I love watching theses top notch figure skaters doing their programs in a none competitive environment such as stars on ice. They make the skating look effortless and so polished. To Meryl and Charlie.....Bravo!
Had a degree of anger that SOI skipped Atlanta....that is until I watched the RU-vid videos. Don't get me wrong, I think it's great that it promotes the sport and gives them a chance to make a few bucks, but it's ultimately anticlimactic after Olympic competitions and frankly, a bit cheesy.
Almost every skater on stars on ice skates more easier than their competetive programms, they don't have so much time to practice for every soi performance like they do for the competetive programs
