First Filipino Olympic figure skater coaches younger generation of 'ice men'

First Filipino Olympic figure skater Michael Martinez pays it forward as he is now coaching a younger generation of ice skaters — although a part of him still itches to return to the ice rink. Martinez is the first skater from Southeast Asia and from a tropical country to qualify for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Russia. But the 'Ice Prince' said that as much as his heart wanted to compete, he needed to weigh his responsibilities.
