a speed skater, hockey player, figure skater, ice dancer, etc. the term "ice skater" is not actually all that specific, evn tho ppl often translate it as figure skater. if u were looking 4 a definition on figure skater then i suggest u search for figure skater bcuz that will prolly b much more helpful......a figure skater is an ice skater but an ice skater is not necessarily a figure skater.
meghan, fred, harry, kathryne, tommy, anna, and jeff are all ice skaters, even though meghan and fred are ice dancers, harry is a figure skater, tommy is a speed skater, and kathryne and anna play hockey.

a figure skater is an athlete who partakes in the sport of figure skating, an extremely difficult and dangerous sport that is commonly reffered 2 as ice skating instead of figure skating. many ppl consider it 2 b a girly or easy sport.....and to them i say "well, letz see that quint axel!"
a figure skater has 2 do on ice and off ice training, has to take the risk of injuring just about any part of her/his body, and has 2 realize that itz completely worth it :D
