Figure Skatewear Tip Of The Day

When you travel with your skates and costume, take the costume in your carryon bag. Some people ship the skates Fedex overnight if they don't have a direct flight. This is for domestic, international, take the skates with you and check them. I have had clients over the years get to the destination and the skates were not there, but at least if you have your costume, you can figure out what to do about the skates once there.

Figure Skatewear Tip Of The Day

Take an existing freestyle dress that you are no longer competing with but still fits and have it changed into an ice dance dress for testing if you are working on your dances. Changing over the skirt is very easy and will save you time and money.

Figure Skatewear Tip Of The Day

If you can't get to the rink because of bad weather, visualize a clean program over and over again for about 20 minutes. It has been shown that visualization exercise can maintain or even improve a program. This also works with individual elements such as a jump or spin. You do have to know how to visualize it correctly though.
