Figure Skaters Make Special Delivery to Paralympian Tatyana McFadden
Tatyana McFadden was getting anxious. Her racing chair was broken and a replacement was stuck in Japan for six months because of pandemic restrictions on international shipping. Finally, her chair arrived via FigEx. That’s U.S. Figure Skating Express. The American team flew home from the World Team Trophy in Japan last week with silver medals and a cardboard box containing McFadden’s new carbon racing frame. “We all felt like we were a part of bringing some precious cargo home,” said team captain Jason Brown. They posed for a photo with the box at Tokyo’s Narita Airport, beaming behind their masks. “I was like, ‘Please get a picture of everybody,’” said McFadden, “because I’m so grateful for them, that they took this in and they’re going to be bringing it back to the U.S. - because I’m out of options and I need this wheelchair.” McFadden posted the photo on Instagram, writing, “When we say we are one team we are really one team.” She thanked the U.S. Figure Skating team and each of the athletes, adding, “International shipping has been tough during this time but you all made it happen.”

Karen Chen, Rise || World Team Trophy 2021
karebearsk8: above is a lil photo dump & below are a jumble of words reflecting on my season(s)! 🙈 . this season has been incredibly special for me. after the 2018 Olympics, i honestly had no idea if i wanted to continue in this sport & when i finally made up my mind, i pushed myself a bit too fast too soon which led to a stress fracture which took me out of competition for a whole season. being off the ice made me realize a few things, one being that i still love skating sm & two being that there is more than skating. the following season, i made the decision to apply to colleges & try prioritizing my goals a little differently. this led to a tough year of attempting to balance a full load of classes @cornelluniversity while training full time, but i seriously don’t regret it. that year of experimenting with my limitations made me realize that i can’t prioritize skating & school while expecting myself to excel at both, hence this year i took a leave of absence to focus on skating & give myself the best chance of making the Olympic team. this was yet another hard decision, because i loved being on campus & having that college life, but i knew that the competitive years i have in this sport are limited! i’m extremely thankful that my hard work & perseverance has payed off during this unconventional season & v excited to keep this momentum flowing into the Olympic season! thank you so much for all the continued love & support! i will always give it my all! 💞

Fremont’s Karen Chen enjoys a breakout season while eying a medal at the Winter Olympics in Beijing next year.
Karen Chen’s figure skating issues had nothing to do with her graceful glides across the ice. Nor was it about her ability to land artful triple jumps when she felt confident.
But since winning the 2017 U.S. championship, Chen had been on a downward spiral that just about pushed her out of the sport.
Then came the season disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic that ends this week at the World Team Trophy competition in Japan.
Chen, 21, has been one of the major comeback stories a year before the Beijing Winter Olympics by vaulting to the top of U.S. skating.
But don’t expect Chen to celebrate her revival. As good as it feels, Chen said she knows it will take an even bigger effort to earn an Olympic medal next year.
“Wanting to be a medal contender I do need a triple axel, and hopefully more,” Chen told the Bay Area News Group.
