Ryan Giordano successfully passed his senior moves in the field test for U.S. Figure Skating, becoming the Martha’s Vineyard Figure Skating Club’s most recent gold medalist.
Figure skating tests are a national standard set by the U.S. Figure Skating Association. There are eight levels to complete in the field test to become a gold medalist — Giordano, 17, completed all eight levels in five years. He joins fellow Islanders Amanda Bernard and Sally Caron in accomplishing the gold medal feat.
Giordano is a junior at Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School, and wants to skate in college. He is looking at schools in Florida and California.
