She doesn't only post Yuzuru's performances with their commentary, but also snippets of them talking about Yuzuru during other people's performances, or other competitions entirely... which happens pretty often Here, for example, they talk about how much it's difficult to do the 'grand slam' (win every competition in a year), and that only Yagudin in 2002 managed to do it, but that Yuzuru "who isn't second to anyone in terms of greatness, and I'm not only talking about this discipline (but in sport, in general)" won GPF, Olys and Worlds in the same year in 2014. Also, Dolfini says it's "incredible" that Yuzuru hasn't won a 4CC Gold medal yet Then they talk about how difficult it is to compare figure skating across the years, because the sport changed immensely. Max is very romantic because he is passionate when he compliments Yuzu. Then they go on and specify that Yuzuru's influence on the skating world isn't yet at the highest - we will see the results of his dominance this next four years until Beijing 2022, and we will see them in the 'girls' (he doesn't say 'male' children, he says girls because junior girls are currently twenty steps ahead junior men) who will imitate Hanyu, but not imitate as in 'copy', but as in 'see his method regarding jumps and transitions'. Max says Yuzuru is someone who 'made the jump something else than just three or four rotations in the air'. He goes on to compare figure skating with ski jumping, which is a sport dear to him, and says that what Yuzuru does with his jumps compares to doing a 200 meters jump while holding a tray of sweets in front of you Sorry, I only wanted to drop a link and I ended up translating the whole thing! Well, I wonder if anyone will mind Nope, thank you^^ Link to comment
Bilge Posted April 19, 2018 Author Share Posted April 19, 2018 I know all of his videos have great commentaries but these Italian commentators (dear Max and Angelo) are something else 2 hours ago, yuzuonice said: This is my 200th post so excuse my spamming/double posting, but I need it to be something special, so: x EDIT I'm a "baby swan" now, yay Link to comment

VyVy99 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 There are so many flattering comments of him during the first Smashing Seimei-Chopin ss that blows up my pride but one of my faves: "If he's even half way on... Is he beatable? By anyone?" "There'll be nobody that can touch him. Nobody." And THIS: "He's not just out of this world, he's on another plannet!" or something along the line. I don't remember where it's from and I've been searching so hard but couldn't find it! If someone knows please tell me >_< Link to comment

She said when Yuzuru is on his jumps are sensational; when he's off his falls are spectacular !! Link to comment
