There was so much happening at Russian Test Skates it was hugely entertaining, and uplifting to watch, and we just want to say well done, and thank you to everyone involved. We loved it! It was filled with talented young figure skaters who showcased their huge potential. From Ultra C elements to excellent performance skills, it was great to be able to watch it live on Channel 1 as it gave us some early insights and a sneak preview into what we can expect from the season ahead. And it looks like it’s going to be extremely competitive and entertaining!

Not all the programs were perfection, but that’s what test skates are for, to try things out. And the competitive season hasn’t even begun yet, so we’re going to see massive improvements and changes, particularly after the skaters receive their feedback from the Test Skates judges.
Keep an eye on our Instagram, Tiktok and Youtube as we cover some of the highlights.
