Please Read: The Disney movie Ice Princess
Hello everyone,
Most of you ice skaters on this site have seen the movie Ice Princess. What I am upset about is that everyone thinks now that you can learn a triple axel in 2 months. The actors on the movie just learned to skate and had add-ins do those jumps. Most of the non-skaters thought that they actually were doing the jumps. The leaping Dwarf on the movie can actually skate (I have met her she lives near me and is doing a show in New Ulm Minnesota last Friday) but they didn't have her doing the jumps either because they are dangerous. Anyone in the skating world should know that no-one not even michelle kwan could learn a triple axle when they first starded skating in the time that the actors said that they learned. Hope you learned something, Shauna

Yeah i agree, The movie is good but is unrealistic. The tests are not llike that and the jumps take alot more effort and time.

haha I just got done watching this movie and agree. The jumps take a LOT of work and mastery compared to how they are portrayed. Also it made me laugh at how the "recital" was how they tested! lol!

Yes i agree its very unrealisitc and makes people think what we do isnt as hard as it seems which of course it is.
But I have recently seen a worse programme on the TV here in the UK... Its a comedy about ice skating and the way you have some pushy parents and coaches and it makes skating out to be a bitchy sport, ok so it can be but this programme makes it out to seem like every1 in skating is a bad person.

yeah i know wat u mean. If someone without ice skating knowledge watches the film they will assume the skaters are doing the jumps and will assume ice skating must be easy.
anyway have u seen any other ice skating films? i've seen cutting edge, mystery alaska (and another 1 that i cant remember what it is called).

Reply to Stebb
There's also one called On edge, There was this movie that i saw a long time ago it was called the Ice princess but it wasn't the recent one. and they were actually skating and it wasn't fake.
Isnt cutting edge the one about the paris skaters?
