I think that there is a big difference between Nathan Chen and Yuzuru. It is true that Nathan has more quad jumps to use, but his skating does not seem to move our hearts. His skating looks like just gymnastics, jumping around, but Yuzuru's skating pulls our hearts with his passionate performance. Yes Yuzuru is performing with such a high quality and high-class elegance. Just watching his fingers, hands, arms, eyes, face expressions, legs, feet, every edge of his body, a music seems to come out naturally. Is anyone there who notices such differences?

[@faithsampson6340]

They are both great skaters otherwise they wouldn't be here. And who made you the voice of the viewers? It's an opinion that Yuzuru's is more passionate, a popular one, but an opinion no less. Have you seen Nathan's free skate from last years World Championship bc that pulled my heart similar to how Yuzuru's skating does for you. The 'difference' is in your preference not in either of their abilities to envoke passion/emotion.

[@harumih.3727]

@@faithsampson6340 First of all, this comment section is for anyone that wants to post their own "opinion or comment or feeling" or whatever they want to say. I did not mean to offend anybody's comment. I just wanted to emphasize the greatness of Yuzuru's skating. And, by the way, how I felt, how others felt, are, as you say, each person's impression and reaction, sure. But, the reason why I wanted to emphasize the greatness is that my "feeling, impression, and inspirationary excitement" is broadly shared with many people, especially the "artistical professionals and artistic creators." I did NOT mean that my comment and feeling is the voice of all the people, so why you criticize my comment such a way is beyond my comprehension. You really offended me, by criticizing me of doing something that I did NOT do. I never pushed my feeling to others. This comment section has "community guideline" and your comment against me is a violation of the guideline. You offended me. Please see below, so that you will know why I was sure that what I felt was not only my "feeling" not "opinion" but it was shared with many artistic professionals, such as ballet dancers, sing-song writers, music composers. One of the people who are professional artists is Christina Valdez, of the Crescendo Conservatory, who uploaded many ballet performances on KZbin, as a tribute to Yuzuru Hanyu. Also another artist is Kelly Moran, who was equally impressed by the "musicality, artisty, body expressions, arms expressions" and created her own products. www.olympicchannel.com/en/stories/features/detail/yuzuru-hanyu-ballet-piano-tributes-meets-alysa-liu/

[@faithsampson6340]

@@harumih.3727 I don't see how my comment was offensive but wtv. And i said myself that many ppl share the same opinion as you he is a great skater but so is Nathan. They both obviously spend hours practicing so that they can do what they like. I was only saying that there is not so much a difference between them as ppl like to think. Red might envoke more emotion in most ppl than the color blue but that does not make it a more passionate color. It might be a FACT that more ppl like the color red than blue bc more ppl precieve it to be more moving than blue but it is an OPINION that it is more soul moving than blue to begin with. That applies to Nathan and Yuzuru as well. Just bc more ppl agree with you does not lessen the fact that their are still ppl who would disagree with you. To me it seemed as though when you said 'our hearts' you were speaking for ppl in general. And it is never good to generalize in my opinion . if you had said the majority that would have been true. But he does not move all hearts just like how Nathan does not move yours and Nathan does not move all hearts but he does move some. Your second comment seemed to be a defense for Yuzuru but you misunderstand i am not discrediting him, i actually like them both equally, only pointing out that you are expressing the opinion of the majority as though it applies to everyone. Obviously they are both awesome and have their strengths and weaknesses but their ability to move somebody cannot and should not be quantified. It's like if someone said black ppl don't appeal to our eyes but white ppl do. That implies that white ppl are generally more attractive which is bs. Some ppl might think so even the majority( im being theoretical ofc) but its an opinion so it would be misleading to use "our" in that sentence and yours as well. Opinions are fine but they should not be stated as fact. White ppl are not more attractive than other races. They appeal more to some ppl just like how Yuzuru's skating appeals to your heart. It's a preference and style choice not a fact regardless of the majority opinion.

I understand this new era of figure skating since I was a skater myself in my youth. But I also think that too much emphasis is being placed on this quad jump revolution. It seems to me that they are turning the Olympics into a quad jump contest; who can do the most in their program. A quad does not a program make! It is a single element in the whole program. You don't win an Olympic medal based solely on how many quads you did. Equally important is the artistic quality and impression you make on the audience.

[@risaguiang8531]

@Heather Kmetz very well said. You're absolutely right.

Heather Kmetz ,,,a lot has changed technically since 2014 and I know you realize that. Patrick Chan is also a victim of the quad revolution...he is no longer competitive as well. I agree that there has to be more than jumps, but without them, you might as well become a coach.

[@heatherkmetz6136]

@@garysimmons1485 The quad revolution all started with Kurt Browning in 1984 when he was the first man to land a quad in a competition. Since then others have followed in his footsteps pushing the envelope turning the Olympics into a quad jumping contest. Now you see the new wave of young Russian girl skaters at 13 yrs. old doing quads. So now you have a Russian Revolution of quad jumpers too. I like to look back at older clips of skaters back in the day when there was a lot more artistry, grace and finesse. The beautiful skaters that skated elegantly. This is what drew me to the sport. I loved skating when I was younger and I competed for a while. I had fun while I did it. There wasn't the pressure then of landing big jumps.

[@edukid1984]

Amongst the five skaters who've been pushing the technical boundaries since 2014, Shoma Uno has the most problematic techniques with his biggest jumps. Yuzuru: textbook everything, Javier: textbook quad toes and quad salchows, Nathan Chen: textbook quad jumps across all types, Jin Boyang: textbook quad lutzs with insane height and distance. Shoma Uno? Flutzs, Floops, excessive prerotations. He gets away with them because of lack of clarity in the judging rules, but in the eyes of many he's overrated to say the least.

I knew from the start that it would end with Yuzu, Javi, and Shoma. I feel genuinely bad for Nathan, but he simply just wasn't ready for the amount of stress that he was put under after Yuzuru's score. Same with Mikael. I think the reason that the top three are the top three is because they know each other well. There are plenty of instances of the three interacting off the ice. Shoma, in my eyes, is kind of like Yuzu's protege, for lack of a better word. You can see the influence Yuzu has on his skates. Another thing the three do, is they get out of their heads, and loosen their bodies. The first thing Yuzu does in every skate I've ever seen him do is a languid roll of his body. He always has a few moments after the music starts before he starts skating, and when he walks on the ice, it more like he's greeting an old friend father than approaching his throne. Shoma, he controls the ice with a firm but gentle hand. Javi plays with the ice, toys with it.

[@i-deey-channel7743]

Wow so true... it’s more about mental game indeed

Not to mention this was the first time i think that nathan competed with a clean yuzuru (yuzu always pick at the end of the season)

[@sosashii7656]

Even though my FS knowledge is not perfect, but i could tell how different Yuzuru skates form the others, his skating is just so effortless, smooth and beautiful!! Yet his entries & exits from his jumps are the most difficult ones!! I really admire him he’s the GOAT!!

[@reagandavis8196]

I’ve been watching Yuzuru’s videos lately and I can really tell his style is so much different than other skaters. He’s really graceful and slides on the ice. He doesn’t make his moves powerful such as his arms but makes them moves with his body instead of forcing them. I can really see why he holds the first and second highest ever score

[@mariajesseannegloria3026]

Since Sochi, I’ve read and heard comments saying that Yuzu won both the sochi and pyeongchang olympics because the other skaters popped their jumps. I can’t help but be disappointed because having the ability to deliver when it matters most is one of the qualities of a champion. Yuzu was the most worthy competitor to win both Olympics because he delivered and the world was left in awe.

[@misa7401]

hadaneva yep. Techinically, that is. If you try to sum up all the BV of Nathan Chen’s program, it will really have more value than of Yuzuru. And think of the quad jumps Hanyu can do. As of the moment, he had jump only three kinds of quads: quad salchow, quad toe, and quad loop. And I think that the quad with the highest BV is quad lutz which Nathan can do. However, it has always been a tough part of Yuzu’s competitors because Yuzu got all the elements needed: technicality, component and GOEs. So don’t be too sad.

[@dayhan1067]

@@misa7401 yuzuru CAN jump the quad lutz, he stopped adding it on his layout after the incident which lead to his hiatus before pyeongchang. he landed it again after olys in faoi, now he's even attempting the quad flip and of course who would forget that monster quad of axel

[@feather796]

@@misa7401 bv doesn't show quality. Hanyu's programs have the most complex steps, transition, and he has surpass skating skill. All of his quads have vary steps before jumping. I don't think a 4lz without any steps will be harder than a 4s with difficult entry. There's a video shows men's one foot skate in Olympic season and you'll find how deep the gap between Hanyu and other top skaters. Finally in season 18-19, comparing the times of crossover in fp, Chen needed 32 times, while Hanyu only needed 16 times. If you consider all elements not just bv, Hanyu's programs are harder

Although I felt bad for Nathan, he did what he can it's just really a bad day for him (now the 2022 olympic champion as well), Boyang Jin and Javier were both amazing. Shoma (now a two time world champion as well) wow, his passion in ice is very evident. And of course Yuzuru Hanyu, the most complete figure skater ever. Always amazing, aside from challenging his self, he's challenging the sport too.

[@donadwaritangkudung9338]

I started watching figure skating because of Yuzuru Hanyu. When I tried to watch other skaters skating, eg. Nathan Chen, I really could not enjoy it, feeling bored. Yes, maybe NC is a good skater, but still I love the way YH skate more. I thought figure skating is the combination of technical element n artistic element. Why does it change now? Why they keeping jumping around without soul, like a jumping machine? If it is like this, it's better watching gymnastics than figure skating.
