Welcome to Skate for Gold!

Happy Halloween Everyone! This year at the rink I wore a blow up cow. It was really fun to fool around for a bit and get some funny videos in this costume. I hope everyone had a great halloween and ate tons on candy :) check out the cow costume here!

Recently I took part in the Foam Glow run. It was super fun! There were a few foam stations throughout the run with lots of bubbles. There was also black ligths throughout the run which was super cool. At the end of the race they handed out medals to everyone and there was a concert. The concert was really fun but kind of short. During the concert they sprayed glow stuff onto the crowd which was some type of liquid that made your clothes and skin glow. They also threw a ton of glow sticks into ...

I recently competed at the Colorado Springs Invitational. I competed in the 2 memorial dances. The dances were the cha cha and the rocker foxtrot. They were in memory of Frank Frey and Ashleyann Carlson. I didn't know either one personally but I heard that they were great people. It was a super fun event not only because it was for a great cause but because there was no pressure. It was all about having fun and skating to ...

This year I decided to go crazy on an artistic program. One day I saw this guy perform on Americas Got Talent. His performance was really cool and I thought, what if I tried that on ice. It was a crazy thought but why not give it a try. So we constructed the costume, which was a long long process. Then once we got the costume constructed we packed it all up and flew it all to Wisconsin so that I could compete in my old rinks local ...

My family and I went to visit beautiful ice castles. We visited them in Dillon, CO but there are a few other locations around the US. It is a big "castle" made of ice and inside there are crawl tunnels, slides, fountains and beautiful sculptures of icicles. It was really amazing and definitly worth going. When you walk around there is so much to see, they have some smaller slides and tunnels you have to crawl through, but they also have a huge slide and ...

QOTD:"Your only limit is you." ~ unknown

I got to skate on the lake at Keystone. It was so beautiful with the mountains in the background. Also it was snowing when I went which made it even more beautiful. The lake was really big and had a christmas tree in the middle. On the rink it also had a closed off section for if you wanted to play a hockey game or something. It was so beautiful and I had a ton of fun. If you are ever up there for skiing or even if you go up there just to skate on the ...

This year I was in 2 different christmas shows. The first one I participated in was in Wisconsin. I did it with one of my good friends Naihua (@naihuaskates on instagram).
