Yay Moonvine for starting a post with a simple true declarative; we do all love Kirk!

Welcome to those who first saw Kirk's awesomeness at US Nats. I was first captivated in September at the Riga JGP. Who is this young showman and when can I see him again?

So glad he did well at Nats and was invited to the gala.

I first saw him in the spring international he was sent to last year and I was immediately taken with his amazing personality! I was like "where did he come from"? Glad he keeps getting more and more exposure. He truly is a rare gem!

He's delightful!

Y’all, I can’t with this kid. I congratulated him on his IG - though I think someone made him change it from “under armor is the best” to “happy Kirk” and he personally thanked me for the stuffie and said he loved it. I’ve never had a skater do that ever!

@iluvtodd and @el_henry he won the domestic side of the Philly comp last year. I hope he skates on the International side next year and I hope y’all come. He is not to be missed!

I hope Kirk goes to Cranberry Open this year. I want to see him live.

I found the Egna Spring Trophy videos where I first saw him last spring.

Here's the whole advanced novice boys short program... Kirk is at about 36 minutes in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PN3hVuRR8Rk

And the free skate... Kirk is at about 1 hour 16 minutes in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvxWeApaWwE&t=4956s

It's funny that they spelled his name Krik and was announced that way too!

I was walking in the concourse (too much grease and salt) and saw Kirk with Brian Boitano and I think his father. He smiled so I went up to him and congratulated him on his skate and that he was awesome. He was so excited. Hah - I looked at Brian and said "you were pretty good, too!" (talk about embarassed)
