Kat: Becs, I don't know about how you but I have really not watched a lot of figure skating at all this season.
Becs: I think this is the least figure skating I've watched in like a decade, almost. Granted there hasn't been as much, but even considering I didn't watch a single program until Cup of China, that's like a solid 8 months that I didn't watch figure skating.
Jason, how did it feel switching from such a big federation like Canada to such a tiny one like Australia? Was it a bit daunting at first?
Jason: Yeah it was a big decision that I had to make but [when] I started skating with Holly I think we both knew that it was a good partnership that we were going to create. I think it was the right decision to make, it was worth it.
So figure skating is a pretty non-stereotypical sport here in Australia so in comparison what do you say is the most stereotypical Australian personality trait you have?
Personality trait...well I love...not very personality wise but I guess stereotypically I love Vegemite. And everyone goes "Why do you..? Why do you like it?"
