Farewell to Bowman the Showman.

Figure skating champ Christopher Bowman dies at age 40.

Christopher Bowman skating "Bad Boy". I've based Rodney McKay's skating style (in Out of Bounds) on Bowman and I'm sorry to see Christopher go.

Christopher Bowman skating "Maria". I'm posting his "California Dreamin'" program on YouTube, but it's not up yet. Okay now it is: Christopher Bowman skating "California Dreamin'".

Christopher Bowman shocking everyone with his unrestrained "Wooly Bully".

Farewell, Bowman the Showman.

What a shame! I used to love seeing him in shows and competitions.

Wow, he was a fantastic show-off, wasn't he? Great style and I love the one glove, pony-tailed look ;-)

He was on 'Little House On The Praire?' I loved that show and I don't care how uncool I am.

He was delightful. He skated with such ease and humor and joie de vivre.

Oh no! I loved him back in the day. So sad.
