Follow me on:

If you haven't seen Joshua Farris in action, take the time to tune into IceNetwork and watch him! The 14 year old can do triple Lutz jumps and amazing Bielmans. I believe Josh is the ONE to watch as the 2014 Olympics approaches. He could be as good as 1988 Olympic Figure Skating Champion Brian Boitano!

(By the way...I wish I was related to Joshua Farris, but no...we are not related. Of course our families love figure skating!)
