Is it just me or did the Seimei step sequence look slower than usual, too? It was as if he was so tentative throughout. Even during the run-through.

 

Well, lots of time to heal and get better.

i think the beginning lutz totally threw yuzu off his game 

Barring the fall, which looked iffy, Yuzuru's issue did seem more mental to me. The ruckus after the WR probably didn't help with the pressure he already puts on himself, so.

 

As long as it's not physical, I'm not that worried. There's plenty of time until CoR.

Javi, that program was a meh, for me, sorry.

But he did land his jumps, so I think he'll win this.

279 - first place

11 points higher...reversed...

oh another canadian silver for his collection 

could it be a cricket bros podium

Canadian silver for yuzu? Motivation for the next comp!

Guys let's not forget that he hasn't been practicing for a week

Is 'Nguyen' really that hard to pronounce?

The trouble is, there's muscle memory.

 

If he's been practicing one layout, then had a break for the injury, then suddenly had to switch? It's a mess of combination of a break in practice, lingering pain and the muscle memory pulling one way and you forcing your body the other. Not a pretty combo.

I am laughing a bit like crazy
