ISU Figure Skating Awards 2025 - Boston, MA, USA - 30 March

This is where we discuss figure skating and skating related items. How did you favourite skaters perform, and so on? However we never speculate on the private lives of skaters, like who might be going out with whom, because that is poison and is not tolerated here. A good guideline is that if it's not publicly announced, in the papers etc. then it's probably best to leave it alone. Is it a gray area? Then write to me and ask.

Their look - designed by Madison Chock and Mathieu Caron was bold, original, and impossible to ignore. 🔥

A perfect match for their Dune inspired program.
