I didn't know Rika was in Switzerland. It's good that little by little skaters can train again. I really like the skaters of Stéphane's team : Deniss, Koshiro... and now Shoma ^^.

Paskud Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Viveca Lindfors ends her career Quote I have decided to end my career skill skater. After a long period of rehabilitation and many attempts to return to full-time training, it must be said that I will no longer get my back to withstand the training required at the top international level. The decision was also influenced by getting a study place at the University of Turku. All things considered, ending my career and focusing on my studies is the most sensible option for me at this stage. I would like to thank the whole coaching team, especially Virpi Horttana, Ice Skills of Espoo, Youth Olympic coach Nuriya Pirogova, Russian coach Evgeni Rukavicin, the Finnish Figure Skating Association, the Finnish Olympic Committee and all my supporters.

Veveco Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 If I understand correctly, British skaters are still not allowed to train because skating is considered as "leisure" rather than a "professional" sport. Rinks are closed. Several skaters have expressed their frustration publicly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockstaryuzu Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Well Harry's right. Football is far more risky in terms of what you can catch than skating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
