Weir started skating at age 12 after watching it on television and felt inspired by the performance of 1994 Olympic
Champion Oksana Baiul. He landed his first triple jump within a year and made it to the Junior Olympics in both
freestyle and pairs (with Jodi Rudden) on the juvenile level in his first year of skating. Weir won the 2001 Junior
World Championships, the first time he participated in the event. Weir practised equestrian sports but gave it up in
order to focus on skating. He has a brother (four years his junior) who plays soccer in his school team. After
withdrawing from the 2003 US Nationals in the middle of his Free Skating due to injury, Weir bounced back in 2004
to claim the title.
