Pops have damaged his GOE+PCS considerably, this season... This is probably why I was so happy that of his 5 4Lz attempts today at rehearsal, none was a pop, at least seemingly by reports. Rotate and fall, dammit! Better yet, don't fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let this be the holy program that helps Yuzuru break the sound barrier of 350 total points. 3 minutes ago, xeyra said: This is probably why I was so happy that of his 5 4Lz attempts today at rehearsal, none was a pop, at least seemingly by reports. Rotate and fall, dammit! Better yet, don't fall. I feel like he pops edge jumps 80% the time he pops at all, am I right? Edge jumps are understandably... more prone to pops? So one good thing about his Lz is that we won't have to worry about pops. I believe it will happen the same thing that happened with the 4T, at the beginnings: the percentage of success improved considerably over the course of a short amount of time, thanks to Yuzuru chasing the "feeling" of the jump. I am sure that he is chasing the "feeling" of the Lutz right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he popped like a ton of the 9 attempts he did at WTT, before he landed that one 4Lz, which is why I'm like 'yay, improvement!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woah. It's definitely a big improvement. Then maybe he has already found the "feeling" of the Lutz. One thing I wondered is: why did he do a quick entrance for the 4Lz at WTT, the same entrance he has for 3Lz? I mean, everyone needs time to learn difficult jumps, can he not be more chill with himself? Leave easier, longer entrances for the new jumps? Dis boy.

Probably because the entrance is part of the jump, in Yuzu's textbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe it's a secret tactic to stop Brian from stopping him. He'll wait for Brian to turn around or look at the phone for a second and the next thing he'll hear is SPLAT. Brian: WHAT. Was that. Yuzuru: I just slipped, heheheheheheh Brian: Did you "SLIP" while trying 4Lz. Yuzuru: Noooo no no no no! Ask Pooh! Brian: ...4A? Yuzuru: Brian: ...

SSS Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Finally finished reading all the posts in General Chat. I shouldn't have gone through all the posts backwards. Now I am worried about the Chopin 3.0 again. (a lot of ups and downs this weekend) I LOVE Chopin 2.5, but just hope if someone here can link me the rules regarding program repetition? I tried all the keywords in Google but failed. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted to add to this, because it was something that came up a lot with the backlash against reusing programs. It's important to remember that outside of the very top elite, many competitors (regional senior competitors, novices, juniors, for example) can't afford to get new programs choreographed every year. Programs from very established choreographers like Lori Nichol or David Wilson can cost thousands of dollars, so it would be unfair to impose any rules that bar repeating programs. Obviously a skater like Yuzuru has a lot of money, but it would be unfair to impose restrictions on just the very top/financially well-off skaters and not on the others.

Murieleirum Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Totally unrelated to anything, but regarding layouts: Anyone knows what specific step is the one Yuzuru does after his 3A in this new Chopin's SP? Is it a simple 3-turn, with an arms movement coordinated with it? Well, I guess I shouldn't call it simple, since it's with the landing foot of the 3A xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
