Overview

Forewords by Janet Lynn, Tim Shriver, Dick Button and Doug Wilson Trixi Schuba can still recall her father's words, spoken to her in her family's home in Vienna, Austria, while just a child: You're a Schuba and you don't need to put up with anything. Ernst Schuba passed away suddenly when Trixi was just eleven years old, leaving her to be raised by a caring but very strict mother, Berta. Her father's words would guide her to finally achieve her dream of winning a gold medal in figure skating at the 1972 Olympic Winter Games in Sapporo, Japan. At the peak of her career, one that also included being crowned (both twice) European and World Champion in her sport, Trixi was so dominant in compulsory figures that the rules of competition were forever changed. In Life on Ice, you will get to know the real Trixi Schuba, both on the ice and behind the scenes and headlines, and discover how figure skating became her passion and her lifeline.
