4.0 out of 5 stars Great Guide Book for Figure Skating paretns, February 2, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Competitive Figure Skating: A Parent's Guide (Hardcover)
I bought this book because I have no knowlege of Figure Skating. Up till now, I just like to watch the ice skating competitions and exhibitions. I can not tell what's difference among all these jumps and moves. Now my daughter became competitive skater, this book is just what I looked for.

It gave skater parents a full view of what to look forward in ice skating sports. The detail pictures let me know what each jump should be. I also like his suggestions about how to become a good skater.

In addition to tech info about skating, I like his dry humor. Overall, this is an excellent book which provids enough history and resources for parents like me. The only reason I gave it 4 star instead of 5 was this book is not being updated since figure skating was phased out in 2002 in most internationl competition. The new score system came out after Salt Late Winter Olympic scandals. This book did not update this either.
