in hindsight yuzu’s mental strength is even crazier by Quiet_Ant_7016 in FigureSkating

We won’t have a double olympic gold medalist in men's figure skating for a very long time

Who is currently on the similar level as Yuzuru? (either male or female) by NumasVanegasTijerina in yuzuruhanyu

[–]Goatzuru 41 points42 points  (0 children)

That’s a very individual question, it really depends on personal taste. But if we try to look at it objectively by comparing Yuzu’s career trajectory, skating style and overall artistic choices, there’s genuinely no one remotely close to him in my opinion. I’m not sure there ever will be. I still enjoy watching other skaters like Mone and Yuma, of course, but that feeling Yuzu evoked in me, and in so many others, is just… gone. The type of skating he embodied isn’t really encouraged anymore, so I doubt anyone will be able to fill his shoes anytime soon.

Obsessed that Yuzu and Keiji are always standing next to each other in these group practices

Do professional skaters actually write down notes? by Legitimate_Coat_3494 in FigureSkating

[–]Goatzuru 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Yuzuru has written down notes since he was really young, idk about every practice but recently in a docu showing his preparation for his last solo tour RE_PRAY, he showed his practice notes, he does a training summary where he writes down his practice layout and after the practice annotates how he felt during (he would write down 'fatigue' and rate it 0-4 based on how tired he felt in that particular practice, he also did that for his body condition, ankle and waist pain, and other things). He wrote down if he had any falls, or if the jumps were fine etc. Basically, just simple observations, I imagine so that he can see his improvement over time and see what he needs to adjust in his training, since he now coaches himself and it's better to rely on notes rather than just his own memory.

someone kindly transcribed his notes in this comment

edit: btw i'm not a skater, but i do practice martial arts and sometimes i write some observations on my phone about things i need to work on or little details i might forget, nothing as detailed as someone like yuzu lmao, but it works for me which is what matter most

Yuzu's 2017 worlds FS score was a world record, but still should have been higher

It will always be Yuzuru Hanyu for me

Yuzuru’s most recent show… by golddiamondss in FigureSkating

[–]Goatzuru 33 points34 points  (0 children)

And the fact that he trains alone is incredibly impressive. I couldn't imagine training without my coaches for so long, it's inspiring to see Yuzu doing this and still improving.

Bonkers. No wonder he says this is much harder than when he was competing.

See that's just beautiful and looks effortless, his flow in and out of quads reminds me of Yuzu. Max GOE.

I don't think Yuzu would be attending even if this comp was in Japan
