Pairs skating and singles are two different things. Although some skaters have achieved this successfully, it is a very difficult transition. You're looking at double work.

I wish I could say it's easy, but honestly, to get ready for a big championship is not as easy as it seems.

I wish I could compete again, but my good feeling is, these competitions are better as exhibitions.

I use Graf Edmonton for boots and John Wilson blades.

I have a lot of different stages in my life when training has been easy or hard. Now, it seems that I have been training for so long that it has become almost second nature to me.

Now, I don't make decisions as fast as I used to.
