What I like most about Yuzuru's skating is his emotion, focus and confidence. When he hits those three things we get magical performances like ACI Chopin and Worlds H&L, but these things are not easy to come by for someone who feels the music and his choreography. I personally like Yuzuru as he is with his good and bad skates because that what makes him special. I don't want him to be calculated or mechanical just to be clean every time. it is impossible for a sensitive person to be mentally in the same space every time, and losing that sensitivity for better technical performance is the greater loss IMO.

 

I think his performance today was good even with the mistakes. When I read the comments I see things like he was off, slow or nervous but I watched the SP few times and even fan cams and I don't see it. Yes he was not as engaging as he was at ACI but so what? record performances are not the standard and should not be what he is judged against.

At least Men event is not as predictable as Ladies :laughing:

 

Helsinki was epic, I will never forget those three days when I ascended from hell to heaven.  Sometimes I think these deep emotions he awakens in people explain in some way why he gets so much love. How many fans stopped breathing today with the first notes of Chopin? His losses make his wins even more spectacular and unforgettable. 

 

ETA TAT praised him a lot today, especailly StSq.

 

Love what you're both saying here. But be that as it may, control, or at least some semblance of it, is something that he really does need more of, if he wants to be able to reach the outcome of delivering clean skates at the Olys despite how well or or badly others do. It doesn't have to be at the sacrifice of all the things that make him the skater he is, I really don't think he can get rid of those parts of himself even if he wanted to without a lobotomy, so it's a matter of getting them to work with him, and that's the skill which I think has thus far eluded him. I'm really hoping he's able to harness it in time for the Olys, and that last night's skate would at least be able to bring him another step closer to it.

Yes, you are right and he probably is aware of it as well. Didn't he say that his perfomance at GPF2015 was much more calculated and cool-headed  than the NHK2015 one? That he was in the "zone"  at NHK and you can actually feel it watching the perfomance, but the GPF one doesn't give this impression. Yet both perfomances brought WR. 

To you guys opinion, what are the highlights of the sp performance here? Is there an element or two that you like better than in ACI?

 

In my opinion, the hand movements in his spins are better. I didn't say it before on ACI bc i didnt wanna feel like a party pooper picking on a clean wr skate but i didnt (still dont) like the hand movements there *sweats*

 

The 3a is always divine. The flow n the perfect half rounded edge that's carved on the ice is aesthetically pleasing. Stsq doesnt feel carefully controlled? I want him to let it loose more, like in the ice shows, so i like it better here. But a lot of ppl really like the stsq in ACI precisely bc its the opposite of that

I feel bad to say the only things left in my head arw the cute face and tongue, pooh rain at the end of the program..It was too scary to watch the whole program live...Need to do it again...It is so funny that I missed him so much and I was scared to see him lol

For me, the highlight at CoR was his 3A. It was amazing. I never get tired for his back counter 3A. Superb. And his stsq also beautiful. His spins was good and hand movements fit with the music, i love it. But his spin much slower compare to his usual or at ACI (I love his LGC's spin!). I feel like he was saving his energy for next jumps, that's why his spins much slower(?)

At ACI the highlight ofc , 4T-3T (rippon). :smiley-love017: That's my favorite combo now.

You know what.. The way he's smiling like that after Chopin's ending pose remind me so much that smile after SP at GPF14.

 

something interesting to note in the K&C - Yuzu said to Brian 'but I didn't pop, yessss, finally' so it does seem to be something he's been focusing on
