Forrest Ryan McKinnon (USA)

A fast and furious skater

It was always Ryan’s destiny to become a skater. His parents were well-known American ice comedians and owned a skating rink, which he started on aged just 19 months. Ryan loves nothing better than jumping through revolving flaming hoops. He also acts, drums and works as a stuntman. You’ll be thrilled with his antics on the ice.

A soulful yet charismatic skater

Rohene fell in love with ice skating when he was 8 years old, and went on to become the Puerto Rican National Champion in 2004.

Having studied various types of dance, and with wide performing experience, this optimistic free-spirit promises to delight the Holiday on Ice audience with his exciting double and triple jumps and energetic style on the ice.

An elegant and effortless skater

Though he fell on his head the first time he started on ice at age 4, Mauro Bruni persisted in skating, and as a perfectionist who strives for precision, he was placed 7th in the US National Championships in 2003. He see’s figure skating as an art form, and he diligently practices his triple jumps, triple loops and triple flips every day. Audiences everywhere are thrilled with his precise skating, which he seems to manage without any effort.

Tom Paulson

British skater in Speed

Tom Paulson previously represented Great Britain as a figure skater. Since then Tom has performed in 3 shows with Holiday on Ice with this being his second time performing in Speed. He loves entertaining audiences on the ice and working hard to perfect his tricks. On tour, when he is not on the ice, Tom keeps himself busy by stretching and working out but his main hobby is teaching himself to juggle.

Tom says “Even though it's difficult, Speed is the best show I have performed in, it's exciting and fun to be on the ice and that makes it even better for the audience. Our skaters are the best in the world, there are some unbelievable performances being put together, hold on tight because it's going to be a spectacular show!”
