He's so animated talking about the loop and the lz.
There have been legitimate worries from fans and other observers about the wisdom of going for the 4A in competition. it's hella scary, and dangerous.
But it may have put Yuzu's mind off of the intense pressure to get the loop and the lutz in order. When playing a video game, one way to excel is to put the difficulty up way too high, and then turn it down again.
I've done the same on the piano: play a difficult fast piece extra fast, then slow it down to the normal tempo, and suddenly you realize you have time to breathe, you don't overthink as much, and it doesn't seem as hard. I may have thought differently about his practicing the 4A in practice if he had injured himself, but I think there were several benefits to doing it that outweighed the risks, and as it was a logically calculated risk he decided to take to get the most out of his experience, I admire him for doing it . Terrified, too, but can't help admire him.
