Top Italian coaches put young Kiwi skaters through their pacesWARWICK SMITH/STUFF Champion Italian skating coach Lorenzo Residori keeps and eye on skaters at the Summer Skate Camp in Palmerston North. Roller skaters have taken up the chance to learn from some of the world's best, but skate organisers are hoping more men will take up the sport. Sixty skaters from across New Zealand were at Arena 3 in Palmerston North for a four-day training camp, running from Friday until Monday. The main attractions were Cristina Moretti​ and Lorenza Residori​ - two Italian skate instructors who have trained multiple champion skaters between them. "The best skaters make it look effortless."
