For the first time in his career, Yuzuru Hanyu will take part in the fourth stage of the Grand Prix (NHK Trophy, Tokyo).
Moreover, after almost eight years, he will return to compete at the Iceberg Skating Palace in Sochi (Rostelecom Cup), where he won his first Olympic title
477
In truth, he was selected for the fourth stage also in 2017 (NHK Trophy, Osaka), but due to an injury he was unable to compete.
A few months later, Yuzuru Hanyu won the second title of his glorious career.

Yuzuru Hanyu, engaged in the first Dream on Ice show, confirmed that the first goal for the new season is to land the quadruple axel:
"I'm going to try my best to achieve my biggest dream".
The short program will be new but the musical choice has not yet been announced.
We'll see
479
YH - "I think quadruple axel is my last dream as a competitive skater. I will do my best to achieve it".
The goal is to become the only man in history who first completed two different quadruple jumps.
Only the one who can start from a triple axel of this quality can do it.

To the simple question "who will be the skaters to follow next season", the answer is even simpler.
Yuzuru Hanyu, who if not him!

We are ready for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games with the hope that the last torchbearer will be the one desired.
Waiting for Yuzuru Hanyu...

I would have preferred Yuzuru Hanyu, but Naomi Osaka is a more than worthy last torchbearer.
Anyway, that's fine

For those who have doubts about the meaning of "effortless" in figure skating, in particular angolophones or similar, Hanyu Yuzuru illustrates the concept by performing a magnificent quadruple toeloop.
Directly from Sendai.
485
Three different 3A's entries/exits, but one common denominator:
GOE+6 = perfection
very good height and length
good take-off and landing
effortless
very difficult and creative entry
very good body position
element matches the music
Does anyone have doubts?
Not to forget…

Italy has officially applied to host the third stage of ISU Gran Prix 2021-22 in replacement of Cup of China.
The idea would be to host the event at the Palavela in Turin from 4 to 7 November.
It will be up to the ISU to decide on the allocation.

"The Total Package"
Tribute to Yuzuru Hanyu
Sunday, Oct 3 2021 Naples (Italy), starting from 17:00 cet.
489
There are 25 days left for the NHK Trophy, which will be held in Tokyo.
Right In Tokyo (Shinjuku), 17 years ago, Yuzuru Hanyu won the national novice B title, the first step in the path that has seen him win everything in Japan and in the World.
490
For the first time, Yuzuru Hanyu will not compete in any of the first 3 Grand Prix stages.
At the same time, for the first time, he will actually take part in the fourth stage.
His record in the last 2 stages on the calendar amounts to 6 wins in 9 appearances with 4 wins in a row
491
If a skater reaches almost 83 points with two major mistakes on the elements of greater value something does not add up or perhaps everything is all too clear.
In a case like this a score of 44.17 on program components is simply outrageous.
Probably someone doesn't know the rules
492
Predictions matter little.
The important thing is that Yuzuru Hanyu can achieve what are his real goals for this Olympic four-year period.
In any case, never underestimate Yuzuru Hanyu and also Ryoyu Kobayashi

A man on a mission to save figure skating is preparing to face one of the most difficult challenges of his glorious career.
Yuzuru Hanyu's aims for the upcoming NHK Trophy.
494
In an ISU competition, Yuzuru Hanyu landed quadruple toeloop (4T), quadruple salchow (4S) and quadruple rittberger (4Lo) on the first attempt and quadruple lutz (4Lz) on the second.
What will happen with the unreleased quadruple axel (4A)?
495
A big thanks to @ANA_travel_info for the perfect "#FLYUZU" image.
P.S. After careful verification, we can argue that even the quadruple lutz was actually completed on the first attempt. twitter.com/max_ambesi/sta…
496
Yuzuru Hanyu will not take part in the NHK Trophy due to a right ankle injury. The diagnosis speaks of ligament injury. The recovery times are not yet defined, but, as always, he will do everything to get back on the ice as soon as possible.
Really bad news...
497
According to the japanese sources, Yuzuru Hanyu is expected to return in time to appear as scheduled at the Rostelecom Cup in Sochi on November 26-28.
However it is too early to have official news and the most important thing is to recover from the injury in the best possible way
498
a commendable initiative of support and closeness to a great wounded champion, who will do everything to get back into the game as soon as possible. twitter.com/lagaia9/status…

A big thanks to everyone who worked on the project

and so..., thanks to a pamphlet prepared for the NHK Trophy, it turned out that the music of new Yuzuru Hanyu's short program will be "Intro et Rondo Capriccioso" with Shinya Kiyozuka playing the piano. Yuzuru Hanyu also said he completed the 4F in training.
All very interesting
