  • Skating World Mourns Loss of 'Visionary' Billings
    Skating world mourns loss of 'visionary' Billings Hamilton, Buttle among those who treasured time working with designer Posted 9/29/16 by Sarah S. Brannen, special to icenetwork Jef Billings, seen here posing with one of his Emmy Award-winning designs, left an indelible mark on the world of figure skating. -Getty Images Designer Jef Billings, who created costumes for skating stars for decades, died Tuesday at the age of 70. Billings was widely regarded as one of the most important designers in figure skating, creating opulent pieces drawn from his experience creating fashion in Hollywood. "His knack was to dive into the character that you were portraying on the ice and really bring out the flavor of that in the costume," said Kristi Yamaguchi, a frequent client of Billings. "Whether it was something comedic and fun, or elegant and glamorous, you put a Jef Billings on and it made you feel special on the ice." Scott Hamilton met Billings in 1984, when Billings showed him some sketches backstage at a tour stop. Hamilton liked his energy and enthusiasm, and the two started working together, forming a partnership that lasted decades. "There was no one like him," Hamilton said. "There are a lot of really talented people out there, but when you look at his technical ability of understanding fabric -- how to cut, how to sew, how to build and create something to make a perfect picture -- he just got it. He wanted women to look gorgeous; he wanted men to look like men. He wanted the skaters to represent whatever the character of the piece was, and he was just brilliant." Billings, who died at his home in Los Angeles on Sept.

  • Sporting Legends: Katerina Witt
    SPORTING LEGENDS: KATERINA WITT SPORT: FIGURE SKATING COMPETITIVE ERA: 1979 - 1994 Katarina Witt is a German figure skater. Witt won two Olympic Gold Medals for East Germany, first in the 1984 Sarajevo Olympics and the second in 1988 at the Calgary Olympics. She won the world championships in 1984, 1985, 1987, and 1988. She also won six European championships. Her competitive record makes her one of the most successful figure skaters of all time. Witt was born on December 3, 1965 in Staaken (today part of Berlin, Germany/GDR). She went to school in Karl-Marx-Stadt, today reverted to its pre-Communist name Chemnitz. There she attended a special school for sports-talented children, named Kinder- und Jugendsportschule. She represented the club SC Karl-Marx-Stadt for the GDR (East Germany). Her coach was Jutta Müller since 1970. In 1984 Katarina Witt was voted as “The GDR female athlete of the year” by the readers of the East-German newspaper Junge Welt. In 1987 she recaptured the World Championship title, which she lost in the previous year to Debi Thomas. Many people consider her performance at this event to be the finest of her career. In 1988 Witt started a professional career, which was very unusual for East German athletes. At first she spent three years on tour in the United States with Brian Boitano, also a Gold Medal winner at the Winter Olympics in figure skating. Their show "Witt and Boitano Skating" was so successful that for the first time in ten years New York's Madison Square Garden was sold out for an ice show.

    The Skating Lesson Podcast Transcript The Skating Lesson Interview with Rudy Galindo Jenny Kirk: Hello, and welcome to The Skating Lesson podcast where we interview influential people from the world of figure skating so they can share with us the lessons they learned along the way. I’m Jennifer Kirk, a former US ladies competitor and a three-time world team member. Dave Lease: I’m David Lease. I was never on the world team, I’m a far cry from the pewter medal, but I am a figure skating blogger and a current adult skater. Jenny: This week, we had a few technical issues that we’re so sorry about… Dave: We had BOOT PROBLEMS!! Jenny: Boot problems, Tai Babilonia would have told us! We had some technical issues, so we can only give you guys the audio portion of our interview with our guest this week, Rudy Galindo. But thank you for hanging with us, and we’re gonna try to come back next week with a stronger interview where you can actually see our guest in addition to hearing him. Or her.

  • Welcome to the “Barbara Ann Scott: Come Skate with Me” Exhibit Podcast Presented by the City of Ottawa Archives
    Welcome to the “Barbara Ann Scott: Come Skate with me” exhibit podcast presented by the city of Ottawa archives. In the podcast, City Archivist Paul Henry interviews Barbara Ann Scott at her home in Florida, and Educational Programming Officer Olga Zeale interviews Paul Henry and Elizabeth Manley in Ottawa. PH: My name is Paul Henry, I am City Archivist for the City of Ottawa. OZ: Why was it important for the City of Ottawa Archives to acquire Barbara Ann Scott’s collection? PH: Uh, well the mandate of the City of Ottawa Archives is to document the corporation of the City of Ottawa as well as serve as a repository for records that would otherwise be lost to history; records that in particular tell the story of the individual contributions of notable citizens, organizations, businesses, community organizations, that have contributed to the fabric of Ottawa and which tell, essentially, the story of the gap between what the City does and what our known history of an area is. So, the private records really flush out and make interesting a story of Ottawa beyond its role as a nation‟s capital. The Barbara Ann Scott collection fulfills that in many ways. Barbara is our most decorated citizen, our most decorated Olympic athlete, and if you think back to those days in „47 and „48 when we had, and gave Barbara the key to the city and had events and parades in her honour. The number of people that came out in those days to celebrate her accomplishments was certainly something, and in many ways, the city, in some way belongs to Barbara.

Brannen and Drew Meekins, special to icenetwork Starr Andrews dons the earring that Olympic champ Kristi Yamaguchi once wore. ­Sarah S. Brannen An earring's journey When we talked to Starr Andrews after the juvenile ladies event, we noticed a pretty earring in her left ear, a small gold hoop with a crystal heart dangling from it. We didn't realize we had seen it before: Kristi Yamaguchi wore it as she won her Olympic gold medal in Albertville. It turns out that Tai Babilonia gave the earring to Yamaguchi back in 1992, and she wore it for the entire Olympic competition and for years afterward. "I really wanted to give her something special, something really cool," Babilonia told us. "And I saw her wearing it on the cover of Sports Illustrated." http://web.icenetwork.com/news/2014/01/23/67027190 1/5 6/29/2018 The Inside Edge: Sisterhood of the traveling earring | icenetwork.com: Your home for figure skating and speed skating. "I got it from Tai during a trying time when I competed," Yamaguchi said. "I wore it for good luck, and it symbolized strength and hope for me." Yamaguchi eventually gave the earring to Katia Gordeeva after the death of Gordeeva's husband, Sergei Grinkov, and eventually Gordeeva gave it back to Babilonia.
