    The beautiful second blossoming of Nicole Bobek this past year truly is the feel good story in the skating world for me! I am so relieved that Nicole rediscovered sanctuary on the ice entertaining a crowd where she clearly belongs.

    Definitely a feel good story, and I enjoyed reading every word. The message I take: it has been Nicole waking up to her blessings, and her extremely hard work actually applying her gifts rather than taking them for granted that has brought her back this far, along with the important lifelines that others extended to her, rather than turning their backs.

    Her circus school training sounds interesting. I wish Nicole continued success in her life's journey.

    Great article and I really hope that Nicole is able to continue progressing on this road. There is a joy in her recent performances that is lovely to see.

    And to Lynn Plage and JoJo Starbuck for being generous with their time and support!

    I can't tell you how sad it made me when I heard of her struggles and that she would be going to jail. She's always been my fave U.S. lady but to now read this brings a to my face. You go girl! All the best to you always.

    I really like Nicole and glad to see that she is back on the right path, but the whole drama about how she has no money and can only afford one costume is troublesome when there are photos of her on icenetwork wearing this season's $100+ lululemon warm up jacket.

    That was really touching. I watched her on Improv Ice, and you could just feel the joy in her skating. She was radiant.

    Wishing her continued success and happiness!

    Do you have a link? Not that I don't believe you.
    I just want to see what a "lululemon" jacket looks like. Hehe.

    Don't know which one Bobek has, but here are lululemon jackets:

    The whole line is very popular with skaters.

    Maybe she received it as a present from someone - it is possible, you know.
