If you were going to slow into a jump you would just have to jump higher in the take off. You see when you jump, the speed you gather helps your take off and makes the jump easier. With out speed, you would have to use much more power to get your self in to the air at the right height. The other options are to either fall or( if you're only practicing) stop and start over with more speed. Most of the time if you don't have enough speed you would just keep pushing until you got the right amount of speed. Depending what jump you're doing and how consistant you are at it you need different speeds.

What does math and science have to do with figure skating?

Math and science have many things to do with figure skating. You could use math to figure out how much time it would take to get from point A to point B. Science is also very important because it adds speed and momentum to figure skating. It also adds gravity. If there were no gravity, figure skating would be impossible because you would not be able to stay on the ground.


Is Ice skating more popular then Figure skating?

Figure skating is a type of ice skating. It's like asking "Is a Ferrari more popular than a car?" A Ferrari is a type of car. Ice skating includes figure skating, speed skating, ice dancing, ice hockey, any type of activity where you move across the ice on skates. So, ice skating would have more participants because it includes more activities than just figure skating.
