Why do I strongly recommend NOT to use the following terms and statements:
"X has artistry"
"Y is an artistic skater"
"Z can combine technique and artistry"

Unlike technical skills, which you can learn and master and make them your own, artistry is not something that you can "have".
Your skills can leave an artistic impact on the audience, but what person A might perceive as artistically valuable, might not be true for person B.

I promised a summary thread about my top 4 Yuzu programs in the different program components and here it is.
I’d like to give some general comments about Yuzu’s programs and skills and what I observed while creating these threads. #PCSanalysis#YuzuruHanyu𓃵

Yuzu’s greatest strength here is the high complexity of his skating movements and ability to vary the speed through his knee action and edge control only. He hardly needs basic stroking to accelerate, which is amazing.
