Skaters hold their ground in formation, then the music changes and everyone loses it

Don’t believe me? You need only look as far as the Team Canada figure skaters to see what I mean.

To be more specific, it’s their performance at the 2015 World Synchro Championships that I’m talking about, and the way they were able to make a serious statement through dance moves alone.

Beginning with the entire team linking arms and gliding across the ice, the skaters boast the poise and confidence of people who are completely at home with their skill set. They know what they have to do, and they know so long as they keep their focus the audience is going to be left spell-bound.

So it is that when the music starts for real – and the routine begins in earnest – they produce a perfectly synchronized performance without putting a skate wrong. Their show encompasses a sort of line-dancing feel, with the crowd almost drowning out the music being played over the speakers in their excitement.

To see exactly what I’m talking about, watch the awesome video below:

It takes years of hard work, practise, and natural skill to be able to deliver a performance like this. Shout out to all the skaters who have dedicated their lives to ensuring they’re this good at something, it truly shows!
