He is in the American Skating Hall Of Fame. He was inducted only a few years ago. Skating is truly his life and passion. It's what makes him get out of bed everyday. And like he said to my family last saturday, "Boy I sure do love it". Congrats k9henrydog on your 48th year, that it quite something!
Skippy is my Great-Uncle and I am very proud to say that I am related to this wonderful man. He has touched so many lives. Today, Novemeber 29th 2008 is his 79th Anniversary of when he put on his first pair of skates. And my family and I met him at the Rink to watch him do a couple of laps to celebrate. He did his last back flip at the age of 70. He is the most humble, down to earth person you will ever meet. And I love him with all my heart.
And I asd my love to that comment as well, even though I have never met him! Such a life! From competing against Dick Button, to a show business career, to influencing so many incredible California skaters! I am not sure if he is in the American Skating Hall of Fame, but he should be and we should encourage his inclusion. I am only on my 48th year on ice, but now I have an obvious record to shoot for! I'm in for 79, how about you!! best wishes to you all!!
omg i used to take lssons with him last year before i started competing...he doesnt do his backflip anymore though he was so fun to be around,an awesome coach and he's a really funny guy!! i still see him from time to time at the rink
nice to hear such a wonderful story!! You have a great one for a coach!! He was a National bronze medalist to Dick Button at one point!!! 1946 or so!!! And such a long history with the ice shows. Send him some YOUTUBE love if you get the chance. Best wishes!!!
I love Skippy, he was my coach several years ago when I skated regularly. He gave me an old pair of his skates, which kept me in the game. I still use these skates today, and think of him when I put them on. Skippy is a hero in the skating community!
What a wonderful story! Many are not aware of the great influence skaters from the great ice shows have been on our sport!!! And even such a small contribution as you mention here, shows an effort that came from a very great heart! best wishes
Snoopy has Ryan Bradley's smile!!!!!!! Best wishes Ryan

Skippy was my pro back in the 70's
what a wonderful, talented & humble man. I am grateful to have known him. I remember the special occasions of the back flips we all stood in awe
