Members I Am A Swede Posted February 1, 2018 Members Share Posted February 1, 2018 Ice Dancing has always been my favourite discipline in figure skating. This is one of my all-time favourite programs, Gwendal Peizerat and Marina Anissina dancing to The Man in the Iron Mask. It still gives me chills. So beautiful.

Members DAMfan Posted February 15, 2018 Author Members Share Posted February 15, 2018 Remembering the 1961 United States World Figure Skating Team. On February 15, 1961, a tragic plane crash killed all the members of the U.S. Figure Skating Team. Also, friends, family, judges, officials, and coaches were killed. The skaters were traveling to the World Championships in Prague, Czechoslovakia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted February 15, 2018 Members Share Posted February 15, 2018 As if I didn't already miss Scott Hamilton as a figure skating commentator, we're stuck with Johnny Weir. He makes me miss Scott all that much more!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 15, 2018 Members Share Posted February 15, 2018 I've always thought he was overhyped and he underdelivered as a skater. His Russian propaganda also made me wary. I wonder if he is seething inside over all the attention Adam Rippon has received. I saw this mentioned in an article a few days ago. I'd never seen it, but it truly is beautiful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted February 16, 2018 Members Share Posted February 16, 2018 Scott Hamilton IS there, and he has been asked about the men in the singles competition on the 34th anniversary of his own win in Sarajevo. I could listen to Scott all day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted February 21, 2018 Members Share Posted February 21, 2018 My heart sank as Mirai Nagasu fell while trying to make the triple axel in the short program. 😔 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DAMfan Posted March 26, 2018 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2018 All Nathan Chen had to do was skate onto the ice, stay upright, and do one or two quads to win (he did 6) all the other men fell.

Members Soapsuds Posted March 26, 2018 Members Share Posted March 26, 2018 I wanted to see the men's competition but missed it. Was it the same competitors from the Olympics? Wish he'd done that at the Olympics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
