Jeremy Abbott, the 2009 U.S. National figure skating champion as well as the Grand Prix Final champion, skated at a benefit fundraiser last weekend in Little Falls, New Jersey. Jeremy skated two programs -- Treat by Santana (his short program from last season and one of my favorite programs of all time, choreographed by Kurt Browning) and debuted a new show program to Daniel Bedingfield's Gotta Get Thru This, choreographed by Tom Dickson. Jeremy told me that the new program is unlike his other exhibition numbers which incorporated bits and pieces of his long, short and other show programs. This is a truly original piece that he was very excited about and received great feedback on already. Stay tuned for my extended interview with Jeremy coming up on Tuesday Friday (sorry guys, we're experiencing technical difficulties)!

Thank you, Susan, for Jeremy's performance! May I ask whether you recorded other programs too (like Johnny's for example), or just this one?
Posted by: Anna | April 12, 2009 at 04:58 PM
We recorded all of the skaters from that benefit and will be releasing video over the next month, including Johnny's Weir's program and Jeremy's other program. Stay tuned!

I love the new program. Captivating. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Susan! Can't wait to see Johnny! :D

I love the way Jeremy fiddles with the entrance and exits of his jumps and also the edges he uses when he skates. I love it when skaters do that, there are few who do.
Susan, who is the wonderful person operating your camera...they are very lucky!

Aaron -- Oh my goodness, you should be doing commentary! I just realized that Jeremy does fiddle with the entrance and exits, AND I've only watched it 50 times in the process of editing it. My camera person is Joe and I will let him know that his work is much appreciated.

Susan, thank you so much for being so kind to share these interviews and programs of Jeremy Abbott, my favorite US skater competing right now. His new exhibition is terrific, I think. Then again, I may be biased, as I love everything Jeremy does. <3
The work of you and cameraman Joe is very much appreciated, Susan . . . LOVE your videos! :)
