I think of Christopher Bowman every Christmas because of a story he told of skating to the "Silver & Gold" of the arena to reach everyone of the people in the crowd. RIP

I'd say he showed his potential, thankfully caught on film, so we can enjoy!

Is the first combination a triple toe loop, triple toe loop? Trying to train to tell all the jumps from each other! 😅

Triple flip, triple toe.

What a tragic waste of talent and natural ability. After a long struggle with drugs, he finally succumbed and died a few years ago. One of the most naturally-gifted skaters ever. Unfortunately, he never lived up to his full potential. R.I.P. Chris
