Part III: Lausanne

Part III: Lausanne

By Reut Golinsky

The Malley rink at 16:00, just a few hours before the first show in Lausanne: practices, interviews, last preparations.

The Kourbanovs check the platform for their number.

Anaïs Morand and Antoine Dorsaz couldn't afford to miss even one day: World championships was around the corner. So they had a serious practice, off and on the ice.

Yevgeny Plushenko, Olivier Schoenfelder and Sarah Meier interviewed by Swiss TV:


The last-minute preparations were made, the last skaters left the ice after rehearsal, the audience started to fill the rink.

My last minutes backstage, my last words of the interview, my last "goodbye"...

My last "Art on Ice" show was about to begin... that was exciting and a little bit sad.
