This is a YouTube video of the Pic-Skate creator (Nick Perna) demonstrating the similarities between Pic-Skates and figure skates. Obviously, he and Debbie Prachar (co-demonstrator) are both high-level skaters who could strap knives under their slippers and knock out a few flying camels.
However, the videography is excellent, especially for the on-ice portions. The loved watching them do three-turns, brackets and other one-foot turns - you could see the front of the blade lift off the ice for the back outside three turn.
