How to use this

Start with a country, a beginner programme or an element. Open a level to read its collected requirements. Expand programme stages to see the exercises inside.

Try double Axel or three turn in the search box. Results show available definitions and matching evidence; not every question can be answered from the collection.

Compare programmes with similar purposes, then inspect their stages and requirements. Similar content does not mean the tests have the same difficulty or that one qualification transfers to another country.

Follow source links to check the original context. Where saved documents are available, you can read them here. Documents keep their dates; translations may be working translations rather than official wording.

This is a growing collection, not every requirement from every country. Missing results can mean missing or untranslated evidence, not that a skill is absent from a country’s programme. Read the coverage notes before drawing conclusions.

Intersections may be performed using two lines only and must include face to face preparation. This element may contain: - Forward and backward skating (two-foot skating not permitted) - Variety of steps NOTE: Rotation at the point of intersection is not permitted. This element may start from skating or a stand still. Performance Example: Starting from skating or a stand still, skaters will form two equal lines facing each other. Using a prescribed set of steps previously taught, the skaters will move the lines towards each other in hold. At the point of intersection, the skaters will drop hold and the two lines will pass through each other. The skaters will then go back into hold and perform the steps previously taught to exit the element. Mandatory Requirements: - Meet the definition of the element - Stable throughout (no fall) - More than 50% unison - More than 50% in correct shape Rotating Element Wheel Definition: A wheel is a maneuver where spokes rotate around a pivot point. Examples include: - 2, 3 or 4 spoke wheel - Parallel wheel This element may not exceed two wheels. Each spoke must contain a minimum of three skaters. This element may contain: - Forward and backward skating - Variety of steps and turns This element may start from skating or a stand still. Performance Example: Starting from skating or a stand still, skaters will join in a wheel formation. Using a prescribed set of steps previously taught, the skaters will rotate the wheel while maintaining hold. The wheel should stay in formation as much as possible, while paying attention to equal spacing between skaters and between spokes of the wheel. Mandatory Requirements: - Meet the definition of the element - Minimum of 720 degrees of rotation of element (two complete rotations) - Stable throughout (no fall) - More than 50% unison - More than 50% in correct shape
