Daisuke performed well enough to get the bronze medal in the 2010 Olympics even after falling on his quad attempt at the beginning of his last program giving Japan its first Olympic medal in a men’s singles figure skating event.
Learn to Skate Faster!
Takahashi is a student at Kansai University in Osaka. In Osaka, Japan, he trains under coach Utako Nagamitsu.
Way to go Daisuke! Everyone in the Kansai area of Japan is proud of you, foreign and Japanese alike!
