Dead Kennedys and Black Flag and make it Ice Slamdancing. But watch out for the blades during the compulsory stage diving part. To make it more interesting, the judges and randomly-chosen audience members would be the designated catchers for that particular bit. This would give the audience a chance to actively participate in an Olympic event while at the same time making the scoring more interesting as slicing open the forehead of a judge with your skate blade would be an automatic 2 point deduction. The chance for this event to cause a horrendous disfiguring injury to someone would probably greatly increase viewership. I mean, hell, just look how popular hockey is. :evilgrin:
