An opportunity to see Le Patin Libre perform in London:

and Edinburgh:

I dare say there are other groups doing something similar in the US but I'm pretty sure you'll see nothing else like it in the UK. They are technically excellent, and artistically unusual for figure skating. Not a traditional ice show, but worth a look if you like contemporary dance or appreciate good blade work.

Oh! I would LOVE to see that, but I think it might be a bit too far from Darkest Cornwall...

Returned to the ice in Sept 2017 after a major leg injury in 1999. Skating in Jackson Elite Pro & MK Vision Syncro. Still scary after all these years.

Thanks for posting.
I saw them perform at the temporary Streatham ice rink, & at the Simon Waller tribute in Basingstoke; interesting, inventive, artistic skating - worth a watch.

The greatest trick figure skaters ever pulled, was convincing the world it was easy.

Just watching them stroking in unison during rehearsals at Brixton was mesmerising.
