Lengthy article about Nathan Chen. Lots of good stuff.

I love Nathan's SP. It's a strange combo, but I think it works well. I definitely think he can play spoiler. Though I'm curious if he's trading the two quads and just not doing the 3A right now?

The most notable thing about his programs is the 2/6 layout and how it screams for isu to change rules banning that bunching.

Wouldn´t it be fun if Nathan wins nationals in US?

Maybe those with more technichal eye can tell, he looks faster to me than Nam Nguyen? Or is just my imagination...

Having seem him live, he is quite speedy for his size.

Thank you.

Has ever happened that a skater competing for the first time in Nationals won the tittle?

Has Nathan grown at all or is he still only about 5 feet tall? I would think he'd start growing like Nam did at his age last year.

According to the article he is about 5 foot and wikipedia saids he is 4.11, so I guess he has grow about 2 inches? Maybe he will be tiny like Shoma.

One inch difference between 4'11" and 5.0' tall

They said "about" it could be that he is 4´11", it could be he is 5.0 or he could be 5´01, still he is tiny..

Sorry, thought you meant he was 4'11 & is now 5.0.
