Prague’s ever-successful skate comp the Mystic Cup has been and gone and it was yet another wild run for all those involved. Always a favourite among the Brazilian contingent, did this year ring like a second coming for the natural Born Skaters from the southern hemisphere. Those in attendance thought so. Another sweet surprise was the ladies comp which saw some serious heat coming from the likes of Evelien Bouillart (rumoured to be getting a model on Etnies in the near fture!) and young Lacey Baker from the States.
