[@gennieseaview3656]

As much as I would like to see this in TV coverage during competitions, I don't think it would work. It would be to much of a distraction for the competitors and the judges. Plus can you imagine if a camera operator was to fall during a competition routine, it could be just where the skater(s) were going to be next and they only have one shot in competitions; also routines can be altered mid competitions. I personally love just seeing just a pair or the solo skater on the ice and owning it during competition, no distractions. Also it would take too much time for the camera operators to learn the routines and having enough skating camera operators. When done on Dancing On Ice, the rink is quite small and it is entertainment (not that the competitors don't take it serious), huge diffference to serious competitions though. Absolute full credit though to the camera operator/skater, two great skills to have, talented in their own right.

I would love to see a raw video of you just filming the skater and all you can hear is their 'silver blades' gliding and cutting into the ice as they perform their routine, no music (the skater could wear ear phones, so they can hear their music); then maybe people could have a guess as to the song/music they were skating to, then do one with the song/music after (just a thought).
