welcome specators!

The sport of figure skating shifts into high gear this weekend at 2023 Humana Skate America, the first of six events in the prestigious ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating Series. Many of the top skaters in the United States and internationally are in the Lone Star State to compete for coveted medals, Series points and prize money at the Allen Events Center here in Allen, Texas. The top six skaters/teams at the conclusion of the Series (based on points) qualify for the ISU Grand Prix Figure Skating Final in Beijing, in early December. The four disciplines taking center ice — women, men, pairs and ice dance — are sure to delight with exquisite skating and breath-taking moves on full display. U.S. champions Isabeau Levito and Ilia

Malinin, and U.S. and World champion ice dancers Madison Chock and Evan Bates, are the event’s domestic headliners. Levito, 16, and Malinin, 18, have set their Olympic hopes in motion, as the veteran team of Chock and Bates continue their remarkable careers together at the highest level. The international field is also loaded, with the likes of reigning two-time World medalist Loena Hendrickx of Belgium, Kevin Aymoz, fourth at the 2023 World Championships, World pairs champions Riku Miura and Ryuichi Kihara of Japan, and Four Continents bronze medalist ice dancers Marjorie Lajoie and Zachary Lagha of Canada. The Prevagen Skating Spectacular wraps up the event on Sunday night, with a collection of fun and entertaining show programs. Enjoy!
