Trophee Eric Bompard-Chan and Song bring it

Winner Patrick Chan did three quads

Silver Medalists Nan Song also did three quads.

Bronze medalists didn't do a quad. He may have attempted a quad salchow.

Great display of quad triples from Chan and Song. With better PCS for Song this could become closer.

Rippon attempted a quad Lutz- it was downgraded worth 4 points.

Cup of China- Great performance by Nan Song!

Except for the great showing of Nan Song Cup of China was not very good. There was just a failure to deliver and be consistent. There was a good program by Abbott and he did attempt a quad so that was a signal that he will try to have the jumps this season. He has a good program but the jumps are not there yet.

Nan Song did a quad in the SP and LP but was really kind underscored in PCS.

Oda says he wasn't doing quads because of injury. He did some great 4/3's last season.

Skate Canada 2011!

Patrick Chan won Skate Canada again successfully doing two quads while rotating another that he fell on. Javier Fernandez did two quad toe loops and one quad salchow. Impressive GP performance by him and the first time he did a quad in a SP. At worlds 2011 he did the toe loop and the salchow in the free skate.

Sui/Han of China did a quad twist in their free skate.

First competition where four quads were attempted. Takahashi tried the quad flip and Rippon tried the quad lutz. Brandon Mroz had his attempt ratified at a non-ISU event which has been the standard in the past.

Skate America

Skate America immune to the so called rebirth of quad-mania again as winner doesn't even attempt one! Last year you had attempts by the winner but not this year.

Good for Kozuka trying for one in the short. He is trying to expand his technical as he aims for Chan.

Great performance by Kevin Van Der Perren who came close to gold!
