Figure Skating

Olivia Smart and Adrian Diaz skate their gala routine at
the 2019 Skate America in Las Vegas, NV.

Figure Skating has been a part of my life from the time I was about four years old. I've never skated with any great passion - I have horrible balance and have only donned skates twice in my entire life - and I'm no great insider, but I like to ramble from time to time on the sport.
