Samuel Contesti (born 4 March 1983 in Le Havre, France) is a French-Italian figure skater who competed for Italy. He originally competed for France, then switched to Italy after the 2006-2007 season. He is the 2009 European silver medalist and a five-time (2008–2012) Italian national champion.

Career

Contesti initially competed for France, placing 9th at the 2005 European Championships and 26th at Worlds the same year. The next season, he placed 5th at Trophée Eric Bompard and 2nd at French Nationals but did not compete at Europeans or Worlds.

In fall 2006, he was assigned to compete at Skate America, however, the French skating federation decided to withdraw his name.[1] In 2007, he won bronze at French Nationals.

Contesti moved to Italy after his marriage to an Italian.[2] He began competing for Italy in March 2008.[1] In spring of 2008, he moved to Courmayeur, Italy.[1] By capturing silver at the 2009 European Championships, Contesti became the first male single skater to win a medal for Italy at the event in 55 years, since Carlo Fassi's gold in 1954.[2] At the 2009 World Championships, Contesti placed 5th, his best finish to date in that event.

Contesti confirmed his retirement from competition on 15 June 2012, stating that he intended to focus on coaching in the future.[3][4]

Personal life

His father Yves was a professional football player in Ligue 1.[1] He has two older sisters. In February 2007, Contesti married Geraldine Zulini who also coaches him.[1] Their son, Ennio, was born in June 2009.[1] They are expecting their second child in October 2012.[3]
