Canadian figure skaters Kirsten Moore-Towers and Michael Marinaro optimistic after strong off-season Globe_Sports

. They returned to Southern Ontario from Montreal to continue working with Marcotte at Skate Oakville and were victorious at the recent Nebelhorn Trophy, a tune-up for the Grand Prix season in Germany.

Progress was evident last month as they achieved their first-ever triple-twist-four – the highest difficulty level possible – during their short program in Germany.“It was a long and very difficult process,” Moore-Towers said. “It was tough to change technique that we had done the same for 10 years for me and over 10 years for Mike … so we are pleased to finally reap some benefits.

Moore-Towers and Marinaro will represent Canada in pairs at Skate Canada, Oct. 25-27 in Kelowna, B.C.
