Online Pro Shop Debuts for upcoming Olympic Season
(PRWEB) November 4, 2005 -- In anticipation of the upcoming 2006 Winter Olympics, IceSkatingWorld.com unveiled their new online pro shop complete with skates, accessories, exercise equipment, and instructional videos.
Founded in early 2000, IceSkatingWorld.com is one of the leading websites in the figure skating industry. An authorized dealer for Jackson, Riedell, S P Teri and Harlick, IceSkatingWorld LLC will be consistently expanding the online pro shop. They plan to add a complete line of skates and blades over the course of the next few weeks.
"We've developed a site during the past five years that provides a tremendous amount of resources to everyone in the skating industry," explained owner Rich Nilsen. "Although we've sold some products online during that time, now we have transferred our brick and mortar pro shop to a significantly greater online presence. We will continue to add many products during the next month as we head closer to the 2006 Winter Olympics."
Products currently online in the new pro shop include Skating Safe Gel Pads, Riedell skates and blades, Jerry's Spinners, MK blades, and instructional videos from Olympian and Swedish National Champion Ann-Margreth Frei. IceSkatingWorld.com is also an authorized GK and SIX O apparel distributor.
IceSkatingWorld.com is only of the sites in the U.S. to offer the 2006 Figure Skating Club edition calendar. This calendar, presented in English and partially in French, marks the dates of important competition events around the world for the upcoming year.
For skating fans anticipating the upcoming season, the site recommends the Spectator's Video Guide to Figure Skating. With the U.S. National and Winter Olympics approaching, this is the perfect instructional aid. If you can't tell a lutz from a flip, this video guide is the answer. The Spectators Guide will show you how to easily identify jumps, spins, lifts, ice dancing and what the judges are really looking for in World and Olympic competitions.
