Lol, I thought it was a new clip because it was just uploaded.

Not you alone. But since I was already lying under the table deeply impressed (deeply enough) with The Lutz, I decided that I would watch it (some mere triple axel) sometime later.
Returning to The Lutz. As TAT wisely supposed in the recent interview, there is only one person (some girl from a distant future, I forgot the name) who might know what Mao is really capable of.

OH! the lutz made my day!!

wow
I am sooooooo happy to hear the lutz news
And Clair de Lune seems like such a pretty program, can't wait till TEB!!!

Mao is a true fighter!!
What a strong lady you are, Mao! I love you!
TEB, please come soon!!

Mao seems in good shape! Can someone translate please?
thanks for posting!

It's just practice, but it was so beautiful I nearly cried. This music is perfect!!!

Oh wow! Brilliant!
Mao becoming the moonlight...

I absolutely loved the practice clip and the interview with Lori. The intricacy of steps and the beauty of the music is amazing.

Mao looks great. Her jumps are so light! I can't wait untill TEB.

Fumie also looked great, congratulations on her win! Too bad that Yukari didn't have a great skate... I hope she'll be back in form soon.

The videos about Mao in Russia are like pokemons - you have to make some effort to ~gather them all~. ^_^ Especially, with a slow internet connection. -_-
Thanks for all the links, kiki, FigureSkating36 and everybody!

I laughed aloud!!
Anyway, it's good to see that Mao seems to be in good shape and has great confidence.
Thanks for posting too!

(For those who can't read Japanese (anyone? ^_^) as well as recognize spoken Russian. -P)

1:00 - TAT: YES! This is the pure lutz!

1:17 - TAT to the Japanese filming crew: ...Tomorrow you will broadcast to the whole world this jump! Exactly this, the third one! ^_^

1:42 - TAT: ...Turned into the beautiful lady! She became more rich in her expressive means.

2:47 - TAT explains how to do some particular step sequence move.

3:30 - TAT: Every day jumps two 3A. And a very big percent... 70% of successful execution (of 3A) in the program.

3:57 - TAT: The fact that she will jump two 3A this year (the next part is a bit unclear, I wonder how Japanese guys translated it. But it seems that TAT says "this is for sure") this is for sure. She will be the first lady who will be attempting to conquer this height.

5:14 - TAT: She likes what she is doing very much. ...And in front of such people there is always a very big resposibility. ...Because for her this is the only way.

thanks summervie!

I did that: http://maoasadafanwebsite.com/mesimages/news/maoperfectlutz.bmp

The reason why I did that is because I'm tired of people who keep insisting that it's a flutz, it is a real lutz with a real outside edge and this is the proof!
