After looking around for a while, I finally rediscovered one of my favourite routines for pairs skating!
This video is from the 2014 European Championships, featuring Russian skaters Elena Ilinykh and Nikita Katsalapov. Skating to tracks from Swan Lake, this truly is a captivating routine.
As well as loving the choice of music (I can't resist skating to Swan Lake), the routine is spectacular. The first lift was the move that captured my attention, and although there was a slip and fall during the twizzles, I am immensely jealous of their rotations. The spins and lifts were all so perfect too!
I've been working hard on my routine, and practicing my flip and arabesque camel spin a lot, and although I'm getting ever more confident with the flip, the camel spin still needs a lot of work. The good news is that I've extended my routine! I'll update my routine on the "My Moves and Routine" page :)
Stay skating!
