I am interested in pairs skating, but I have no clue about requirements for starting. I am 16 yrs old female, 155 lbs, 5'4". Fit, but not exactly lightweight. I am Star 4 free skate and Star 8 skills and dance under skatecanada's program, with all single jumps, working on axel and double sal (I haven't landed or fully rotated either). My skating "career" only has a few years left. Is it worth my time looking into getting a partner, and will my height/weight/age/skill level inhibit the possibility of pairs skating further than the actual number of partners interested?
By the way, I'm kind of looking into this on a whim, and male skaters are not in abundance near me. I'm just curious about others thoughts on this scenario... Thanks in advance! (and sorry in advance as well. I'm pretty forgetful, so if I don't respond to things, I probably forgot I posted this...)
