Rinkside Refugee's Roll Call ;)

[TashaKat]

I know that lots of people are posting all over the place but is it possible that we could all post on one thread with our current and FSW names please? (I'm getting old and confused ;) ). I recognise quite a few people that are here but am not sure if I recognise others or not. Here goes:

[b:b4f203fe00][color=darkblue:b4f203fe00]I'm TashaKat and was TashaKat (and, at one point LynneChap) at FSW, I posted mainly on Rinkside but had the occasional outing to COT[/color:b4f203fe00][/b:b4f203fe00]

[melanieuk]

Lynne, there's already a "sticky" thread for all ex- Rinksiders/FSWers, posted by Flippet AND a Rinksiders' Check-in. :D
Now I'm getting confused with so many places to check in to! :roll:

I know, but it's not always easy to make out (well, it wasn't for me) who is who, who was who .... this one is just for new name/old name, nothing else ........ there are some posters here with similar names to the people on FSW but they aren't them ....... does that make sense?

[dani]

Dani == Danicox

[calypso56]

:lol:
Happy to be on board. I was Calypso 56, and have kept that name simply because I don't want to remember anything new! I hope lots of posters move over so we can have some good chats.

[leap of faith]

leap of faith = leap of faith

[Azlynn]

Azlynn = Azlynn/IrishDancerAndSkater (with the last changes to the board, it reset my name, I'd changed it about a year ago)

[jenlyon60]

I'm still JenLyon60

[jazzpants]

jazzpants (formerly jramberg) reporting for duty, Ma'am! :)

Yes, I've changed my handle. Need a change and this one's definitely appropriate for me!!! :P

Cheers,
Joanna

[Susan]

I moved on over too

[Integrity]

Hi, I did not post much at FSW but read Rinkside, COT and NV&A [b:390aeb19bb]several[/b:390aeb19bb] times a day. I'm an adult skater who has returned to Freestyle (after a long hiatus) and working on MIF.

I am thrilled to have found this new board...I get such good information from you guys about rules, competitions and the trials and rewards of adult skating!

Cheers,

Joanne

[emyh]

I am a refugee also. My user name is still the same.

This is how I feel about my left over right crossovers. :frus: If I can get them in the next week or two, I should be able to pass out of [color=orange:d2655b64f3]Alpha[/color:d2655b64f3] [color=#444444:d2655b64f3]and take the [/color:d2655b64f3][color=blue:d2655b64f3]Beta[/color:d2655b64f3] [color=#444444:d2655b64f3]class for the summer session of group lessons. I think it's totally mental, but I'm working hard! [/color:d2655b64f3]

You lucky dog!!! :D (Congrats to you, BTW) :) I'm still struggling with mine!!! :cry: But I'm getting closer. (I'm at least standing up straighter and can complete 3 revs or more. The problem is that it's now starting off on the BO edge and going to the inside edge... so frustrated...) :x

Patty, Kathleen, MissIndigo, and all you guys: Glad you found your way here!!! WOO HOO!!!

Cheers,

[icechick]

Hi all! I think that my FSW username was sk8mcs, but it's been a looooong time! Mostly, I lurked for awhile and then got too busy to do even that. Glad to be back and hear what y'all are up to! Still skating pairs and am working on my Silver MITF (ughhhh!) in order to take the Silver Pairs test (didn't make the deadline). Have a tryout soon with a guy from California with whom I've been corresponding for about 10 months. He loves lifts and throws as much as I do and really wants to compete. We'll see how it goes......

Maureen

[MissIndigo]

Welcome pairsk8r...from a fellow North Carolinian! I hear your "ughs!" about the MITF tests! I'm testing my bronze moves Feb 9th and then it's on to happy fun silver!:lol:

[Black Sheep]

I was dpgsk8 then and now, but I wanna change it to Black Sheep!

[Black Sheep]

Okay, it's official!
