2017 Worlds Gala

[Yatagarasu]

Hanyu on Fuji TV talking about quint jumps within the next few years...

Yes, he said yesterday at the presser someone told him quints were possible and then went on to talk about how ISU doesn't even have BVs for them ... I am not sure he's right though but we'll see.

That someone was Kozuka. I remember Kozuka wrote some thesis about Quint in theory.

i think i read somewhere a long time ago about how according to science, 5 rotations is the absolute limit of human body...?

Oh, now that's interesting.

Remember how we had that other article before how they weren't? I just hope he is not going to test that theory ... but then I told you what Zhenya said in one of those articles. He might want to try .... post Olympics ....

like if he achieves the 4A it'd be one hell of a historic record but the risk of injury so close to olympics is a big worry
i hope he doesn't hurt himself!

After watching gala live: I never thought I'd be happy to hear Justin Bieber, but V/M were a bit of relef after all the lyrical programs. I know that some were surprised at some names on the list, but Jason and Misha werr really needed there. I can imagine the desperate director asking around "Uptempo? Does anyone have an uptempo number?"

Some skaters should rethink their approach to ex programs: when Katelyn came up I experienced a deja vu and then realized the Finninsh skater had similar dress, music and program. Both rather generic. And D/R - holy moly that was a bore.

Standouts to me: Jason, Savachenko/Massot, Carolina, Evgenia. I'm on the fence regarding Boyang - fun music, lots of personality but whoo boy lots of empty skating around. The best numbers were imho, by Yuzu, Misha and Capellini/Lanotte. Oh, and the special edition of Yuzu vs Jumps was fun, even if he lost.

ETA: And Shibs, Shibs were goid too. Somebody wrote that this is their best program this season and i agree, they could remake it as a freeskate. And the Finn guy and team Unique!

a huge thank you to everybody on this thread for helping out with videos and links!!!
u wonderful people are all angels and should be proud of yourselves :agree:

 

[Arriba627]

I am glad its not just me. It makes him look kind of heavy somehow. How is that possible

It's because his fat b*tt is hanging out. You don't see it in the other 2 costumes. I was just saying in his thread that it looks like if he washes those pants one more time they won't fit cos they're already too tight...Like his new EX though. David Wilson gave him good choreography.

I love his little butterfly movements in the choreo....these outfts really do show Shoma's assets - I thought he generally looked more mature this season. He still is somewhat boyish, but he's growing up under our eyes.

LOVE the butterfly movements. Also noticed that right away after he saw David Wilson, he added 2 moves from the EX to the SP...Guess the fat b*tt purple pants are gone forever. :sad4:

This 4T-Lo-4T is something! I don't like Yuzurus Swan EX program but would like to take a look at Shomas and Sui/Hans programs. Thanks to fujitv impossible find any tough, such a joykiller!

Trying/putting on 4A during Olymic season it's too risky and insane even for Hanyu.

 

[na1129]

Hope this works? Jump battle and.... stuff not the best quality I'm afraid.

What was her jump? Maybe 3S-3T?

 

[ramurphy2005]

Watching the NBCSN broadcast right now.

I didn't understand Boyang's program at all.

 

[liv]

Nobody does! It is crazy!!

That's the beauty of it.
