Semanick and Gregory used suspenders in exhibition... not sure if they also used it in competition at some point. This one was the only one I could find from the 87 Worlds exhibition - so fun:Anna’s epic Firebird dress reveal….

I know in exhibitions they are very common and would love to see cool examples of those but I’m especially interested in who actually integrated them into their competitive programs.
Eg I recall an ice dance team had a strap on their costume that they used in lifts and stuff in an actual competitive program? l can’t remember who but it was actually quite effective though I kept wondering if it was violating the rules?
