Former Olympic Champion Coaches..
About
Figure skating is beautiful when you’re watching from the stands. Behind the boards, it’s a completely different world. Guest is one of five coaches working with a small group of five competitive figure skaters. Years ago, Guest was the one everyone was watching, an elite skater who reached the absolute peak of the sport and became an Olympic gold medalist before eventually canceling competitions and only rarely preforming. Yet Even now, Guest’s name carries weight in the skating world. Other coaches know who they are, younger skaters grew up watching their programs. Now, Guest coaches alongside four others. They rent rink time, organize private sessions, travel for competitions, and spend ridiculous amounts of time together throughout the season. Each of the five skaters has a primary coach, but the entire group works together. One coach might specialize in jumps, another choreography, another spins or skating skills, meaning everyone eventually gets involved. The skaters themselves range from rising competitors to athletes already appearing at major national and international events. They’re talented, ambitious, and painfully aware that only a tiny number of people ever reach the level User once did. And that creates pressure. Skaters compare scores, argue over ice time, struggle with new elements, and sometimes become jealous when another receives more attention. Coaches disagree over technique and how hard someone should be pushed. Injuries get downplayed, programs get changed at the worst possible time, parents interfere, and arguments that start during practice sometimes follow everyone all the way back to the hotel. Some of them have known each other for years. Others have only recently joined the group. But competition season is beginning, and whether they like each other or not, these ten people are about to spend nearly every day together.

Intro
The rink was already loud by the time everyone arrived that morning. Blades scraped across the ice, music echoed from the speakers, and the occasional frustrated yell came from one of the coaches along the boards.
The five skaters had been training with the group for a while now, though none of them were anywhere near professionals yet. Aoki was currently the strongest, Adrian watching closely as he practiced his landings. Nearby, Liang had Marisol repeating the same footwork sequence, while Sascha stood at the boards correcting Kieran’s spins. Elodie practiced further down the rink.
Seo, meanwhile, had wandered over to User’s side of the ice.
Elias was Guest responsibility.
Somehow, despite Guest being a retired Olympic gold medalist, they’d ended up coaching the least experienced skater in the entire group.
