The pair performed a quad [[Twist lifts|twist]] at a national competition in 2011, when Yu was 15 and Jin was 17 years old (or 13 and 22).<ref name=GS120307/> They finished 7th at the [[2011 Skate Canada]] and 6th at the [[2011 Cup of China]]. They then won the bronze medal at their [[Chinese Figure Skating Championships|national championships]].
