Vanessa James and Morgan Cipres, both French figure skaters, competed in the 2017 World Pairs competition.
Skating to Disturbed’s interpretation of Simon & Garfunkel’s iconic tune “The Sound of Silence,” the duo glides across the ice easily and executes a sequence of lifts and leaps that are absolutely fascinating—the move they make at the 1:50 mark has the audience on the edge of their seats.
Their performance isn’t flawless, but it’s their talent that absolutely captivates the audience. The audience is on their feet towards the end of their act, giving the couple a standing ovation!
