Chen focuses on improvementAugust 15, 2010 - by Elvin Walker

In sport, a young life can change at the drop of a hat.A winning touchdown pass can propel a quarterback from obscurity into the mainstream. An unexpected Olympic gold medal can transform an also-ran into an overnight sensation.We all love a good story of unexpected victory. USA’s Nathan Chen, an eleven year-old sixth grader from Salt Lake City, Utah, is one such story.
At the 2010 U.S. Figure Skating Championships, Chen qualified to skate in the novice men’s division – as a ten year-old.Competing against skaters who were as much as eight years older than him, Chen snatched the national title with steady performances that showed glimpses of brilliance.
“I just tried to skate my best, and whatever happened, happened,” said the precocious Chen. ”I was really happy and excited and felt pretty confident.”
At just four feet five inches tall, Chen drew incited adoring giggles of ‘Isn’t he cute’ from the stands, but soon proved that he was more than just a little boy skating to Peter and the Wolf.Chen was a serious contender whose resume included the 2009 Intermediate Men’s silver medal and the 2008 Juvenile Boy’s bronze medal.
“I had been to the Junior Nationals before, but I didn’t really know what to expect,” Chen recalled. “Since winning, my life has changed because I am traveling a lot for skating.”
Since winning the title in Spokane, Wash., Chen has experienced more opportunity than most skaters achieve in their entire careers. To start, as a national champion Chen was invited to perform in the Exhibition of Champions, which brought him to the attention of David Liu, an artistic director of the skating show “Wi Wa”.
“At the Nationals exhibition, Kristi Yamaguchi and a lot of other skaters told him (David) ‘that was you when you were a lot younger’,” Chen explained. ”He thought about that, and he decided to put me in the show that he was doing.”
While skating in China, Chen was noticed by an American national living in China named Ted Wilson. “Mr. Wilson invited me back to China to skate an exhibition at Skate Asia… to skate two numbers,” said the accomplished champion. ”We will be there in August to skate the exhibition shortly after a competition in Southern California.”
Chen has also skated in shows in historic Sun Valley, Idaho, and was selected as the ABC News Person of the Week in mid February. “That was really fun and exciting,” Chen said of his award. ”They came to my rink and taped me skating and interviewed me. I got a football that was signed by Diane Sawyer from ABC News.”
Like many skaters, Chen followed his older brothers Tony (17) and Colin (14) to the ice at the age of three. Both of the brothers were involved with hockey, but Chen’s mother Hetty thought it was important for Chen to learn how to skate before he jumped into the hockey rink. “I saw them play, and I really wanted to play, too,” Chen said about his hockey playing brothers. “My mom said that I needed to learn the basics first, so she put me on figure skates, and I really liked it. I really liked all of the spins and the jumping.”
Seven years later, that decision is already paying off for Chen, and his skating is only getting stronger as he grows and develops his skating repertoire. ”I’ve been working really hard to get better as a skater since Nationals,” he admitted. ”I have added two triple Lutzes and a triple flip, and I will do all of the triples except the loop and the Axel in my programs.”
In the new season, Chen’s support team have decided to remain on the novice level in order to naturally progress in his development. “We wanted to make sure that Nathan has the opportunity to develop as naturally as possible,” Chen’s mother Hetty explained about their reasoning behind him remaining on the novice level for the 2010-11 season. ”At the junior level, the other boys are so much bigger and are quite a bit older than him. I don’t believe that he belongs on that level at his age at this time. It doesn’t really matter, though, what level he skates at because the goal is for him to continue to improve. Even though he is the novice champion, this is where we all feel he belongs at this time.”
Chen’s coach Genia Chernychova had a large part in the decision making process about what level he would skate this season as well. “We knew already before the National Championships that no matter what happened, Nathan would stay at this level,” explained Hetty. ”(Chernyshova) is his coach, and she thinks that this level is good for him.”
Chen isn’t eligible for Junior Grand Prix events until the 2012-13 season, so the decision allows the champion the opportunity to grow outside of the glare of high stakes events. The novice champion has entered several non-qualifying club competitions this summer, and recently competed and won the Glacier Falls Summer Classic in Anaheim. His total score of 124.53 points was more than twelve points higher than the second place finisher in the event. Chen’s next event will be Skate San Francisco at the end of the month.
This season Chen has selected to skate to Rawhide for his short program, and personally selected Hungarian Rhapsody for his free skate. “My coach picked a cowboy themed program which is from the movie Rawhide,” Chen announced. ”For my long program, I chose the music because I really liked it.”
And Chen’s taste in music could be described as refined, as the Utah native is also an award winning classical pianist and a competitive gymnast. “I have won local competitions in my age group,” said Chen of his piano skills. ”I am also a Level 7 gymnast.”
In addition to continuing to work with Coach Chernychova, Chen is also working with Kent Weigle on strengthening his skating moves. “I have worked very hard to improve so much about my skating,”he offered. ”We have been working on trying to improve the spins and add difficulty to them, and we are trying to get my footwork to level four.”
“I just hope to get all of my triple jumps this season, and make sure that everything is nice and neat,” Chen continued. ”I will try to perform my best at every event.”
Chen attends Hawthorne Elementary School in Salt Lake City, and will be in the sixth grade in the fall. As a part of the Extended Learning Program, Chen takes classes one level above his grade level. Outside of the rink, gymnastics, and piano lessons, Chen doesn’t have much free time, but he dreams big both in terms of his skating and with regards to his skating afterlife.
“I really want to skate in the Junior and Senior Grand Prix events and compete in the 2018 Olympics,” he admitted. ”After that, I would like to become involved in journalism or sports medicine.”
Other than his two brothers, Chen has two sisters – twenty year-old Alice is enrolled at Emory College and is a dancer. His nineteen year-old sister Janice is a student at Johns Hopkins University, and plays the violin and chess. Chen’s father Zhidong is a Research Scientist and his mother works as a Chinese interpreter.

Chen nabs junior men’s title at U.S. NationalsJanuary 25, 2012 - by Elvin Walker

Nathan Chen did it again. For the third year in a row, the 13-year-old Salt Lake City native walks away from the U.S. Figure Skating Championships with a gold medal around his neck. After winning two novice titles in a row, Chen captured the junior men’s title by more than six points, bringing the San Jose crowd to its feet.
“It was really fun,” Chen said with a shy grin. “I had a good time out there—it was one of my better skates.”
Skating to music from the soundtrack to the Godfather, Chen landed seven clean triple jumps, and earned level four on two spins to become the youngest junior men’s champion in recent history (at press time, it was being confirmed if he is the youngest ever).
“When I was really, really little, I saw Evgeni Plushenko skate this music, and I always wanted to skate to it,” he said. “This season seemed to be the right time to do it.”
The program ended with a snarl by the champion, with his hand reaching out to the audience, who was begging for more.
“I’ve been watching old skating programs of past phenomena,” he explained. “I noticed how much power and energy they had in their programs, and I wanted to do that. I really tried to bring that at the end.”
Chen finished with 193.90 points in the competition, a new personal best for the 7th grader.
Chen wins novice men's title in Spokane
(01/19/2010) - Now, when his brothers make fun of him about being a figure skater, Nathan Chen can pull out his gold medal and quickly shut them up. Chen fell twice in his Peter and the Wolf free skate Monday night, but the rest of his program was top notch, and his big lead after the short program held up to give him the 2010 U.S. novice title. That's the third straight U.S. medal for Chen, who won juvenile bronze in 2008 and intermediate silver last season. After beginning his program by bearing his "wolf claws," Chen fell on his triple Salchow and later hit the ice on his triple toe. He received positive GOEs on his other nine elements, however, including triple Salchow-double toe and double Lutz-double toe-double toe combinations, and his three spins were all graded Level 4. His placed third in the free skate with a segment score of 85.80 Chen said he started skating so he could take after his brothers, all of whom play hockey. "My mom wanted me to know how to skate, so she gave me rental skates," Chen said. "I liked it, so I kept on going." Chen said his brothers sometimes tease him for choosing figure skating over hockey, and while that teasing isn't likely to stop anytime soon (big brothers, you know), it's clear he made the right decision.
Chen repeats as novice men's champion
01/24/2011) - Nathan Chen wasn't happy with how he skated in the novice men's free skate at the 2010 AT&T U.S. Figure Skating Championships, and that fueled his determination to perform better in this year's event. Boy, did he. Chen blew away the field at the 2011 AT&T U.S. Figure Skating Championships, scoring 110.93 points for his free skate and 163.40 overall to claim the U.S. novice men's title for the second year in a row. He won the free skate by more than 26 points and finished almost 36 points ahead of his next closest competitor in the final standings. "I had a thought before the performance that I had to do everything as well as I could, and I wanted to show it for this nationals," Chen said. The Salt Lake City native opened his "Hungarian Rhapsody" free skate with a double Axel-double loop-double loop combination and went on to land six triples (two in combination) en route to the convincing victory. "I didn't focus on the pressure," Chen said. "I tried to think about how I'm supposed to do the program and how much effort I need to put in." While his jumps were superior, it was the way he expressed himself throughout the program that he was most proud of. "Last year after nationals I had a lot of shows. That helped me work on my performance," Chen said. "And I do ballet, and that helps, too.
Nathan Chen: Young Star On The RiseBy Elvin Walker
Published: 07/03/11
Ten-year-old Nathan Chen came out of nowhere at the 2010 U.S. Championships in Spokane, Wash., to become the youngest man, or in this instance, boy, to win the novice title in the history of the event.
He returned as the heavy favorite in 2011, and the then 11-year-old headed home with another historical title to his credit. He is the first skater in U.S. history ever to claim two consecutive crowns at the novice level.
“This time I am much more satisfied with my skating than I was the last time,” Chen said. “Last year I missed a few things, and that made me work very hard so that I could show that I can do more. I was really nervous in Greensboro, but overall I felt more prepared this year.”
Coach Genia Chernyshova and Chen’s mother Hetty Wang decided to keep the skater at the novice level for a second season, despite his previous success.
“Last year was his first in novice and he wasn’t supposed to win,” Wang said. “He is just a little boy, and I didn’t want him to be rushed. We thought it was in his best interests to let him develop his skating at his own pace rather than push him to move into the junior ranks before he was ready.”
Following his 2010 victory, Chen was named ABC’s Person of the Week and was featured in a three-minute segment in a televised broadcast, where he shared his story with the world. “I really don’t know how that happened,” he said. “It was fun to talk with them, and they gave me a football.”
Because of his on-ice charm, Chen has become a highly sought-after performer in the United States and Asia.
Last year, the Utah native had the opportunity to skate in a show in Hangzhou, China. He was the youngest performer in the show.
“I was able to meet my grandmother, an uncle and a cousin when I was in China,” Chen said. “It’s really fun to travel all over to skate. Since nationals, I have skated in shows in Ohio, Illinois and Utah.”
He was recently awarded the U.S. Athlete Alumni Ambassador Award. Only novice and junior skaters who have qualified for the U.S. Championships are eligible for the award, and candidates must submit essays outlining their volunteer work in their local communities.
“I just wrote about how I like to help out at my school,” Chen said. “I help clean up the lunchroom and pass out things at school.”
Chen will move up to the junior level next season, despite not meeting the minimum age requirement to compete at the Junior Grand Prix level. As part of his development, he has sought out jump specialist Rafael Arutunian and travels to Lake Arrowhead, Calif. from time to time to work with him.
“I am working on doing all of my triples with a triple toe on the end,” Chen explained. “I am also working on triple Axels now, and have been doing them out of the harness.”
He hopes to add a triple-triple to his programs next season, and his goal is to qualify for 2012 nationals.
In the meantime, the sixth grader is looking forward to his summer vacation. “I will be skating in some shows in Sun Valley again,” he said. “Other than that, I will play with my brothers and ride the new bike that I got for my birthday.” Chen turned 12 on May 5.

Nathan Chen makes history in GreensboroJanuary 24, 2011 - by Elvin Walker

At just eleven years old, Nathan Chen has accomplished something that no other US men’s figure skater has ever done: won two U.S. men’s novice titles.
Last season, Chen arrived at the U.S. Championships as an unknown, and stole the show with enchanting performances that placed him at the top of the podium rather unexpectedly. This year, he arrived in Greensboro as the overwhelming favorite, and skated away with the title by more than thirty-five points.
“I’m really happy about (the performance),” said the pocket-sized Chen. ”After the warm-up I was a bit scared, but during the performance I was pretty confident.”
Chen demonstrated that he has the complete package in his Hungarian Rhapsody program, landing six triples and displaying rubber band-like flexibility in his spins to earn a whopping 163.40 points the competition. His total makes Chen the highest scoring novice men’s champion in U.S. history.
“I didn’t really focus on that,” Chen said of attempting to defend his title. ”I just paid attention to what I needed to do in my programs, and how much effort I need to put into my programs.”
Representing Salt Lake Figure Skating, Chen nailed both of his triple Lutz attempts, and also completed a triple flip, loop, Salchow, and toe loop.
“I told myself before the program that I just had to do everything in my program,” Chen remembered. ”I just really wanted to show everything at this nationals.”
