Figure skating is, when done at the highest level, graceful, elegant, and artistic. At the same time, what we don't see, when performed by the best figure skaters, is the effort and athleticism underlying that grace and elegance.
But figure skaters are very fit. And when you combine grace and beauty and fitness, you get a really nice package. Lovely Katarina Witt actually demonstrate the fullness of this package when she posed nude for Playboy a few years ago (and the pictures are easy to find).
Subject of this post is Tessa Virtue, half of the gold medal winning ice dancing pair (with Scott Moir) four years ago, and silver medalists this time in Sochi. According to some sources, Tessa is the most Google Olympian in Canada. This apparently includes Sidney Crosby, and indicates that there are many more guys Googling a hot female figure skater than one of the best hockey players in the world and a national sports hero. Of course, it could be argued that Tessa is a national sports hero too, but I don't think that's why most of the guys are searching for her.
Now, she's beautiful, graceful, and elegant on the ice when ice dancing with Moir. And she makes it look easy. But a bit of searching revealed the body underlying the beauty, and particularly the flat and sculptured abs that I find particularly appealing. When you find a women with a center line on her torso, that's a woman I appreciate. Absolutely (sorry, had to).
So here is Tessa, fit and fine.
