2 cool videos of Laura Kottlowski on very clear Alpine lake ice ("What makes this ice so clear is that there are bigger crystals in its construction and there is almost no air bubbles in the water"): https://www.instagram.com/reel/CKWwugfFWjM/ & https://www.instagram.com/p/CKaUB-3FLdT/

One of my favourite childhood skating memories is watching Brian Orser skate on Lake Louise !!

Brian Orser - The Story of my Life - YouTube

As a kid, I thought, "Where is this? It's incredible."
As an adult, I think, "How did they pull this off?" How did they get the overhead camera shots, keep the ice surface flat, deal with unobstructed snowy winds on such a large surface, etc.

Glad it's still on Youtube. It's too bad I can't find the whole special. Also sad CBC doesn't make these types of specials anymore.

Coaches at my local rink:

I skated on that same lake yesterday and it was beautiful.
