He really picks extremely fast and so light so that you can barely see it. If you can see the entry then it's easy to recognize the jump too. While doing the jump, his body position and also the rhythm of the jump looks different too. His left leg in 4S looks more bent, during 4T it's more straight. Some comparison from Olympic practice: 4S 4T [own gifs] In original speed: 4S, 4T Link to comment

With other skaters, I always look for that big curving sweep of the non-jumping leg as the giveaway for the Sal, and a straight glide with heavy toe pick for the toe loop. Yuzu's not like that.

I realized that it's actually easier to differentiate the Sal from the Toe by watching the angle of his torso than by looking for the toe pick itself. He's more upright with the Sal, while he leans forward on the Toe to get the picking leg back. These YT videos were helpful as well. Link to comment
TallyT Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Okay, I want this so much.... Both the small girl inside me who loved her paper dolls, and the woman who thinks playing with a Yuzu is quite a fantasy.... Link to comment

BWOZWaltz Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 The caption: Re: T-shirt throwing at Hello I love You, at the beginning it looked like "Mum, can you wash this?" but by now, it would be like... The way Yuzu just casually and shyly handing it over, it does give off the feel of "handing over the laundry" and that's so funny And also the OP carried on to imagine how it'd be now if it's done by 24yr old Yuzu with Masquerade level of hotness...oh dear we're in trouble Link to comment

Just *force* yourself to watch, over and over, and over... because I have no trouble telling the difference. I guess you have homework. More Yuzu watching... too bad.... Link to comment

Both the small girl inside me who loved her paper dolls, and the woman who thinks playing with a Yuzu is quite a fantasy.... The thing is, with any other human, the proportions of that doll (The Waist, long legs, etc) would be a cartoonish exaggeration. With him, it's pretty close to accurate! ETA: Actually, I've thought for a while that if you stuck big boobs on him, he'd make the perfect Wonder Woman. Link to comment
Lambari Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Bobrova talks about Yuzuru here at 18:30. Apparently she mentions him among the skaters she likes to watch but I don't speak russian so hopefully someone can make an accurate translation. Link to comment
