The World Figure Championships are on this week in Toronto at the North Toronto Arena.
It's great to see this part of skating revived and made interesting. There is an amazing group of judges for the competition there: Janet Lynn, Beatrix Schuba, Sandra Bezic, Tim Wood, Gary Visconti, Donald Jackson, Barbara Wagner, Slavka Kahout Button, Tommy Litz. They have a bunch of other events going on like seminars and lessons. Gary Beacom is going to skate his I'm your Man program and teach the choreography to the skaters.
Figures taught skating skills so well. The World Figure Sport organization has made itself a separate sport now and added more interesting and fun figures. It will be interesting to see how this evolves.
