Ohh, yuzu's first successful 3A in competition at the Eastern Japan Junior Championships at 13, it was a beauty even then 👌 twitter.com/miyabiucchi042…

🥺💕 compilation of Yuzu behind the scenes, including gently burying a bug he found on the ice and saying a prayer for it ;; twitter.com/miruru1207yuzu…

Yuzu realised Tsuzuki-sensei's comment: 'has there been another skater who's been more rewarded' was true & those words stayed close to his heart, esp after Beijing where he was emotionally & physically a mess; those words resonated & bc of them, he has his current happiness twitter.com/yuzu1207_ss/st…

5. The takeoff motion is generally when momentum is going up but when you need to rotate, your body closes bc you're turning like in #5. He doesn't do that for his 4A (body is still open when he takes off bc of less PR) & that's why it's difficult to complete the rotations
159
Yuzu's explanation of his 4A in photos
1. His free leg takes off at this pt
2. Meaning his takeoff foot only pre-rotates to this angle
3. Technically you can pre-rotate until 90 degrees on the Axel
4. But the feeling of taking off from #4 vs #2 is totally different
160
Thank you, best boi, we will look forward to seeing you again 😭😭😭😭💕

Yuzu: 'I think this was the best Axel of not only my competitive life, but my life'
163
Yuzu: I've seen it once but I've been studying the slow motion like 'ah in this moment, I should've put more energy here'.
((technical commentator Yuzuru is so goated))
164
omgggg Tanaka-san - Yuzu says he's been shooting photographs of him since he was 9yrs old. Tanaka also saying how his ina bauers, eagles etc. are always evolving every year ;;;; a photographer's eyes!!!
165
LMAO yuzu freely admitting again to the fact that he thought someone would make a cool edit to parallel his sochi finishing pose in pyeongchang, THEY REALLY DID
166
LOL HE WAS PRAYING BC IT WAS 11:11 (Yuzu: the number 1 is important to me)
Takahashi: But what happens if you see it during a comp performance?
Yuzu: I probably wouldn't see it!
(but if he sees it during warmup, he takes a screenshot)
167
Yuzu: At the time, I didn't have a coach so at the time, Yuzupooh was my coach. More than saying 'I'm going!'. I didn't have someone's hands to shake but I wanted to feel something with my hands (hence squeezing Yuzupooh's face)
168
Nobu tallking about how ridiculously difficult his jump entries were, say it louder
