The first time Victor successfully landed a quad flip, he was twenty years old. Up until that point, Yakov had been adamant that he wasn’t ready. But Victor had heard a cute little Japanese boy who was starting his first year at the senior level passionately declaring that if anyone was going to land a quad flip that season, it would be Victor Nikiforov.

Victor had never wanted so badly to prove a fan right.
