Dr Finland is amazing! Plus, at 35, he's one of the oldest male singles skaters in the Grand Prix. Looking forward to seeing him (live) in Espoo in November...

 

[Myr]

I was so happy to see him on the GP list and I hope he can make himself proud

I saw him last year at Challenge Cup and he looked so unhappy with the results so I'm very glad that he is continuing!

 

[Ruthypegs]

Great to see that Valter now has a fan page!
