Hochstein headed to Omaha with a new team at the boards

Grant Hochstein has made some big changes from last year, moving across the country and finding new coaches for the first time in his career.  His best Senior finish came in 2010 when he finished 7th and he has finished 12th the last two seasons.  He won the pewter medal at Eastern Sectionals to qualify for nationals.  He talked to me about his coaching change, triple axels and quads and his goals for nationals.

Since last season, you've switched coaches to Karen Kwan-Oppegard and Peter Oppegard and moved to California.    Why did you decide to make that change and what effects has it had on your skating?  
Switching to Karen and Peter has been a really great thing for me. It was a difficult decision for me, having been with Lindsay since the beginning, but I knew it was something I had to do. My career had kind of plateaued and I just felt like it was time to do something about it. I wasn't okay with being in the middle anymore. Lindsay was my first and only coach, and my coach for 13 years, so there was a lot to think about, but ultimately the decision was made, and I know it is the right one. I will always love and respect her. That being said, I love training in Artesia. There are so many hard working, competitive kids there, and I feel like it's exactly where I want to be at this point in my career. Karen and Peter have been great for me. We reworked a lot of my technique and made it simpler and more pure. To be honest, at first I was very intimidated by them, but they are really incredible coaches. I've also loved training with Caroline [Zhang]. I've never had a high level skater to push me, so it's awesome. We help one another on the ice and I think it is pushing both of us to be better. I've only been here for 9 months, but it feels like it's always been home.

Tell me about your programs this season.  Why did you choose those programs?

One of my goals for this season was to let go of control. I usually like to be the one making all of the decisions, but this year, since I was making a change, I was determined to let Karen and Peter have all of the control in the decision making process. We did email back and forth music ideas while I was still in Detroit and I think we had decided upon the short program before I moved out to LA. I think it was the best decision to let them pick the music and choreograph the programs around the new image they wanted to create for me.

You didn't receive any international assignments this season.  How has that affected your preparation for nationals?

This is the first year since 2008 that I haven't received an international so it was kind of hard to deal with. The positive thing, however, was that in trying to get an assignment I worked my butt off during the summer and got in the best shape of my life. All I could do was be prepared in case they decided to call on me. Not being assigned hasn't really changed my training for nationals. If anything, it has motivated me to skate extra well at nationals to earn a spot at an international next year.

The triple axel was a major goal for you last season.  How are you feeling about that element going into nationals?  Do you have anything new you've been working on for this season?

The triple axel is coming along quite nicely this season. It has been a big hurdle, but I've succeeded in landing it in every competition this season. Each and every day in practice it feels like it's getting stronger and I'm excited to land my first one at a national competition. During the fall, I was working really hard on quad toes and even landed half a dozen of them. However, when I was having blade problems from October through sectionals, I lost a lot of ground on it, so I won't be putting it in here like I had hoped to.

You received a Level 4 on your step sequence in both your short program and free skate at sectionals.  How do you go about putting together those segments to get the maximum amount of points?

Levels have always been kind of an easy thing for me. I would like to think that I'm a pretty versatile skater so I just go out and do whatever Karen or Peter tell me to do. I'm very blessed to have the two of them as choreographers and I think Karen put together a couple of awesome step sequences for me.

Is there anything in particular that you feel has been holding you back in the past and how have you been working to overcome it?
I don't know if there have been things I've been holding back on, but making the move to California really has been a great thing for me. Training with such high level skaters every day has been a blessing for me and helps me realize every day that I'm a great skater, and once you believe it, anything is possible.

What are your goals for nationals?

Nationals is always a tough competition because everyone seems to put out their best programs of the season. Ideally, I would love to be back up in the top 8 again, like I was my first season as a senior. More importantly though, I want to go out and skate two solid programs for myself. Moving to California I realized for the first time that there is much more to life than just skating. I want to be able to get off the ice and be completely happy with the effort I put forth out there. I'm skating for myself again.

Anything else you want people to know?
I guess that I just want people to see the joy I get from skating. You never know how long your skating career is going to be, so at this point in my career I am just working as hard as I can and enjoying every minute of it.

Hochstein brings heart and positive outlook to nationals

Grant Hochstein is a 21 year old who trains in Detroit, Michigan.  This college student finished 5th at Ondrej Nepela Memorial earlier this season.  He has won pewter medals at nationals at the Intermediate and Junior level.  He won silver at Midwestern Sectionals to qualify for nationals.

After battling the flu last season at nationals, Hochstein is armed with a triple axel and ready to contend with the best.  He talked to me about the triple axel, Michelle Kwan and loving skating.

How would you describe your skating to someone who had never seen you skate before?

I would like to think of my skating as simple, yet refined. I skate from the inside out and really put my soul into what I do. Skating is my passion!

You competed at Ondrej Nepala Memorial earlier this season.  What did you learn from that experience? 

Nepela was kind of a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde competition for me. My short program went really well, I skated clean and finished 2nd. The long didn't go quite as planned and my body kind of quit cooperating with me about halfway through. Needless to say I was less than satisfied. However, the experience brought about a new sports psychologist who has really been instrumental in the retooling of the way I look at competitions and the way I train for them. Sometimes you have to fail in order to succeed.

One of your main goals this season was to get consistency on the triple axel.  How has that element been coming?  Are there any other elements you've been working on in preparation for nationals?

Yeah, a consistent triple axel has really been the main goal of this season. It has come along really well too. I've stood up on it in at least one program at each competition, which is a statistic that I'm really proud of. Before this year I had only stood up on it once (2011 Midwestern Sectionals Free Skate) and had never landed any in competition. I don't have any other new technical tricks this year, but I'm pretty darn happy with that one because its been a long time coming.

Earlier this season, you said you were aiming for a top 6 finish at nationals.  How do you feel about your chances at this point in the season?  How do you hope nationals will set you up for your short term and long term goals as a skater?

A top 6 finish is something I'm really striving for and I finished 7th in 2010 so I don't think that it is overly ambitious. Obviously there are a lot of great men at this years Nationals so I think that whoever brings their "A" game on that particular day has a shot. In terms of my season to this point, there have been a lot of ups and downs and I haven't really had the results I've been looking for, but I feel focused and really prepared for this championship. I hope that I can go and do my job and continue to show myself as a contender for one of the Olympic slots in 2014.

Are there any other skaters or events you're looking forward to watching?  

I think the ladies event is going to be wicked this year! I'm really looking forward to it and it will probably be one of the only events I will get to watch. Its very similar to the men's this year where you have a lot of great skaters and whoever brings it on that day will walk away with the title. I'm also planning on trying to stalk Michelle Kwan and get to meet her somehow. I think its so cool that she's being inducted into the US Figure Skating Hall of Fame at this year's Nationals. She's such a legend! To meet her would be such an honor as she has always been my single source of inspiration, both as a skater and as a person. I will probably have a heart attack!

Is there anything else you want people to know?

I guess I just want people to know that I truly love skating. It isn't always easy and there are some days that I don't really feel like going into the rink, but there is always something deep inside that pulls me there. And to be able to skate at an elite level is such an incredible thing and I thank God every day for giving me such an incredible gift. I hope that I can make people who come to Nationals or watch it on TV or online feel how much I love what I do. Oh...and also, I love my dog, Kingston :)

U.S. Nationals Senior Men's Preview

Jeremy Abbott was the only U.S. man to qualify for the Grand Prix Final this season.  He has a very entertaining swing themed short program and a classic lyrical free skate.  He has started putting the quad back in his programs but hasn't had a clean free skate yet.  He has the capability to put together two amazing programs and compete with the world's best but hasn't been able to do so recently.  He still has some of the highest scores of all the U.S. men and if he can stay on his feet should have an easy victory.

Adam Rippon competed in two tough fields on the Grand Prix to finish 4th at both events.  He switched coaches in the off season to Sato and Dungjen who are the perfect fit for his style.  He also trains alongside Jeremy Abbott, giving him a competitive environment in practice everyday.  He has been working on a quad lutz and getting consistency on his triple axel.

Max Aaron set a huge score in qualifying with quads and triple axels as well as solid component scores.  He is competing in his first senior nationals after winning the junior title last season.  If he can keep the same pace at nationals he has a great chance at winning a medal and making a big splash in his senior debut.

Stephen Carriere is making a big comeback this season, winning bronze at Nebelhorn Trophy.  He has a quad as well this season.  He scored below his international marks at sectionals, mostly because of his short program.  If he can skate clean in his short program, he should have one of the top scores at this event.

Ross Miner won his first Grand Prix medal this season, taking home the bronze from NHK Trophy.  He has a very easy style on the ice and is enjoyable to watch.  He isn't working on a quad this season but his other jumps are very consistent.  He was a surprise on the medal stand last season but he is dedicated to improving his skating and I wouldn't count him out this year.

Joshua Farris has a lovely short program but his free skate hasn't quite gelled this season.  He has one of the top scores in this field even though he competed as a junior internationally.  With additional elements he has the potential to increase his score even more.

Richard Dornbush is the reigning silver medalist and scored well on the Grand Prix, landing quads for the first time in competition.  His triple axel has been his nemesis all season and he's struggled to land it consistently in his programs.  He changed his short program shortly before the Grand Prix started and while it was already showing great potential, the extra training time will only allow his program to improve.

Others skaters to watch include Keegan Messing, who won gold at Coupe de Nice, Jason Brown, the Junior Grand Prix Final Champion, Douglas Razzano, the Finlandia Trophy silver medalist, Jonathan Cassar, who finished 4th at Ondrej Nepela and Grant Hochstein who finished 5th at Ondrej Nepela.

Hochstein aims for flu shot, consistent triple Axel

I interviewed Grant Hochstein last week for Figure Skaters Online.  He is currently in Slovakia competing in the Ondrej Nepala Memorial and sits in 2nd place after the short program.

Talking to Grant Hochstein is like catching up with an old friend.  The Detroit based skater has an easy going demeanor, likes to crack jokes and will share the best and worst parts of himself. And if there is one thing you need to know about him, it is that his love of skating is absolute and his dedication is unmatched.

The road to the top hasn’t been smooth for the 21 year old, but each set back only seems to make him stronger moving forward, something he hopes to show this season. Figure Skaters Online chatted with Hochstein as he prepared to leave for the Ondrej Nepala Memorial Trophy, Sept. 29-Oct. 2, in Bratislava, Slovakia.

Ondrej Nepala Memorial will be Hochstein’s third senior international event.  “My main goal is to get out two really strong programs,” he said. “For the most part I’ve been doing that this season.  To keep building and keep being consistent and get that triple Axel out there this season.  A medal would be nice, after the heart wrenching finish last season [at Finlandia].”
