジャンプを跳んでいて、ガツガツと練習しているイメージがありました。転んでも転んでもずっとやっているイメージがすごくあります」 試合で初めて羽生を認識したのは07年11月に仙台市体育館で行われた全日本ジュニア選手権だったという。この大会、無良さんが優勝したが、当時12歳だった羽生は存在感を見せつけた。フリーは1位。ノービス選手として初めて全日本ジュニアの表彰台（3位）に上がった。 "He is my senpai who has taken care of me the most when it comes to jumps. He's a big brother I can rely on." In April 2018, after Yuzuru Hanyu won the PyeongChang Olympics for the second consecutive time, he held a triumphant event called "Continues with Wings" for his fans. The event featured top skaters, choreographers, and instructors that Hanyu himself had been influenced by. One of them was Takahito Mura (30). The words at the beginning of this article are Hanyu's comment when he introduced Mura. "I didn't take care of him so much as he says," says Mura with humility, who is four years older than Hanyu. He had competed with Hanyu in various competitions until he retired in March 2018, and the two have maintained a close friendship. Mura first heard of Hanyu when he went to the rink in Sendai for training camp and choreography. "I don't even remember exactly what year it was, but I think it was when he was in Novice category. and I had an image of him practicing so hard, jumping all the time, even falling again and again." The first time he recognized Hanyu in a competition was at the Japanese Junior Nationals held in Sendai City Gymnasium in November 2007. Although Mura won it, Hanyu, who was 12 years old at the time, showed his presence. He placed first in the free skating, and became the first Novice skater to reach the podium of the Japanese Junior Nationals (3rd place). I will post the summary of my translation of the rest of the paid article tomorrow, as it is quite a volume.

Hereunder is the latter part of this article, which is the paid part. The translation is for almost all the sentences as I could not summarize it. Please note it is rather rough translation, and I'm not familiar with the technical terms of figure skating. Spoiler “I didn't see his performance actually because I was at the competition myself. Although I have not directly seen it, when I watched the video later, I thought we could see a glimpse of what he has become since then. In a word, I had the impression that the "next generation" of skaters has emerged. Including the way he carries himself, it’s a different kind of sophistication from our generation, if I put it. I felt that he was a type of skater growing up under the new rules.” “It is the same now, but the lightness of jumps, the fluidity of jumps, were already there when he was a junior. Seeing such, I just thought, 'oh, he is different’. We were the generation that had been competing under the scoring of six-point scale for a long time. Hanyu has started to compete in earnest after the new rules came into effect. He goes to competitions with the understanding that not only jumps, but also spins, steps, and the whole program, are scored in total. Compared to our generation, I think the biggest difference is that the skaters of his generation are competing with all the elements refined.” Mura and Hanyu recognized each other at the Japanese Junior Nationals. Why did Hanyu describe Mura as "a big brother he can rely on"? Mura recalls an incident at a charity event for the Great East Japan Earthquake held in Toyohashi, Aichi Prefecture in May 2011. “At the time, I remember that Hanyu's quad jumps had a strong tendency to go off to the left, and we talked that he should leave his upper body maintained in the air a little more, something like that.” Hanyu said, "I think I may be able to jump quad Salchow. Please take a look," and he jumped it with ease. They continued their talks through quad jumps, which have been mandatory for men skaters. Mura sometimes asked Hanyu to give him tips on quad jumps. “He wrote it down on a piece of paper and diagrammed it for me." One day, when Muira told Hanyu that he was having trouble with his quad Salchow, Hanyu came to him with a piece of paper and a pen, "He wrote down on the paper with what images he was doing and made a diagram. When jumping Salchow, you are standing on the ice with your left foot on the track, and when you step in (just before jumping), it becomes two feet. At that time of two feet, which way my left foot should go, and how I can make the jump without interfering the movement of sliding backward. He made a diagram of it. He taught me carefully and kindly in what direction to move my left foot, so that I would be able to find the right spot, and match the timing of raising my opposite arm to it, and so on.” “It was faster to ask him when it comes to quad jumps. I myself knew that he was looking into them. If he can jump quads so beautifully, naturally it's because he's been digging into it.” When he was a competitive skater, Mura used his powerful jumps as his weapon. Although he did not make it to the Olympics, he was one of the top jumpers in the field, winning the Four Continents Championships in 2014. What is common between him and Hanyu is that they both excelled at triple Axel, a jump to take off forward. Hanyu is aiming for an unprecedented quad Axel, and there is a story for the two of them on quad Axel. It happened at the ice show "Dreams on Ice" in June 2015. "Yuzu, maybe you have a better chance" "We talked about how it would be great if we could do a quad Axel, and I said, 'Let's give it a try.’ It just started like this; Hanyu-senshu said, 'As your Axel is high, you may be able to rotate,’ and I said to him, ‘Maybe you have a better chance.’ Since I had tried it in practice, we decided to try it in that kind of opportunity.” At that show, they tried quad Axel. They didn't succeed, but that little bit of playfulness was probably the starting point for Hanyu to challenge quad Axel. Mura says, “I practiced quad Axel for a while myself, but I knew I couldn't do it because I couldn't withstand in the air. I could not keep the posture with my body tightened up in the air. But I have a theory that if you have the aerial sensation to jump quad Lutz, you can keep your body tight, but the premise is that you have to be good at Axel.” Lutz is a jump that you have to be really conscious of tightening in the air more than any other quads, because you have to rotate from the opposite-side twist. If you have that feeling in the air, you should be able to rotate to the end of four and a half turns. Since Hanyu-senshu can jump quad Lutz, he probably has that kind of aerial sensation.” “And the Axel, which is nearly 70cm high and in a beautiful parabola, is a jump that only Hanyu-senshu has. Quad Axel is a challenge that only he can do. I think Hanyu-senshu is the person closest to quad Axel." This post has been tagged by yuzuangel as [NEWS]. Link to comment
