Nathan Chen

[lurkz2]

I'm nervous. I was nervous at idf because his practices weren't great but I'm nervous this week because his practices are too good. Time for more cleaning.

Anyway, Good luck Nathan. Do your best!

Same here!

Can't bear to look at the other sites please keep me posted here.

101+88 fell on 4lz step on 4T

Defended his title. By quite a bit. I expected it to be closer.

CONGRATS TO NATHAN!! :luv17::luv17:

 

[sheetz]

Dammit! And he's been killing it in practices. Oh well. Good job. And slay those finals!

 

[oatmella]

Not perfect, but good enough and I am sure we will see further improved programs at Nationals!

That was quite stressful

And good luck to Nathan on his finals!

 

[discode]

He was so perfect in practices and again messed up a bit on his 4T. I totally expected the 4lz issue though. Still I'm so proud of him. 6 GP wins in a row

this is his season best score I think? those levels helped in the SP! fs score just slightly lower than SA.

I think it is good that he isn't peaking just yet. The levels have been improved, now it is time for the jumps. The timing is perfect because now he has time to be with Raf for more than just a few days.

 

[oatmella]

He got 280.57 at SA - so a season’s best score here!

Still can’t quite believe he’s managing to do all this - beyond impressed at what he’s accomplished this season so far and how he has handled everything:luv17:

 

[GGFan]

He still performed with 4 quads in the program! I'll take it :hap57::hap93:

His did so well during the run through, scarily well. Something is not right today with that music thing.

“Thank you guys for supporting US figure skating and me.” That is sooooo Nathan.

Congrats to our severely sleep deprived boi. Have some good sleep next week and get ready for finals.

 

[oatmella]

Maybe the music delay threw him off ...

Ugh but at least it didn’t turn out to be decisive

 

[discode]

4.4 GOE on his 4F. That's a massive improvement right there. No more edge calls.

Got all his levels too. In both programs.

Won 9 out of his last 10 events

Nathan Chen says he's looking forward to going back to SoCal during the Christmas break and training in his old rink with his teammates. "That's one aspect of my skating I've been missing I think"

Nathan looks so cute, happy, and tired here!

I am definitely not happy with the Lutz (he missed), I stepped back on the toe so that I would not miss out on a combo. I definitely need to bump this up to next level, this is not quite where I wanted it to be. But again this is the first of the long season, I have done with more than three quads. Although, I didn’t hit the Lutz in technical regards, it is a more difficult program than I am used to. (on the event overall) I mostly wanted to improve on what I already had in the last competition in improving whether it be adding a new jump or cleaning things up. For the next competition, I will be working on completing the (quad) Lutz.
