Two quadruples. Seven triples.
That's either a heavy duty night out, or a killer free skate.
Patrick Chan knocked back his two quads in the first 40 seconds of his free skate en route to winning the World Championships in Moscow. He went on to land six triples. We will forgive him a "stumble" on his triple axel.
