Edward Rios Figure Skating 8/14/09

I took this for my friend, Eddie. He does a pretty good job for only having 3 years experience.
He just passes Intermediate, and soon he'll be testing for Novice.

I know! My jaw dropped the first time I ever saw him skate- he was doing Axels after only four months on the ice and didn't even have a coach.

Before that, I think he did a year or two of karate when he was in grade school.

Everything you do is awesome. Next time I'll have to tape your triple Sal!

wow - beautiful skating! Great extension on the back flying camel and spiral and everything else looks great. Have you really only been skating for 3 years? You definitely have some great natural talent!

Three years only!? That is INCREDIBLEEEEEEEEEE how old is he? And did he have other sport experience before this? Maybe roller skating, gymnastics, etc?

What do you mean only 3 years of experience???

[RBCI]

WOW! He's amazing! He's graceful AND powerful.. which is a rare find in male skaters... especially ones that haven't skated for very long! He should audition for disney.. they'd love him for sure!

The only thing that bothered me were his laces! LOL... I'd be afraid of getting my blade stuck in one of the loops in a jump if I left mine like that :P
