I was curious if there were many people here traveling to warmer Florida for the Winter Classic? How many events are you entered in?

Also just curious how big is the competition really? Apprx how many competitors per group? Does ISI divide kids up by age and level or just level?

I went to the Winter Classic last year when it was in Miami, Ohio - just to watch, not to skate It was a decent-sized competition. I think there were more skaters last year due to the Winter Classic title than there are normally at the Miami comp each year. I watched the FS 5 and 6 competitions, and I think there were about 5-6 skaters per group for those levels. They try to keep the groups small. What struck me the most was that there were tons of synchro teams last year.

ISI does divide everyone up into age groups by level, and sometimes also by gender, depending upon how many boys are competing at a certain level.

It's my home rink. I hope you'll all come out! Should be a lot of fun!
