About Us
We are a company that strives to advance the sport of figure skating through the use of technology and education. We are honored to be the sole producer of the U.S. Olympic Team Official Licensed Figure Skating Instructional Video Series. We only sell what we consider to be the best. As of now we produce and carry instructional videos and blades. In the future we are looking to expand into other areas. It takes time and research for us to rank equipment/instruction.
  
History
Dr. Charles Butler, an Olympic athlete from the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympic Games, is now practicing medicine in Chicago after graduating from the New York University School of Medicine. He originally founded the company Physics On Ice in April 2002, after he graduated from Business School at the University of Michigan. He started with one instructional video, now known as "Volume 1. Physics On Ice." He recieved the endorsement of the PSA for this highly acclaimed production. The video went on to be a huge success and is now sold in over 25 countries. Demand for more videos teaching quality on ice became apparent. Charles then spent the next couple of years planning and researching for his next volumes. In 2005, Charles founded Ultimate Skate LLC and this new company acquired Physics On Ice. After years of work, his new videos would finally hit the market under Ultimate Skate LLC in November 2005.

Ultimate Skate LLC gained prestige as soon as it was licensed by the US Olympic Committee for its instructional video series in late 2005. Ultimate Skate then expanded its product line to include what is arguably the most advanced figure skating blade technology in the world.
