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.

These can be found in the Singles Technical Panel Handbook or the ISU Communication for Single & Pair Skating for the Levels of Difficulty and Guidelines for marking Grade of Execution for each season. Appendix B - Spins: Difficult Variations Resource summarizes some of the spin features included in these documents. When assessing spins that are required to attempt a feature, it is only necessary that the feature is attempted rather than achieved. For example: STAR 7 - A skater performs a sit spin that moves into a sit behind difficult variation that is too high to meet the definition of the basic sit position. Though the variation does not meet the definition of a basic sit, it does count as an attempted feature. If the spin meets all the other mandatory requirements, including min revs before changing to the variation, then the evaluator can assess the quality of the spin as a whole based on the assessment criteria. Note: During an assessment, skaters must indicate to the Evaluator the features they will be attempting for each indicated element.
