Just so good... even his basic crossovers are fantastic, that 3F was sublime, his spin positions are spectacular... but the jumps are definitely "early season" mode. I'm not worried - Jason has brought it for Nationals the past few seasons without a problem - but it is frustrating to not see these programs when clean.
 
Jumps aside, when I watch Jason it's like... he's a great skater, these are some really quality transitions, but it doesn't really elevate the music and the program to the level I expect from him. Could be an issue with stamina and physical conditioning too - he's disguising it, but it's clearly not there.
 
So happy to be able to see Jason's beautiful st sq and spins. I know there are problems with the jumps lately, but I still savior the beauty of his artistry.
