Say,what are your fav. Disciplines,and what skaters got you first interested in them? The very first ones. Your insperations into those Disciplines. I'm not sure I can remember all mine. But for me,it was from what I can remember......

Pairs= G&G
Dance=Not sure.
Synchronized Skating=Team Esprit.

Anyone else?

Well, dance for sure :) , Torvill and Dean were a big inspiration - in fact I started skating again after they won the '84 Olympics!

I've also always liked Men's singles as we had a two-time World Champion at our rink growing up (and one of his contemporaries who was also a National/World competitor) who I knew - he also was an excellent ice-dancer and took me through the Willow Waltz Dance test! So I always felt that my skating "role-models" (as it were) were the men somehow...:halo:
