It has improved so much *w* much more height than the one she did at jgp, and rotation and speed are O.O It's good that she grew a bit and the jump improved instead of becoming worse, sounds promising for the future.

But I'm just waiting for Joey to pop up and squeal :PPP like, guys they invited Evgenia to NHK, i mean. Nothing else to say XD I'm very sorry for being late on this, but: whoooooooooohoooooooo!! (That done, it's not that I generally love every Latin program. But I don't mind them either, and it could fit Waka I think, so I'm fine with it. But if it helps you, this means the LP won't be like that either, and it means at least you have less of that music to endure ) Regarding the GP assignments, I can't but agree with everyone that JSF either rolled a dice to decide, have the strategical minds of 2 weeks old puppies, or decided to go troll route. Because: no. sense. With those assignments, I wouldn't even be surprised if they get zero Japanese ladies into the final. I think they wanted to set up Satoko for it, but honestly, she could still get buried at SA and likely won't win NHK.

I think they wanted to set up Satoko for it, but honestly, she could still get buried at SA and likely won't win NHK. Ok it helps. A bit. I just hope it won't be a warhorse. I mean, no Malagueña or Carmen please? /.\ Massimo you betrayed me there XD I honestly don't know who could do it. Yes Satoko could be second at NHK but that's it if she's back on track and if she's perfect etc etc so a lot of ifs. At SA she has very little chance to win, they'll try to bury her alive. And with some ladies turning senior, and all of them with tons of potential, making it to the final will be no joke. On one hand I'm really excited for the upcoming ladies, but this is suicide from the JSF c.c
May 30, 20179 yr Full translation of Keiji and Shoma's interview for Quadruple 2017. There are some parts here that made me laugh so hard and others that are really sweet about their friendship.
May 31, 20179 yr According to Quadruple, Ryuju Hino has parted from Mr. Nagakubo. He is now coached by Yoshinori Onishi, who coached Tatuki Machida in 2013-2014.
May 31, 20179 yr Author Yes, I was just coming to post that. He cannot jump yet. At least he's practicing again but now it really is up in the air just what he can achieve before the season starts.
May 31, 20179 yr Yeah, in a short interview at JOC meeting released in World Figure Skating EXTRA WTT issue he says he still has exercise restrictions. It might take a little more time but hope he’ll get fully healed and become able to enjoy skating again.
June 1, 20179 yr According to this report, Shoma is currently working hard on improving his weaknesses, especially in correcting his Lutz edge. That should please @meoima And he's joined Toyota. Things are going well for him :)

That should please @meoima And he's joined Toyota. Things are going well for him :) I will believe when the Flutzer can correct their Flutz when I see it. Because I have never seen a flutzer fix their Fultz completely. Be it men or lady. Mai Mihara also rocks to the slight inside edge at the Lutz take off but was overlooked. Mao at her best of near end of her career did not completely fix her Flutz either. Daisuke never corrected his Flutz either. But he was overlooked. Even Jason Brown still E his Lutz now and then.
June 1, 20179 yr If he can manage to make his Lutz to flat edge, that's already a huge improvement. There are just a few skaters who have correct edge on both Flip and Lutz so for me, 1 correct edge and 1 flat are good enough Good thing that he still manage time to go to coach jump in US
