Fred's, (Used to be Barb's), Board

There is no live stream available of this event and apparently the results in English will only be available after the event.

Some skaters/teams are not there and some are there but without coaches - this is a result of illness, injuries, and/or travel restrictions. The pairs team that trains in Canada with Bruno Marcotte, Miura/Kihara, will not be present but they have been given a "bye" by the Japanese Federation.

According to the protocols at https://www.jsfresults.com/National/202 ... ta0105.pdf Yuzuru Hanyu did the 4A as his first jump and stood up (i.e. didn't fall) but it was downgraded, earning him less that 1/2 the base value of a 3A.
