Ice Movement and Sound

I was looking at this video again to see how animation can work on ice. With my animating stage on this module coming up, I am trying to find some ideas about how to make my character skate and what style I should keep to. Obviously I dont want to make it too complicated due to the time constrictions but I would like him to have a bit more to him instead of having him follow a motion path around. This animation I feel is very nice because of how she performs her tricks. The movements are moved right through to the tips of her fingers when moving her arms and we dont have at all any stiffness.

The use of sound in this helped me quite a lot for ideas as I am looking to have sound effects over my track I will have playing in the background. I wasn't too sure how it would mix together so I will be doing an animatic from my storyboards to see how well they go together.
