WHERE FRIENDS AND ICE MEET Figure skating is a skilled sport that takes constant development. It has been said by many skaters that there is always something new to work on. It has ALSO been said that having friends helps in the skating process for many reasons. A few to mention are support, friendly competition, and encouragement that friends lend to each other
Since skating is a huge investment not only in a monetary way, but also in the way of time, friendships that are developed on the ice tend to be long, respected, and cherished friendships.
