Team rituals: Before we leave the locker room at competitions, we stand in line and kiss each other on the cheek. We call it the “kiss line.”Also, we stand in a circle and send a hand squeeze around.

What makes Line Creek FSC special? We are special because we all know each other and none of us fight. We all get along.

Team goals: We want to do our best and become a stronger team.

What is the best part of being on a synchronized team? The best part is being around our friends and sharing the satisfaction of skating well together. We also like the bus trips to other states.

What are some of your favorite memories? We loved going to the Mall of America after our practice ice at the Maplewood Synchronized Skating Classic Competition. Other favorite memories include skating as a team in our club's ice show and our bus trips to competitions.
