There can be many ways on how you can describe the beauty of figure skating.

Maybe it’s the speed or the graceful movements that give you the feeling that you are in another world. For most of us, figure skating is not just a sport – it’s living a dream.

No wonder many people are mesmerized by figure skating. From the music choices, the skating routines to the costumes – every detail matters.

That’s why when you see a figure skater change their costume mid-performance, you can’t help but be in awe at this amazing exhibition.

Perfecting the skating routine is already tough. Can you imagine how hard it would be to flawlessly time a costume change?

A skater doesn’t just stop skating to change costume. The skater carefully does this while performing. That’s why the second costume should be well-hidden but can easily be revealed when the time comes.

BB Trend Storm uploaded a compilation of the craziest mid-performance costume changes in figure skating, and everyone on the list was phenomenal.

The video starts with Anna Shcherbakova’s performance from Skate America in Grand Prix.

Mid-performance, the gorgeous figure skater made a slight costume change as she showed part of her bejeweled skirt.

The performance of Anna Pogorilaya in the Art on Ice is one of the most stunning mid-costume changes.

While her performance is already breathtaking, her audience didn’t expect her to change her costume mid-way through her performance. From having black short hair and wearing a tuxedo-inspired costume, Anna was able to swiftly change while she was doing her beautiful spin.

Her transition was flawless! Even if you have sharp eyes, you’d have a hard time noticing how she was able to remove her wig and strip off the first costume.

Now, that’s what we call a golden performance.
