Reminders, Hints and Fun!

Everyone needs a little help when it come to skating. 

Here's a few reminder and tips for all the figure skaters. I hope you find them to be useful!

                Competition Checklist:

        * Skates: Cleaned and polished, new lace or washed laces, cleaned skate guards

        * Dresses: Competition and Back-Up dress in garmet bag, Warm-up sweater and gloves

        * Tights: No holes, preferably over the boot tights, and an extra pair of tights

        * Tapes/CDs: 2 copies, 1 good copy turned in, backup in skate bag or with coach

        * Make-up: blush, shadow, lipstick, mirror, hairspray, bobby pins, hair ties, brush, comb, hairpiece

        * Walkman: for pre-event practice

        * Keep Warm: Bring a long or warm coat wear, preferably zip or button up (don't want to mess up that hair), snap or track pants, gloves or scarf

        * Look your best: presentations make a big impact, keep tidy and neat

        * Hints: When you arrive check in tape, ect., and check in with coach, Begin warming up with a buddy or by yourself by stretching, running through jumps and program (walkman), give coach your back up tape, please do not walk around with your dress half on (skirt hanging out, sleeves hanging down), Eat three hours before you skate, eat carbs like cereal, pasta an d bread, NO JUNK!, Good for parents to have a small sew-up kit, also don't leave skate and dresses unattended

        * Don't Forget: don't forget your TAPE, pick it up and don't forget your skates
