One of the many joys I have as a videographer of figure skating is to see young boys and girls achieve their ultimate dreams. To make it to the Olympics is just unbelievable. I started recording skating in 1989 and have probably recorded close to a hundred thousand skaters that I'm sure their dream was to go to the Olympics.
One skater I recorded from a very early age was Sasha Cohen and she was an absolutely beautiful skater who won the silver medal at the 2006 Olympics. I could always tell she was going to do great things in skating.
Watching Nathan Chen tonight win the gold medal tonight was such a personal thrill for me. A couple of years ago I started working at the Great Park Ice Arena in Irvine where Nathan trains and have made ice for this gentleman many times. I feel proud to have been a small part of his journey.
But going back a little farther my company Hurd Video Productions recorded Nathan at age 8 at the Junior Nationals in Salt Lake City. I thought I would share what a future Olympic gold medalist looks like at an early age.
Such talent now and then and the Kiss and Cry at the end is fun too. Enjoy!
