Short Program

2:20
Duration:
2 minutes 20 seconds

The Short Program shall consist of the following elements:

Jumps
1T 1S 1Lo 1F 1Lz 1A 2T 2S 2Lo 2F 2Lz 2A 3T 3S 3Lo 3F 3Lz 3A
  • a) Single or double Axel jump
  • b) Double or triple jump, may not repeat jump a)
  • c) One jump combination consisting of two double jumps or one double and one triple jump, the second jump must be double or triple Toe loop (for season 2024/25), both jumps may not repeat jump a) or b)
  • An Euler jump CAN BE included in the Jump combination in the Short Program.
Spins
Steps

One step sequence fully utilizing the ice surface.

For feature 4) Two combinations of 3 difficult turns on different feet: the combinations must include forward outside rocker and backward inside loop (for season 2024/25), they can be in the same combination or one in the first and the other in the second. Only one difficult turn may be repeated once in the two combinations. At least 2 difficult turns and steps must be executed on clean edges for Level basic.

Components

The following Program Components are judged:

  • Composition
  • Presentation
  • Skating Skills

The factor for the Program Components is 1.07.

Further details on elements judging, levels and bonuses, see Communication β„– 2624.

Free Skating

3:00
Duration:
3 minutes

A well balanced Free Skating program must contain:

Jumps
1T 1S 1Lo 1F 1Lz 1A 2T 2S 2Lo 2F 2Lz 2A 3T 3S 3Lo 3F 3Lz 3A

Maximum of 6 jump elements:

  • one of which must be an Axel type jump
  • There may be up to two (2) jump combinations or one (1) jump combination and one (1) jump sequence.
  • One jump combination or jump sequence can consist of up to three (3) jumps, the other up to two (2) jumps. A jump sequence consists of two or three jumps of any number of revolutions, in which the second and/or the third jump is an Axel type jump with a direct step from the landing curve of the first/second jump into the take-off curve of the Axel jump.
  • One full revolution on the ice between the jumps (free foot can touch the ice, but without weight transfer) keeps the element in the frame of the definition of a jump sequence. Jumps executed in a jump sequence receive their full value. Only two triple jumps can be repeated either in a jump combination or jump sequence.
  • (removed Euler limitations from previous seasons)
  • No quadruple jumps are allowed. Any single, double (including Double Axel) or triple jump cannot be executed more than twice in total. The same type of jump independent of revolutions can be included not more than three times in the Free Skating program.
Spins

There must be a maximum of two (2) spins of a different nature (abbreviation)

  • one of which must be a spin combination with change of foot (minimum eight (8) revolutions), flying entrance is not allowed
  • and one must be a flying camel (minimum six (6) revolutions), a change of foot is allowed but a change of position is not allowed (for season 2024/25)
Steps

There must be one (1) Choreographic Sequence consisting of at least two different skating movements.

Components

The following Program Components are judged:

  • Composition
  • Presentation
  • Skating Skills

The factor for the Program Components is 2.40.
