I hope that the most recent costume to the SP Great Spirit is the one that Shoma uses in competition. I've never seen anything like it. It's so cool.

Agreed. I looks more like a cool outfit than a costume for skating competition. Kudos to Caron if it is really one of his creations.

Some interesting comments from Shoma regarding the FS. Thx for the translation feimeicheng.

I didn't see that Itsuki's new post is here. New towel color? Oh no, now I have to buy ANOTHER one?! :love:

Nice photo of Sho with all the cool Colan Totte merchandise at FOI.

So should we take a vote? Do we like the costume with or without the stripes? I like it with the stripes but have to admit it looks better without the stripes on him. It has a sleeker, slimming effect. Still want to see what it looks like on the ice for the full program. Am not thinking all that much about it, because I wonder if it's the "for real" costume! https://www.instagram.com/p/B1yIzgmJSPo/

Costume more flattering on him without the stripes. I don’t want to see “threads”, too distracting.

Does anyone worry that Shoma may not get a World Gold or even GP Final Gold atleast once in his career? He is such a sublime skater who combines supreme artistry and athleticism . I think one of his biggest chances for World Gold was 2017 when he put in 2 dominant programs but was pipped by Yuzuru basically skating the greatest figure skate of all time .But I hope he gets one big accolade !

I'm not too worried. I have much faith in him! ;)

Plus, men's figure skating is so unpredictable anyway. I agree that he is a sublime skater who deserves so many accolades!

Love this wonderful tradition they have of giving flowers at the ice shows. Looks like Shoma received some beautiful flowers from fans!

Using Google Translate for Sho's web site, it shows the new towels cost around $24 U.S. Don't have time to check it out now but am wondering if they will ship to the U.S. https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=ja&tl=en&u=https://shoma-uno.com/

Damn, the way Shoma describes his FS makes me want to watch it even more! I'm glad he's not pushing to debut it at Friends on Ice though. I was worried that he would try to debut both his SP and FS with the previous off-season schedule, but I'm glad he took note about the rink size and adjusted. The wait for Japan Open is on :luv17:

Fan reports from the Friday show of FOI said that Shoma jumped 3A, 4T(2ft and >>), 2A (3A >>). Grespi ends with the step sequence and seemingly have retained most of the EX choreo.

Uni uploaded a clip from Japanese news that has a preview of the beginning of Grespi! There are some changes to the choreo but personally it still looks pretty intense :love:

As much as I want to see the FS, I was very relieved to hear he would not be debuting it. It's WAY too soon. He's only had the choreo for a couple weeks now. He will definitely have his work cut out for himself to be ready in time for Japan Open.

Sho with his buddy, Mr. Colan Totte. I figured he would be at Friends on Ice. https://twitter.com/Colan_Totte/status/1167645724600700928?s=20

Shoma has already contributed so much to the sport with so many medals, not least of which is an Olympic silver. By any measure, he is one of the world’s top skaters and is an inspiration to the younger crop. My sense is that he is plotting out his future both on and off the ice. The only glitch I see is that he hates to lose. How will he balance “not worrying about scores” with his absolute aversion to being off the podium? Perhaps he will find the balance this season. In any case, I feel confident we will see his athletic and artistic talents for many years.

Shoma did Grespi (SP version) for both FOI shows at Saturday! He challenged the layout of 4F (fell in both shows) 3A (so and landed) and 3S (landed and so).

Also, he received these cute standing flowers with Jigglypuffs on them :laugh:

I love how fans have latched on to Jigglypuff as one of Shoma-related things. It's hilariously his main character to play in Super Smash Brothers (where he beats Tim Koleto 4 times in a row, 2 with it) and his current iPhone start screen (at least per The ICE :laugh:)

I do... I feel it could end up with that Olympic silver being career best, but his emergence timing was a bit unfortunate. On the other hand, what are we without hope for miracles?

To be honest I was worried that I will not get to see Shoma win an ISU Gold just after the 4CC SP, and I was proven wrong then :laugh:

I do always hope Shoma will be rewarded with more big accolades! It would be amazing if he can have satisfying skates to achieve that, even if to me his skating already means so much more than any accolade can give. He's punched beyond his weight for many, many years now :luv17:

Oh my goodness, so cute! Is this matching all his programs? Purple for Stairway, the snowflakes for Winter etc?

I remember several summers ago when he was going to debut Ladies in Lavender, some fans sent him a massive display of lavender flowers. They always seem to have some kind of theme. Purple is for royalty, so it's very fitting! :luv17:

I attended Friday and Sunday afternoon show.
It is very difficult to choose but my favorite performances are;:love:

Great Spirit - Shoma
The Phoenix - Dai
Beethoven - Stephane
La cumparsita - Shae-Lynn
Lilac Wine - Meryl and Charlie
Rhapsody in Blue - Shoma, Dai and Charlie

Opening
Just kakkoii.

Rhapsody in Blue
How kawaii and kakkoii junior, Shoma is.
I love Charlie and Dai, too.
Thank you for nice choreography, Charlie.
(Someone from FF expected Shoma to skate Rhapsody in Blue I think.
He skated in The Ice 2016 Opening and he was very young.
https://youtu.be/hNVwxJsGmvw )

Great Spirit
Today Shoma jumped 4F, 3A(so), and 3S.
I really love this program but it must be very tough with quads.
He received a standing ovation.
I really hope to see Shoma and Dai’s SP in Nats and FP of course.

Finale
I really love Shoma in baseball uniform.
He seems to be a baseball boy.
I like the concept cheering for Olympic athletes.

Maybe someone shared before.

I took some Shotographs there and it was my paradise.
How can I choose only 7 photos from 146? :rofl:
My friend told me she wanted to make 3 calendars.
I really want to know which photos the DBC members choose.
Please tell me.

You are so fortunate to go to so many shows jerrymouse. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts...About the calendar photos, I would have no idea which ones to pick! There are so many good ones! I think I would be like your friend and would have to make (at least) 3 calendars.

Waaaa! Did he really sign autographs?! Who were the lucky people who received an autograph?! I love in one of the photos you can hear someone say "How are you Shoma kun?" I understand these photos are a bit controversial, so I deleted 2 of them.
