Chapter 206: The 05-06 Figure Skating Grand Prix Finals Open!

Yuuri scratched at his notebook, calmly examining the shortcomings of his party this time.

Victor leaned over to his side, looked at the Japanese on the note, and read slowly: "4T supported the ice with one hand, and 3lo didn't connect properly when doing the jump because 3lz passed the week..."

He just stumbled and recognized the words on it, and Yuuri, who really couldn't read it, would teach him along the way. In the end, Victor sighed: "There are so many small problems. I usually don't realize such subtleties when skating. You The control and perception of one's own body is really powerful."

Yuuri sighed helplessly: "After all, since I was a child, I practiced something like "Sky Monument Hand", which requires extremely high strength control, and many ways to control strength are common."

Tian Bei Shou is a Tibetan secret book that Yuuri was pressured by Anatole to practice. He also had his hand bones broken for this, soaked a lot of medicinal materials, tossed about 10 years old before he achieved a small success, and when he activated the source beads, he could achieve great success. By the way, because the hand has been reshaped and has been practicing hand kung fu, the pumpkin boy's hand has always been slender and carved like suet jade, which is undoubtedly the most delicate part of his body except for the eyes up.

It was only then that Victor remembered that his boyfriend once showed him the miraculous skill of how to use the strength of his upper body to break the wall without using the source beads.

Yuuri continued to complain about himself: "But no matter how good it is, what's the use of controlling it, once my physical strength is insufficient, I will still deform my movements."

Victor comforted him: "After all, you are still young, and it is normal for your physical strength to not keep up with those big players. Lilia's program for you is also very full, and it would be difficult for an adult player to do it. Yuuri can make such high-quality Completing technical moves under such circumstances is already remarkable.”

This is very true. Many young contestants actually have very few transitions in the program, so the program seems to be empty. The reason for this situation is that the young contestants are not capable enough to perform transitions while performing transitions. In addition to performances, it also has something to do with their physical strength (there are also many players in the adult group who have cut off the transition because their skills can't last).

And Yuuri's physical strength seems to be so poor that he has to search for oxygen bottles all over the floor after free skating, but he is actually a master who can run half a marathon in one go (speed is not guaranteed), if he is not so stubborn I vowed to complete the performance of the program given by Lilia, but if I cut off some connections, it might look easier than other contestants after the program is completed.

After all, if Lilia's program was replaced by George and Victor's skating, it would still be exhausting, and Yuuri still has an asthma debuff.

Yakov's evaluation of Yuuri's physical strength is - Yuuri's physical strength is absolutely at the bottom among first-line players, and he is stronger than his peers in the youth group. As long as he keeps exercising and his physical strength increases further after development, the second half of the journey will not be a problem.

But why didn't Yuuri know this?What he really worries about is that he may not live to develop at all, so he can only start to shine before then.

Victor could understand Yuuri's insistence, and he didn't talk about persuading him to cut the connection or reduce the difficulty. He just smiled and handed him the towel, and said, "Wipe off your sweat."

Yuuri took the beige towel embroidered with the pudding dog pattern, and said doubtfully, "This is not my original one."

Victor's black line: "You used to wipe your face and skates. Even if you know that you will wash it on time, it's better to take two separate ones."

His boyfriend is always a rough guy in such a delicate place. Every time he sees him take a face towel to wipe off the ice skates, and then turn the towel over to wipe his forehead after wiping the ice skates, Victor feels unappreciated.

Yuuri just oh and said thank you.

Victor sighed helplessly again, thinking that being with Yuuri, it is really meaningless to give out expensive gifts (after all, Yuuri is richer than him), some jewelry is given to him, and he may not wear it out, on the contrary, it is this kind of practical Yuuri will often take out small gifts and use them, giving him a higher sense of presence.

This means that if Victor wants to give gifts, he can’t choose those that are too expensive and impractical. Although more expensive and practical things such as home appliances, mobile phones, and computers can also be bought as gifts for Yuuri, the problem is that Yuuri has already Just bring your own, and most of them are better than what Victor can give. For example, before the mobile phone is in Yuuri's hands, he will ask White to modify it first.

So after so long, Victor hasn't spent even a fraction of the love money that Amy sent him for Yuuri.

Afterwards, the two talked while walking, and Yuuri complained that he hadn't cleaned his show in a complete sense since he started competing at the age of 6. In comparison, he really envied Victor, he didn't even know when he would be able to clean in a real sense once.

Yes, even when he performed "Schindler's List" in the free skating at the Universiade, which was in the best state last year, the big guy still didn't clean. He fell off the ice several times in the second half, and his rotation was displaced.

Clean here means that all movements are completed without mistakes, there are no gaps and mistakes, and the GOE scores of all technical movements are positive.

In fact, the vast majority of figure skaters have never cleaned in their entire careers. Most of the men's singles in the first echelon have no more than 3 cleans, and there are very few who can do short programs and double cleans in free skating.

The reason why Victor has always been favored by people is also related to the number of times he cleans, because he not only has extraordinary jumping skills, but also has a more delicate emotional expression after falling in love, he is also stable.

This guy who is so big that he can still sleep 1 minute before the game, since the beginning of this season, no matter how he expresses the connotation of the program, his technical movements have not made any mistakes, and he has cleaned two short programs. One free skate.

In the last season and the last season, he cleaned more times, and the number of double cleans was 4 times!

Even though he is at the stage of development compared to last season's World Youth Championships, he is still more stable than other contestants. This stability is currently the only one in the figure skating world!

Even Yakov wondered if Victor was loaded with a cheat called "King of Figure Skating" when he was born.

[Puhuang cleans once in free skating (double clean in 05 Grand Prix final), Pirates cleans once in free skating (16 World Championships) without double cleans, cleans once every day (17 World Championships double cleans), up to duck cleans Once (the 16th World Championship double clean), Ha Niu clean 3 times in free skating, 11 times in the short program, the difficulty of clean can be imagined. 】

Victor comforted him again: "But Yuuri can win even if he isn't clean? You have a vulnerable constitution, and your blood and blue bars are so short, so don't be too harsh on yourself."

Yuuri shook his head: "But Chris, Zachary Zhang from Canada, and the black Frenchman named Pierre are said to have done quadruple jumps, and Chris's rotation is very powerful, and I was in good shape in the first half At that time, the spin level was similar to his, but he was thrown away in the second half, Zachary Zhang’s skating was not inferior to the senior group, Pierre was strong and jumped high.”

Victor said in his heart that even if they practiced 4T, your technical difficulty reserve is still better than theirs.

勇利不仅拥有4T,还拥有3A、3A+3T、3lz+3lo、3lz+3T、3F+3lo、3F+3T,以及3lz+1lo+3S。

Chris's jump is stable, but he doesn't have the highest bv (basic score) jumps of 3lz+3lo, 3F+3lo, and 3A+3T. It is said that Zachary Zhang's 3A has only succeeded once, and it is still ice-supporting. Even jumping is not as good as Chris, and Pierre has never practiced 3A.

The most important thing is that Yuuri has mastered Josie's ancestral delayed turn and raised hands when jumping. He can even delay turn and raise his hands when jumping 3A. With these technical bonuses, his GOE has always been very beautiful.

The little pumpkin has a great advantage, be confident, you will definitely win this wave!You are Wei Qia's most promising opponent!

Yuuri said again at this time: "The most important thing is that I want to be able to clean and win even when my opponent is clean. This kind of absolute victory from technique to performance is what I pursue. Otherwise, I will win." There is always such a regret after winning the gold medal.”

That's right, when he won the Universiade last year, it was obviously a good thing, but many of his opponents were convulsed in the arena. In the end, Yuuri felt that he didn't feel happy enough to win, so the expression on his small face was not excited enough when accepting the award.

Victor thought that Yuuri's desire to win was really strong, he wouldn't be interested in winning if he wasn't an opponent in his heyday.

It's really Yuuri who has a perfect personality + intelligent personality in the late stage, but this guy's personality should have a lot of artistic personality mixed in. Thinking about it, his strong pursuit of the beauty of figure skating and victory is also understandable.

Forget it, Yuuri knew about the competition, Victor changed his mind and said: "Go eat, your source beads have been fused, your internal organs are no longer hurting, and your appetite should come back, right?"

"Yakov saw that your medical examination report was not pleasing to the eye. He said that he would increase your hemoglobin to a normal index, as well as increase muscle and bone density. Eat more?" @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

Hearing this, Yuuri thought of something: "Speaking of this, there happens to be a place I want to take you with, let's go."

He took Victor's hand and trotted happily away from the arena, and Victor happily followed him without asking where he was going.

Chris packed his sports bag, glanced over there, and sighed, "Those two are so nice."

Like-minded, evenly matched, shared sincerity after experiencing life and death together, and both are in the best years of their youth, even though he himself is still a teenager, Chris still wants to say that those two people met the best at the best age people.

As long as they don't lose their wings due to development, injury, etc., they must be able to start a new era together, right?A bleak era that sets off others.

If you want to see the light on the wings that cover the sky and the sun, you have to work ten times and a hundred times harder.

With such two people, it's no wonder that there are so many supporters for this pair of CPs on the Internet. Although few people know that Yuuri is someone, and they have no intention of announcing their relationship, Chris has also read the book "RUBYEARRINGS".

Because of its high popularity and ranking first in the book sales list in the United States, "RUBYEARRINGS" already has French and German versions, and hard-core book fans also know that the Russian, Japanese, and Chinese versions of the book will soon be pushed to the United States. market……

I heard that because the forum moderator who originally published the article insisted not to accept the literature of underage xx, and it will be published later, so this book has deleted a lot of comparisons, and relatively strong content, but there are original resources Not many people are willing to share, otherwise Chris is really curious about how the author flirted with Victor and Yuuri.

Coach Wells called out at this time: "Chris, let's go."

Chris turned his head and waved his hands: "Yes, here we come."

Because his studies, figure skating training, and career base as a survivor organization are all located in St. Petersburg, Yuuri seldom returns to Japan, so this time he returns to Japan to compete, and Riya's father and Hiroko's mother, who are busy with the hotel business, can't get away. All the other relatives and friends who could come came.

Although Mari and Minako-sensei were the ones who came here specially for him, they brought something that meant a lot to Yuuri—a tonkatsu bowl made by Hiroko's mother herself.

After Hiroko’s mother cooked the food, she put it in an insulated box and asked Minako and Mari to bring it over. Although the taste is different from freshly cooked food, it only takes 2 hours from Fukuoka Airport to Tokyo Haneda Airport, and it only takes one hour to meet Yuuri here by car. , the food is not easy to spoil in December, so it is still ok to eat.

Yuuri hugged Minako and Mari, Mari sized him up and nodded in satisfaction: "That's right, the media said you were seriously injured, I almost flew to Russia with my parents, now it seems you've recovered It’s not bad, and I’ve grown taller.” @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

The 175-year-old girl with a height of 18cm gestured: "Sure enough, she has grown taller."

Yuuri pulled his sister's hand: "My sister is also very tall, she can be a model."

Zhenli waved her hands again and again: "It's not suitable for me to be a model, too big breasts don't look advanced enough."

On the other side, Minako greeted Victor and asked a few words about Yuuri's recent physical condition and how he was during training. She has already purchased tickets for an area with the forum fans in advance, and will cheer for you together when the time comes. .

The atmosphere was friendly and harmonious, but when Yuuri pulled Victor and said to the two parents that "I have dated this boy", the two ladies responded with "Oh, you are done".

There was no surprise at all, and Mari patted his younger brother on the shoulder, looked at Victor and said, "Then you guys have a good time, I will go to Shota's office to pick him up first, and we will meet again during the competition."

So they went away.

Victor remembers the look in Zhenli's eyes when he left, which can be translated as "Since my younger brother has not had a good life for a few years, and you have lived and died together so many times, I will accept you as my sister-in-law for the time being", but if you say it is "If you dare to be sorry to my brother, I will send you to Santuchuan in advance" seems to be okay.

Yuuri didn't expect that Mari's level would be so easy, he blinked, and took Victor back to the room, the two of them sat on the carpet, you and I shared the pork cutlet rice bowl, and there was only one pair of chopsticks, so Victor held Yuuri took a bite of the lunch box, fed Victor a bite, and shared his favorite food with his lover in a leisurely manner.

Victor who was being fed was happy, and he fell directly on Yuuri's lap after eating. Life is nothing but bliss.

In the end, if Yuuri hadn't set the alarm clock and urged him to get up in two hours so he could go to the afternoon lottery, Victor could actually sleep all afternoon with the pumpkin in his arms.

Yuuri has now accepted the setting of sleeping in the same bed with Victor, although Victor's best is to chat with him under the quilt, and after the chat, he will sleep with his arms around him, but this is also a great benefit, okay? ?

In the past, if he could hold Yuuri and sleep all afternoon, Victor would be beautiful for a few days afterwards.

He said sadly: "The luck of survivors is generally sluggish. With the luck of the two of us, is it meaningful to participate in the lottery? Is there?"

However, there is no point in going. The players in the lottery must be present, even if it is just a formality.

Later, Victor and Yuuri got the first appearance as expected, and Jimmy also participated in the draw for the ice dance appearance, and also got the order of the first appearance.

George has already been unable to complain about the luck of his husband and his two juniors. He is particularly curious about one thing, that is, if the two juniors are in the adult group at the same time in the future, and then draw lots, whose luck will be worse.

But as far as Yuuri is concerned, the most innocent person in this lottery is Jimmy's female partner, that is, his cousin. Since she partnered with Jimmy, that unlucky girl will always be the first one in the lottery (in figure skating competitions, However, the first player to play will be scored by the referee, lest the first player score too high, and the subsequent scores will run away).

It is worth mentioning that after the promotion of the new figure skating rules, the traditional six-point system was abolished and replaced by a computer-based scoring system. Points, which means the contestants cram more technical parts into the show (which is why Yuuri's show is stuffed with a bunch of transitions).

So in the last two seasons, injuries have started to spread among more players. Not to mention George, the strong contender for the championship, last year's World Championship champion Lambir also suffered from knee injuries. Players such as Cohen suffered hip injuries.

Competitive sports challenge the limits of human beings, and there is always a price to be paid for challenging the limits. Jumping is an action that is very prone to injuries and accumulates injuries. The wear and tear on knees, ankles and hip joints is unimaginable for ordinary people.In a quadruple ice jump of normal height, the knee is subjected to an impact of about seven to eight times body weight.

If you make a mistake in jumping and fall, it will be even more dangerous, because no one knows what kind of injury you will get when you fall. There are also shoulder dislocations and fractures. Yuuri, who has been injured all year round, has experience in falling. The movement of falling, getting up and sliding is so smooth that people can't complain. Victor once said that when it comes to coping ability after falling, Yuuri is already a master.

Yuuri, who has a vulnerable physique, thought about this, and glanced at Victor again. This guy is stable not only mentally, but also physically. In order to jump 4T and 4S, George directly wears out his meniscus so much that he has to take painkillers in every competition. Victor, who has also practiced 4T and 4S, is still in good physical condition. There is no wear and tear, but he doesn't even need to take medicine. He can recover after a set of massage, hot compress, massage and acupuncture. Such a good body is really impressive. Other athletes suffering from injuries are envious.

A glass man like Yuuri can only do his best to regulate his technique to avoid injury, so every time he lands on the ice, as long as he stabilizes, he will slide out smoothly, because this can minimize the impact on his knees. He also has the problem of jumping on a skewed axis. As a result, his hip joints sometimes hurt a little, and now he is forced to correct it by Yakov.

The 2005-2006 season figure skating Grand Prix finals are about to begin, and this is the only A-category event before the opening of the Turin Winter Olympics this year. In a sense, it is not an exaggeration to call it an Olympic outpost.

Some players with serious injuries will choose to retire directly, and then only compete for the Olympic quota in the domestic competition, and then prepare for the Olympics with all their strength, and some prepare to further stabilize their Olympic status through the grand prix finals.

On December 12th, Thursday afternoon at 8:14, the last match of the short program of the youth group was going on on the ice rink, and Yuuri was doing warm-up training with the help of Alexander.

He stretched first, and then he knelt on a large yoga ball and played a game of toss and catch with Victor. The movements were cute, but the expression of the little pumpkin was serious.

After finishing a short set of balance training, Yuuri stood on the ground, took a deep breath, and raised his foot to do a 3A, with light and smooth movements.

He will participate in the men's singles short program of the youth group after 30 minutes, while Anfisa will participate in the women's singles short program of the youth group at 15:40, and Victor and George will participate in the adult men's singles competition starting at 18:30 For the short program, after the men's singles competition in the adult group, the ice dancers in the adult group will compete in the short program at 19:40.

After Yuuri got off the yoga ball, Yakov sat on the ball with a serious face, watching Yuuri, Georgi, and Anfisa, the three little guys who were not far away from the game, warming up.

After a while, he got up and said, "Yuuri, it's almost there, over-warming up will wear you out too much."

Yuuri responded, and while listening to Yakov balabala, he sorted out his own image for the last time. His hair was combed by himself, and the hair that was longer on the temples, which might be bouncing around and obstructing his vision, was braided into twists. The back of the head is tied into a bunch with a white feather headband.

He didn't wear much makeup, but he still touched his lipstick according to Lilia's suggestion before, intending to add some color to his bloodless lips to make his complexion better.

Victor immediately said, "I'll do it."

With one hand resting on Yuuri's chin, he carefully traced the shape of his lips. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

"Style ok, warm up ok, pumpkin ok."

Victor fished out a pair of diamond earrings from his pocket, hung them on Yuuri's earlobes, and pumped his fists.

"Accessories are ok, Yuuri must win!"

Georgi next to him: "..."

Hey, your boyfriend is sure to win, have you ignored me as a junior?I also participated in the competition, okay?If it wasn't that I couldn't beat your boyfriend... I would really beat you, an unscrupulous brother!

No matter what, Yuuri's boyfriend and fellow students all offered him sincere blessings. With excitement in his eyes, Yuuri nodded to them, turned around and walked towards the player aisle with Yakov.

Yuuri thought he had gotten enough chicken blood at this time, his heart was jumping with joy and excitement, a wave of heat surged around him, his competitive state had reached its peak.

At this moment, Yakov's voice rang in his ears.

"Listen, Yuuri, I don't know if saying this to you before the game will affect me, I don't like to say nice things, but you shouldn't mind hearing me say this..."

"Cathy was a girl when she participated in the youth group competition for the first time. At that time, Teacher Josie was 88 years old. He was too old. A cold made him unable to get up. I took Cathy's place instead of him. At the coaching bench, Cathy was ambitious at the time, but her grades were not satisfactory. Cathy, who has not entered the developmental stage, lacks strength and lacks physical strength, which is the same problem as you now."

"But she never thought of giving up figure skating at that time. What I want to say is that you have the same firm belief as her, and your stubbornness in some aspects is exactly the same, which is a headache. You also don't know how to give up, and you have an indomitable struggle. Spirit, overcome all difficulties and dangers, and never bow your head in the face of any difficulties, I have always been proud of you."

Yuuri stared wide-eyed at the old coach's profile, while Yakov patted him on the shoulder, turned and pulled back the curtain at the end of the passage.

"Go, this is your moment."

The boy in the white swan Costen walked out of the contestant aisle. He looked petite and slender, and cheers and flashing lights swept over them in an instant.

Yuuri looked at the ice and smiled sincerely. He took off his shoe cover and handed it to Yakov, shook hands with the coach, and said a word to him. Eyes, holding the baffle with one hand, and pressing the chest with one fist, as if to suppress the heartbeat that was about to exceed the limit due to excitement.

"The first contestant to appear is Katsuki Yuuri, 13 years old, representing the country Japan. His short program is "Death of the Swan", choreographed by Lilia Bakanovskava."

Yakov watched the child sliding towards the center of the ice and sighed in relief.

What Yuuri said to Yakov at that time was-"Thank you, Yakov, in my heart, Kathy is the best mother, and you are the best coach in the world."

The author has something to say:

It is not without reason that Fei Dae can teach so many excellent apprentices, his apprentices really like this old fairy boy
