Figure skating terminology includes a variety of terms that describe elements of the sport, such as "axel," "salchow," and "loop," which refer to specific jumps. Spins are categorized into types like "sit spin" and "camel spin," while "program components" assess artistry, choreography, and interpretation. Additionally, the terms "mandatory elements" and "transitions" refer to required skills and the connections between movements. Overall, this specialized language helps to convey the technical aspects and artistic expression in figure skating performances.
they were invented when the people back in the days first started to relize that the ice would be a good thing for sports like hockey,ice skating(etc). Figure skaters usually ice skate and while they ice skate they do a type of performance to win prizes they join compotitions and compete against other people around the world. Figure skating uniforms were created by first making normal clothing wear but people added a little more style into it and after a couple of years of learning style they created many different types of these figure skating uniforms.
Though there are many different types of skating, such as ice skating and roller skating, the process consists of rolling or sliding on a hard surface or ice using wheeled or bladed shoes.
i am doing a big project on this topic so I have been doing a lot of researching. definetly equipment has changed coaching techniques the age of figure skaters who are winning a lot has gone down one of the causes was the 1961 plane crash. figures were elimnated from competiton in 1990. women have become more dominating. in the beginning, women were not allowed to join figure skating clubs. it is a great question and there is a lot of information out there about it.
Speed skating is based on skating for speed, not style. Figure skating is the opposite, as it skates for style and not always speed. Speed skating requires: -Lower cut boot, almost like a shoe -Longer blades than artistic skaters -the objective is to go fast, not to impress the judges Figure skating: -based on competing in a number of levels and elements -consists of jumps, spins and footwork -artistry and difficulty are considered when judging -higher cut boot -regular length blade, but with a toe pick and edges
