Jason Brown, the American champion, was practicing a new routine with his coach and choreographer before the 2014 U.S. Figure Skating Championships.
He couldn’t believe it when his team suggested that he skate to “Reel Around The Sun” from Riverdance – he thought they were nuts!
Picking this music ended up being just right.
The crowd was really into his show and cheered loudly for every single part of it!
All eyes were on Jason as he skated. Riverdance is a dance show that involves a lot of footwork, so doing it on skates is super tough. Jason did an amazing job, and the crowd started clapping for him even before he was done.
Watch Jason’s reaction to the audience in the video below! More than 3 million people have seen his awesome performance. Once you watch it, you’ll totally get why!
