A Round-Up of Off-Season Skating News
I know, I know… I’ve been a terrible blogger of late. In my defense, it is the summer. But, that doesn’t mean nothing is happening in the big bad figure skating world. Here’s a rundown of some rather gossipy off-season news:
- Lauzon and Dubreuil retire from ice dance after a remarkable 13-year career
- Kristi Yamaguchi wins dancing with the stars. Doesn’t seem like a big stretch to me!
- Tonya Harding spills all in the new book, “The Tonya Tapes“
- Olympic ice dance gold medalist Oksana Grishuk recovers after being given a date-rape drug
For those looking for something with a little more substance, you may want to take in a practice session at the BC Centre of Excellence at 8 Rinks in Burnaby, BC. You can catch Mira Leung, Kevin Reynolds and Jessica Miller and Ian Moram hard at work over the summer months prepping for the upcoming season.
