They are amazing skaters.

My DD does competitive figure skating (at a lower level), and so I follow the sport.  The sport is judged on a variety of factors, which can include facial expressions, etc.

Madison and Evan make it look easy.  But it has taken thousands of hours of practice for them to skate like that.  I love to watch them, and I admire their combination of athleticism and artistry.

If you don't like that they're a couple, don't worry.  Most of figure skating does not involve mixed couples.  (Males are kind of rare in the sport, relatively speaking.  And so most skaters (girls) do solo events (freestyle or ice dance), or events with mostly girls (ice dance (shadow), or synchronized skating (16 girls on the ice at one time.)

Figure skating is a nice sport.  It takes a lot of discipline and time to look half-way decent on the ice.  And so it's a good activity.  It keeps kids and teens active and off of their phones.  (Granted, it is not cheap.  If it were cheaper, I predict it would be more popular.)[/quote]
