He won the [[silver medal]] (second place) at the 2007 national championships. This earned him a spot to the 2007 [[World Figure Skating Championships|World Championships]], his first time ever at that competition. Mabee is a good friends with [[Jeffrey Buttle]]. They train together and have the same coach. Mabee's rise to the top of Canadian skating has been slow and steady. In the 2003/2004 season, he won the [[bronze medal]] at the [[Junior Grand Prix Final]]. He is the second Canadian man to ever win a medal at that competition (after [[Fedor Andreev]]). Mabee just barely missed a place to the [[2006 Winter Olympics]]. However, instead of going to that competition, he went to the 2006 [[Four Continents Figure Skating Championships]], a competition for skaters from countries that are not in [[Europe]]. He won the silver medal at that competition. Mabee is well liked by the [[audience|crowds]] in exhibition. He is known for his [[humor]] on the ice. He often chooses music that makes fun of himself or is light-hearted. At the 2006 Four Continents, he skated a program to ''Play that funky music, white boy''. At the 2006 Nationals, he started his exhibition with a funny song about his home town of [[Tillsonburg]]. ==Other websites== * [http://chrismabee.skatetoday.com/ Official Site] * [http://www.isufs.org/bios/isufs00004411.htm International skating union biography] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070826151556/http://www.isufs.org/bios/isufs00004411.htm |date=2007-08-26 }} * [http://www.skatecanada.ca/en/athletes/national_teams/team_profiles/profile.cfm?strregid=1007854&strcategory=single Skate Canada Profile] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20051110121129/http://skatecanada.ca/en/athletes/national_teams/team_profiles/profile.cfm?st
