/UCWE/ - Great anticipation awaits the 2006 U.S. Figure Skating Championships, which culminates this weekend. IceSkatingWorld.com will be there in St. Louis covering the event live and providing up-to-date timely news stories as the skaters reach the final rounds.
"Even without the presence of Michelle Kwan, this figures to be another outstanding and competitive event. Reigning U.S. and World silver medalist Sasha Cohen headlines a talented cast of skaters," explained owner Marta Nilsen. "Here at Iceskatingworld, we will continue to provide timely news coverage during the next month as we head closer to the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino."
Founded in early 2000, IceSkatingWorld.com is one of the leading websites in the figure skating industry. A popular part of the site is the "Skating Snippets" section that provides brief capsules of what's happening in the world of figure skating.
ABOUT ICESKATINGWORLD.COM
IceSkatingWorld.com was founded because of the lack of representation for the skating industry on the Internet. High quality websites devoted to ice skating are rare, and few are utilizing the latest in technical innovation. IceSkatingWorld.com is unique in that it offers skaters, fans, parents and coaches a one-stop shop for all their skating needs and resources.
From free instructional articles to an online market where skating merchandise can be bought or sold, IceSkatingWorld.com covers it all. Here, you will find the Skater’s Lounge, offering chat rooms, various competition schedules, and bulletin boards covering your favorite topics. The Skater’s Library offers a comprehensive listing of the best in skating books, music and videos, daily skating news and much more. The unique Ask The Pro's feature allows you to tap into the knowledge of master rated coaches. That’s just a few of the features you have access to at IceSkatingWorld.com, Your Home for Figure Skating.
Last year the site unveiled it's new online pro shop, complete with skates, accessories and dresses. The online pro shop can be viewed at:
