Nathan Chen

Rocker Skating SA preview:

If there’s anything that this very first Grand Prix is sure to bring, it’s unpredictability. It’s the post-Olympic season - for some, a season of rebuild; for others, a season to take it easier early on; and then for Nathan Chen, a season where he tries to go to college and be a world class skater at the same time.

GOLD Nathan Chen USA - The new World champ is, by no means, any kind of heavy favorite this week in Everett. And that was evidenced by Chen’s so-so performance at Japan Open a couple of weeks ago, his getting-my-feet-wet event of the season. Skate America will be his first real test of the new season, and a lot will be told in his short program. If he had a good short, he’s likely in for a repeat title here. It will be interesting to see what technical elements he will try to pull out at his first Grand Prix of the season.

Skate America schedule is up on NBC Sports Gold now. Good luck Nathan!
 
Nathan‘s ISU page is still outdated with no updates to the programs of this season. There was no mention of world champion in the summary at the bottom either.

The information for the Bio section of figureskatersonline is not quite up to date with Lori listed as the choreographer for FS.

http://figureskatersonline.com/nathanchen/bio/

Choreographer: Shae-Lynn Bourne (SP), Lori Nichol (FS)

The programs overview is also about programs from 2017-18, however, the 2018-2019 season does listed the two new programs, even though Boston Brass is listed for Caravan.

Official practice starts on Thursday. Don’t know if he would head directly to WA from Yale or would go back SoCal first for a little break. Hopefully he would have some quality rest, and good sessions with Raf before Friday’s competition.

Good luck, Nathan!!!
