Figure Skating For Dummies by Kristi Yamaguchi (1997-12-31) Paperback – 1836

Good for new skaters at our rink that want to learn the basics for jumps and spins. BTW, we are artistic roller skating on quads and it's the same mechanism for freestyle as on ice!

I have no idea about this book, bought it as a present for a niece.

This book was not only extremely informative but it was written with a fun, light tone that made reading enjoyable. Everything was very user friendly and never, at any given time, was I slightly confused or bored. Great book for skaters (because secrets are revealed) and non-skaters (who always wondered about the names of things, how certain moves are done, etc.).

This book tell you detail of figure skate and good guide for parents and biginnger skater.I always like her book.

It's decent book. A bit of color would have helped a lot.

I am an adult figure skater who began skating 2 years ago. It's nice to have a book that explains things I need to know about the sport.

Great book on figure skating and easy read

The book goes from the very basic stokes to the very difficult jumps. It was a disappointment to me as it did not illustrate or describe the "how to's" This is not an instructional book but rather a book for spectators or parents rather than the student skater.
