i started a goal over on my ko-fi to help fund the inline skates that i want so that i can keep practicing over the summer while my rink is closed! the goal will cover the skates and any additional gear i need, such as knee pads and whatnot. so from now until the goal is met, any tips will go toward helping me live my ice skating fantasy ⛸️❄️ and any help is appreciated!

i have some down time so rewatching the VM reality show - haven't seen this in a while, and lol what's jumping out now -
episode 1:
VO: to succeed, they'll need to build on their unique, indefinable connection with each other
Scott: the questions that we always get - are we dating, are we together, it's hard to explain
🤦🏻♀️ how is it hard? if it's no (since you clearly had a gf then) then just say no. that's one syllable lol the only other answers are, it's not clearly no, or you're shipbaiting 😂 (and of course there's the quote they never put in context: "i don't think she realizes she keeps me alive")
the first competition they show is in Laval, before they go to High Performance Camp, and it isn't listed in skating scores or on wiki - but luckily there was a record of it -- it's Championnats d'Ete, which was held August 8-13, 2013. they scored 76.51 in their short dance and withdrew before the FD
every time i see this show, it's not the show itself i think about most, it's all the footage that didn't get used - everything that was filmed that we never saw. and the skating is a huge part of that. this performance is nowhere that i can find except the snippets in the episode. so the crew sat there with their fancy cameras, filmed the whole thing, and it's sitting somewhere on a hard drive 😭
they say they were still choreographing (in August) - connections, transitions, that the lifts weren't comfortable. that's late for most teams to still be making programs, especially in an Olympic year? but they probably toured that year after Worlds, and idk what state her legs were in, if they needed a decent sized break after the season for recovery. he's huffing and puffing and saying he's disappointed in himself how exhausted he was after the SD
the scoring system was kinda different, how each program component is weighted differently. but 10s for a program they're saying is unfinished and feeling foreign to them-- they were 22 pts ahead of 2nd place in the SD. they show a medal ceremony, but it must be small medals? bc they didn't skate the 2nd day
