I wouldn't say the US men have fallen behind in content. Of course, Jason has a longstanding disadvantage, and Pulkinen needs to up his quad game. But you have skaters like Chen and Zhou with consistent quads, Hiwatashi has a solid 4T, Paniot can land several types of quads, and you have up and coming juniors who can do 4S/4T.I like Johnny and Tara as well. And I loved Scott Hamilton. Couldn't stand 'Dick and Catty Peggy'-will never forget Dick saying that Tiffany Chin was 'pretty good for an Oriental'. (Cringe). (Tiffany Chin was actually a great jumper back in the day, but Dick and Peggy were not fond of 'jumping beans'). I think Johnny has also done everything he can to sound the alarm on US skaters falling behind in tech content.
