On The Edge... Again

The last time I skated regularly, you needed 2 pair of skates, a scribe and skated patch. Triple jumps were almost unheard of, so were Bielman spins. Twizzles were only done by ice dancers and Ronald Regan was just elected into office.


Fast Forward 32 years. Starting January 2, 2012, I am back on the ice doing something else that was unheard of .... Adult Figure Skating. We had "coffee club", which was like adult swim, but there was no opportunity for testing or competition.


Update 2021. It has now been 9 years since I began adult skating. I have not competed since 2016 , but my blog is still going. My YouTube channel has over 1.76k subscribers. That’s just crazy!

Bay Area Skating

I am home from my week long trip to California. I visited a friend in Santa Cruz and family in Oroville (Northeast of the Sacramento area). While I was there I took advantage of getting my boots fixed at Harlicks and I was able to squeeze in 3 days skating at 3 different rinks. This is the video from my last stop at the Vacaville Ice Sports complex.  Great ice.  Warm rink.  As you can see I have no gloves on!
