Joshua Farris
Joshua Farris (born January 6, 1995) is a retired American competitive figure skater. He is the 2015 Four Continents silver medalist, the 2013 World Junior Championship gold medalist, a two-time Junior Grand Prix Final medalist (silver in 2012, bronze in 2011), and the 2010 U.S. Championship junior silver medalist.
Joshua Farris was born in and a native of Renton, Washington. At the age of eight, he was diagnosed with dyslexia, which may be connected with a concussion he sustained as a child.
Farris moved to Colorado Springs in mid-2007 and resides there to this day. He enjoys playing guitar, reading, hiking, and camping.
Farris began skating at age five after his mother took him skating for his birthday. He moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado, in mid-2007 to train with Tom Zakrajsek and Becky Calvin.
Farris won his third national title when he won the novice gold medal at the 2009 U.S. Championships. He then competed at the 2009 International Challenge Cup in the Netherlands, where he won the silver medal at the junior level.
He made his ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) debut the following season. He was assigned to the JGP events in the United States and Turkey, where he placed fourth and fifth, respectively. At the 2010 U.S. Championships, he won the silver medal at the junior level.
During the 2010–11 season, Farris was assigned to the JGP events in Romania and Great Britain, where he won the silver medal and the gold medal, respectively. This qualified him for the 2010-11 Junior Grand Prix Final, where he finished in sixth place.
Farris then decided to move up to the senior level nationally. At the 2011 U.S. Championships, Farris fell hard on his left hip while training during the second day of practice. The fall resulted in a torn abductor muscle, but he decided to compete despite the pain. He placed thirteenth after a shaky short program. On the day between the short program and the free skate, Farris went to a restaurant and suffered anaphylactic shock due to an allergic reaction. He was taken to the emergency room, where he stayed until 3 a.m. He decided to compete in the free skate, where he had several shaky landings and three falls. He finished in twenty-first place. He later learned that he had broken his fibula and sprained a tendon when he fell on his second triple Axel attempt. Following this competition, Farris decided to switch coaches to Christy Krall, with whom he had already worked, and Damon Allen.
