For many of us, simply standing upright on skates is a challenge – and an even greater achievement if we can glide across the ice.
That’s why I was so amazed when I saw Vanessa James and Morgan Ciprès perform at the 2017 European Figure Skating Championships.
The French duo had come close to victory in previous years, but always seemed to miss the final hurdle.
And this time wouldn’t be easy. As they stepped onto the ice rink, the commentator declared that the previous competitors would be tough to beat.
But after years of previous attempts, Vanessa and Morgan were ready for the challenge.
Wanted to prove everyone wrong
The pair gave it their all to prove everyone wrong and take home the coveted prize. They had transformed their routine, added new moves – and practiced until they dropped.
Now, the moment of truth had finally arrived. They tried not to focus on their nerves… and began their routine.
Their performance left the audience and judges in awe – and they won the silver medal. A well-deserved accolade!
I was blown away by their routine, especially at the moment at 1:53! Watch the clip below and get ready to be amazed:
Aren’t they incredible? I just had to share the video with you!
If you want something, you should never give up. Like and share if you agree too!
