Chantal Fry, from Toronto, Ontario, asked for $100,000 for 33% of Glisse on Ice, a business combining skating events, coaching, and a clothing line of padded apparel designed to protect young figure skaters practising jumps. The company began as a skate-themed events business for weddings and festivals, which was shut down during COVID, prompting a pivot toward apparel; there was no inventory, no manufacturer relationship finalized for mass production, and no clothing sales beyond prototypes.
Arlene Dickinson, Manjit Minhas, Lane Merrifield, Vincenzo Guzzo, and Michele Romanow all went out, citing the lack of numbers, the combination of three different businesses under one pitch, and the absence of a clear investable structure. No deal was made.
