This is not exactly a snapshot. It's a scene from a movie, Lady Let's Dance (1944). I am posting this in honor of Joesitz, Golden Skate's first moderator and a mainstay of the forum for many years. This is Belita, Joe's favorite professional skater.
Here she has just finished her routine to Beethoven's Fifth Symphony in front of the Statue of Liberty. This famous show number featured seven Axels.

Today's swimming lesson is by Yuna Kim, who shows us how to dive correctly from solidified water.

Geez, now I feel like I have to find pictures of skaters doing some snowboard, basketball, or synchronized swimming moves.

Stephane says you shouldn't be too hasty in your decision.

Come back Stephane! Come back! For me figure skating would not have been the same without Stef Brian and Dai! even though a number of people may criticize them for their shortcomings, such as almost non-existent 3A, lack of transitions or inconsistent quad.

WOAA! Poor Caro! It must have been really hard to skate like that. I remember her mentioning in an interview how embarassed she was. She did so well considering the circumstances!

It always makes me laugh when people write "THIS IS FAKE" in the comments section. I'm like, "Yeah, thanks for pointing out the obvious..."

Does anyone have an animated gif of a 3f+3Lo or 3Lz+3Lo combination, by the way? I've found numerous gifs of 3F+3T and 3Lz+3T combinations (mainly Yuna's and Gracie's), some 3F+3Lo combos (mainly Mao's), but no 3Lz+3Lo combos.

This is not on the ice, but I thought these were nice pictures.

Those pictures are nice
It's off-topic, but can anyone translate this part from Adelina's interview? I think she's saying things about how Russia got two spots for Sochi...

I just realized that I've amassed a small collection of relatively high-resolution photographs of skaters over the past month (Thank goodness for Google). Just wanted to share some of my favorites.
What are some of the favorites in your collection or memory? (They don't have to be on-ice photos either. Instagram's cool too. Heee.)
Spread the love!
