“For the Free Skate we want to forget about today, change our mindset and put a lot of care into the details of our elements.
We worked on many things and changed some elements, we want to reach a high score and fight.”

#MuramotoTakahashi 🇯🇵 75.10 “The lift didn't work out during six-minute-training and I was worried about that, but we could pull it off during the performance.”

“Competiton is the best practice, as our coach told us. You learn when to be agressive and when to save energy, so the previous competiton helped!”

#MuramotoTakahashi 🇯🇵 about their performance at #NHKTrophy in mixed zone:
M: “In front of the Japanese audience, we got into the character.”
T: “In the second half I felt (the exhaustion) in my legs, so I wasn't able to put a lot of expressions into my program.”
34
On next goals:
T: “In the RD we almost showed everything we wanted to achieve, we only need to brush up some small details. For the free program, we need to work on our stamina to make it safe to the end.”

#MuramotoTakahashi (村 元 哉 中 / 高 橋 大 輔) 186.61:
D: The mistake in the end was my fault. I try to be happy (about winning 🥇)but the mistake really gnawed at me. I went into the lift too fast and I didn’t have enough power when I made my step, so my body moved forward.
