[edit] Biography

He began skating at age six. Davison resides in Drummondville, Quebec. The duo places 10th at the 2006 Winter Olympic Games and 7th at the World Championships in 2006. They won their first national crown in Nova Scotia at the 2007 Canadian Championships, yielding comparisons to Jamie Sale and David Pelletier in the process (with whom they had worked just prior to Christmas).

The 2006/2007 competitive season started for this pair at Nationals due to a scary on ice accident in the summer of 2006, which saw Jessica removed from the ice on a backboard. She then had knee surgery in September. The duo trained both short and long programs for nationals, while Bryce also trained for the singles event.

Davison is a member of the Hamilton Skating Club in Hamilton, Ontario. [1]

Davison had formerly competed with Claire Daugulis on the novice and junior levels, and with Jessie McNeil at the pre-novice[2] and juvenile levels. They were the 2000 Canadian Juvenile national champions.[3]
