At this year's synchro nationals, Nancy Kerrigan was a straight-up idiot. She said something along the lines of (I don't remember which team this was for, but it doens't matter)"if all these girls were a bunch of Tara Lapinskis, it would really show that they're real athletes." If a bunch of Tara Lapinkis did synchro, the team wouldn't do so well. For example, Southern Silhouettes. Don't get me wrong, I love to watch them and they're really entertaining, but they didn't get that high of a score.
@xHydraulicHeart Southern Silhouettes weren't trained properly in synchro. Teams like Miami, Jazz and Hayden didn't just jump into synchro being amazing. They are trained and higher divisions are made of skaters who know how to skate synchro.
um borennnn, thats not true. nancy karrigan was asked to join the haydenettes, and she knows alot about snchro. and its true cuz my old coach used to be their assistant coach.
Thanks for posting this, verbalgirl! I was wondering, though...are the skaters allowed to do jumps and spins in synchro? (I read somewhere that some team did camel spins in perfect synchro!) Also, is a fall a one point deduction, or is it less? Imagine the deductions if they all fell! :)
The only thing I find intensely irritating is the continuous chatter from the commentators. The time for comments is during the replays IMHO.
Haha I agree. I think they should have somebody like Lynn Benson to comment at events like this. I bet Nancy has a sheet in front of her that's like a list of sayings to make her sound like she knows what she's talking about.
This is the college I want to go to and be on this synchronized skating team.I am a figure skater and I am a synchro person too. I am also getting a solo soon too!
My coach Rachel Fox was on this team!!!! GO REDHAWKS!!! She is an AMAZING coach.

they have really nice edges and turns but there twizzles are pretty bad. Also their second travel circle was really weird with the kicks.
