Hello all.
I am trying to organize the gobs of photos I have in my "unsorted skating photos" folder, and I can't remember who this skater is to put her in a folder! I can't see her face well enough, and I am wondering if anyone can help me out :) Thanks!

I've heard of Divas on Ice, but this is the first Diver on Ice I can remember seeing!:lol:

What is she doing?
And how did she get out of it?

As far as I can tell it looks like a backflip.

...or she's doing the break dance move thing that Weiss often used in his exhibition numbers.

Could this be a photo of Stacey Pensgen? It kind of looks like her and apart from Surya Bonaly and Rory Flack Burghart, Stacey's the only female skater I've ever seen perform a backflip...

It's either a backflipper or she took a *really* major tumble off her partner's shoulders!!

Looks like she got stuck in an invisible harness.

If she is diving her leg position is not very good. Gotta keep those legs together.;)

I agree though she looks like she is doing a backflip.

:D That made me look at the picture in a completely different light. Horrible!!

Not to mention that there's an insurance ad on the sideboards in the background. :)

Probably not, Stacey is a blonde. ;)

Where did you take this photo? Cause i know of a little oriental girl that does backflips like that. I might be able to tell you.

Lisabelle -

Tabitha Yim!! That would make perfect sense!! Why didn't I think of that? I was just watching the Gymnastics World championships today wondering about how Tabitha would have done if she had been there (on floor) and I came back to this topic to look again and saw your reply. I think I remember saving a photo of Tabitha's skating a long time ago but didn't think about it until now.

I didn't take it, but I wish I knew who did. I don't usually like to post stuff without giving credit to the photographer but it was driving me up a wall to not be able to identify her. If anyone knows, feel free to let us know! :)
