Oh no, I hope it's not the case for Kevin.I seem to recall that former 'quad king' Timothy Goebel went through similar problems at the same age and never recovered his jumps. At first he believed it was a boot problem, but in the end it turned out his entire body structure had changed subtly in a way that made it impossible for him to regain control of his jump technique, and he was forced to retire.
Kevin's jump technique has never been all that stable to begin with---his axel is awful, and his quads have always been marginally UR. If his body structure has undergone some subtle change with maturity, that could make it all that much worse.
