Did you think figures were gone in Figure Skating? There was an Open Figures Competition that was well attended and enjoyed by judges, skaters and spectators in Colorado this August at the Colorado Championships which included 3 national champions! Watch on this Video Figures Gold Medalist Debbie Minter in Action!

  • Lovely crisp edges. Well done. I really miss figures.

  • (groan) this brings back way too many memories of 5:30 am patch sessions in a cold rink...

  • LOL.. I still have mine somewhere!

  • I so need to find a scribe. I miss figures, my first medal back in 1990 was in Figures. We need to bring it back.

  • WOW!!!!

  • yay debbie she is our figures class coach at the rink its really fun!

  • My coach is going to teach me figures to test. I'm so excited!!!

  • where the heck was this competition? the "figure" is great!!! In fact, I'm considering attempting it myself to show my students and see if they can do it! And i loved the judges standing on the side .... oh what memories! thanks for sharing this video - it made my day! and yes, the pineapple was priceless!

  • This figure won over one performed by a two-time national figures champion. In figures, looking at the ice is not a flaw. The skater must align the figure with the long and short axes of the rink, must have the circles exactly the same size, must position the turns "just so" and pointed toward the center of the circles, and must trace the figure exactly three times. You've GOT to look at the ice.

  • try not to look at the ice so much
