Of course not.
His chances of winning Nats just fell considerably though.

Yayy! So happy for Taka!

I think someone in this forum said a while ago that Taka needs to start winning major competitions so that he and Mao can do pair performances like she did with Dai after Worlds. Why did his breakout season have to coincide with Mao's technique re-working season? haha

Yah, I said that. It may not be this season but it may happen next season and it will be after Mao turned 21

Dai is below 80?? Uh-uh!

Even if he did, the only other possible candidate for the 3 spots will be Yuzuru, and he'll have to win or place second here to be seriously considered. The likelihood of that with Tono and Kozu around is extremely unlikely, not to mention Dai does have a good chance of making a comeback tomorrow.

His SP score was 74.78.

The other Dai, DaiM
3Lz+3T
3A step-out
3F

69.39 and in 4th.

Dai is only 4.16 points behind Yuzuru, He will be able to overcome that in LP for sure.

Tatsuki Machida

3A
3F-3T
3Lz hand down

73.75.

Takahito Mura

3F-3T
3A
3Lz step-out

72.33.

I do hope they will broadcast Machida and Mura too.

A ceiling camera which moves 360 degrees around makes me feel sea sick.

I really hope so! And thanks clovera! When is Nobu?

Tono

4T fall
3A
3Lz-3T

Fall on the SLSS. Oh..dear.
It won't be that huge of a loss if the 4T was rotated but the tech specialist is our good friend Shin Amano.

77.48 and currently in 3rd.

Bleh...I'm afraid for Dai now.

2 falls , he must be really nervous. Kozuka has a shot to win tomorrow!

Dai's jumps were not good at all ... but his steps were as fabulous as ever, although he said his legs didn't move as good as usual in the interview after the game.

He's got a big target to become the World Champion again next year.
He'll put it through tomorrow. Let's keep fingers crossed for him!
