Is he in Toronto? A park? https://www.instagram.com/p/B0zcPKqHyub/
Those are the same pics he posted a few days ago on Twitter. I think they're from Sun Valley.
But this one was posted this evening by a Japanese skater who is in Toronto. Those are some tight curls he's rocking! https://www.instagram.com/p/B0zlp4IJB6b/
Question for skaters. He's wearing skates in that pic and carrying dumbbells. Are dumbbells used in on-ice training?

When I spoke to Jason briefly at a meet and greet last summer, I commented that he has really great parents. He looked up and straight into my eyes and said "I do have really great parents! I am SO lucky!" He is the product of a loving, supportive family with a strong work ethic and a positive outlook on life. What resonated most with me was the determination not to over-celebrate. I think that is really important.
I have met him a few times, one thing that strikes you is when he speaks, he ALWAYS looks at the person whom he is speaking to/or the person who asked him the question right in the eye. That is another sign of their extraordinary upbringing
Given the direction of the sport today, Brown knows quads will have to be part of his own arsenal. He now works on them every day and he is hoping to have one in each of his programs next season. The quad Salchow is likely to come first (Brown had that quad in his long program last season), but said, “we’re exploring more of them, and honing in on the technique and the base. Hopefully, it pays off.”
A new Jason article posted by International Figure Skating:
Jason Brown: Risky Business
The article does a good job covering all the changes Jason made last season and looks ahead to this season.
Quad update:
Jason's flip is so beautiful that I hope it's one of the quads they are exploring!
