This week, work is winning the war of work-life balance. |
SkatingForums is the only US ice skating forum that is centered around the adult skater. (There is a similar UK skating forum.) Figure Skating Universe and Golden Skate are great forums, but they're mostly centered around fans. Skating Forums is where you can go when you have a problem with a jump, spin, or even learning to skate, or you have a question about your child's jumps, spins, or skills.
If you are not a member you can't see all of the 'members only' sub-forums. To see the On Ice, Video Vaults, and Non-Skating discussions and a few others, you'll need to register. The On Ice forum has a weekly practice thread where you can post the results of your skating over the last week. There's also a Rink Rants and Raves thread where you can blow off steam. There are two video vaults: one for skaters with videos of their skating, and the other devoted to videos of tests with judges comments included.
It's free to join, and free to stay.
I have recently returned to skating after a 20yr hiatus, and started a blog about my journey with all it's challenges: 'Diary of a Figure Skater, Coming Full Circle' @ liveloveskate.com. I invite you to have a look to see if it something your readers might be interested in.
