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.

Coverage, updates and corrections

This is a growing reference, not a complete collection of every test. Material may be partial, historical or a working translation. No match does not mean a country does not teach an element.

Reference presentation updated . This is not a claim that every source was checked on that date. Individual documents retain their own dates and limitations.

Choreographic Sliding Movement: Performed anywhere in the program, during which the skater performs a controlled sliding movement on the ice for a minimum of 2 seconds. The following requirements apply: • Continuous controlled sliding movement on any part of the body. • May rotate and no maximum time restriction. • Controlled sliding on 2 knees or any part of the body will not be considered as a Fall/Illegal Element by the Technical Panel during this element. • Sliding Movement which finishes as a stop on 2 knees or sitting/lying on the ice is identified as a Choreographic Sliding Movement and a deduction for Fall/Illegal Element is applied. • A loss of control while executing a Choreographic Sliding Movement will not be considered as a Fall as long as no additional support is required. • Performing a simple lunge movement will not be considered a Sliding Movement. • Additional Sliding Movements will be ignored. Appropriate penalties should be taken if the additional movement meets the requirements for a fall or violates other choreographic restrictions which would then be penalized by the judging panel, i.e. on two knees, or the weight of the body is on any another body part, it would be considered a Fall while lightly touching the ice with a hand would be a choreographic restriction violation. ADDITIONAL PRINCIPLES OF CALLING – ALL CHOREOGRAPHIC ELEMENTS • Any Choreographic Element/Movement combined with another Required Element as an ‘Entry’ or ‘Exit’ feature will not be considered by the Technical Panel as a required Choreographic Element/Movement. It will only be considered by the Technical Panel as an ‘entry’ and/or ‘exit’ feature. • Only the first performed required number of different Choreographic Elements shall be identified as the required Choreographic Elements. Subsequent Choreographic elements will not be identified and considered as choreography by the Judges panel. 21
