The 3A was just marvelous. Idk how many times I have been in awe at the fact that his takeoff - air time - landing matched the note PERFECTLY. And it's the quieter part of the music, so the impact is not in your face but when you discover it, the feels just hit like a truck

[@alannahood4107]

@@val875 I think there's a HUGE stylistic difference between them. When nathan does quads they LOOK difficult. It's like he's bringing attention to how much strength and power actually goes into those jumps. But because of that he often lacks any sense of fluidity, every time I've seen him perform he just looks so stiff and rigid, it's almost like there's a sense of awkwardness when he's on the ice. And yuzuru does the exact opposite of that. his performances are pure artistry. He makes the INSANE jumps he's doing look completely effortless. It's literally like he's one with the ice when he's out there, no stiffness or awkwardness at all.

I saw the live stream too, it was about 6am by my country's time when he was about to go on the ice, I had been up since 2am and I was so nervous I was hiding behind a pillow, peering out from behind it. And then he started skating and it felt like the whole arena was holding their breath, and how he just nailed element after element, and I just knew that this was something else. You weren't the only one crying at the end, I was this really weird emotional mess who tried to explain to a friend of mine over skype why I was sat crying over figure skating. I've seen him live actually! I was in Helsinki for the grand prix, and when he came out, it was like it transformed in to a completely different arena. Seeing him skate, you just KNEW you were seeing a legend. Although it's even more intense, I mean, you can hear the screams of the audience in the background from the videos, but it's nothing like hearing it live. I can just imagine how it must have been at the Olympics.

Same 😭❤ I can't believe it has been 1 year since then.

[@akas224]

ANIS your comment is so touching . You have a pure soul like he does, beautiful. l want to read more. you have a talent . I think you should write about him and be a writer.

Giving u a virtual hug

[@realfanyu]

always coming back here, to the athlete who introduced me to art first, i will forever keep all the memories and tell about him around the world, as I am the witness of an artist through the years… i’ll forever wish the best to yuzuru, hopefully he’ll achieve more and more moments of pure happiness in life

[@simplyliving2048]

How they roar for him. Truly, what a privilege it is to watch Hanyu Yuzuru skate

[@mareehamasood6967]

I have entered a fandom I didn't know existed until today

Por algo siempre serás el rey del hielo !!!

The eternal quadruple toeloop and triple toeloop.

[@yzo-rora4649]

羽生さんのいない競技スケートの試合を見ると 無性に羽生さんの美しいスケートが見たくなって 定期的にこの傑作にもどってきます。

[@user-qm2sy4hh7f]

流れる水のよう… 優雅ででも繊細で、なんて美しい演技なんだろう

[@sibyllefischer-steffan3989]

chopin is beautiful and so is yuzuru

[@user-gl2xv4bt9u]

このショートのゆづは完璧すぎた。 このショートが1番好きだし平昌はほんとに最高だったなぁ ゆづ大好き これからも応援してるよ〜

[@sugarman1299]

私はまだ16歳だが、これより良いパフォーマンスをするスケーターは現れないだろう。

[@trouthuang1959]

This is the TRUE Olympic record SP.

[@karappo2099]

未来永劫、色褪せない名演技 いつだって羽生結弦さんが世界一です！

[@asd-on1ct]

Эта программа Ханю восхитительная и на все времена! Вот где настоящий рекорд, который зажали продажные судьи ИСУ, а не в том надувательстве продемонстрированном в Пекине американцем, абсолютно не попадающим в музыку и все программы бегающим по пустому.

[@user-pz6go4ez9r]

... Здорово ! ... Ваш комментарий, словно меткая стрела, попавшая точно в "яблочко".

[@ThatOneGuyRAR]

I came for the Chopin, but stayed for the incredible skater.

[@kx0132]

“The greatest short program of all time”

[@user-kj9pb9jc3v]

This is a work of art that transcends figure skating, it's a sublime statement and expression of the soul, spirit, heart and mind, full of passion, quietness and introspection.❤️⛸️💐💞

[@user-re7iy9wx8m]

3か月前に大怪我、ぶっつけ本番の平昌五輪SPバラード１番 今までとは違う深くメリハリのある美しいスケーティング 完璧な最高のジャンプ 息が止まるほど美しいステップ ここまでショパンの似合う男子フィギュアスケーター見たことない 羽生結弦選手オリンピック２連覇達成

[@nellacaldera4341]

Guardare altri pattinatori dopo Yuzuru, è tempo perso.

[@igorlayovskyy8207]

Талант від Бога!!! Йому рівних немає

[@Greyraes]

this has got to be one of the greatest step sequences of all time

[@malakai_adam]

I got chills, no pun intended

[@kanekiken4860]

factually it pretty much is! 8 out of 9 judges gave it perfect GOE (+3, remember the judging system changed)

[@tommyxia9489]

also check out Mao Asada's step sequences from her Rach II free program in Sochi 2014!

[@yanemendoza1099]

Definitely, this is the greatest short program in fs history

[@scastillo7419]

I was just saying to myself as I was re-watching this masterpiece that this step sequence was possibly the best I’ve ever seen.

[@rondocapriccioso]

the best short program in figure skating history. and the second is rondo capriccioso. always on top, yuzuru hanyu aka greatest of all times

[@user-en4es9tm8j]

"GIFT" at Tokyo Dome でのバラード第1番を観て、平昌五輪のパーフェクトな演技を観たくなりました。ケガが完治していないのに完璧で、羽生選手にしか成し得ないオリンピック２連覇という素晴らしい結果でした。羽生選手のバラード第1番は滑るごとに熟成しています。日本の、世界の宝と思います。

[@maurosalina6675]

Who else are watching his performances after announcing his retirement? A true legend will never be forgotten.

[@catyu4332]

🤗me

[@white_cloth]

He’s retiring from competitive skating, not ice skating altogether

[@hana7699]

フィギュアスケートの真実はこの演技を見るとわかります。 最高の感動を有難う！ 羽生選手最高です。

[@crystal3606]

我相信，羽生结弦，是花滑历史中最惊艳的伟大运动员。

[@hermansyah6197]

The only one beautiful skater in the world... His jump so special ,entry +no pre rotation.. The GOAT...

[@user-np5el2pr2w]

日本の誇り。史上最高のフィギュアスケーター。

[@carrichang160]

When Yuzuru skates, I see music,I see art ,I see beauty.He is the GOAT in figure skating.A true living legend.

[@yingyingyo1207]

Yuzuru: My skates and my mind are as one.
