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.

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.

Performance Example: Starting from skating, a glide, or a stand still, the skater will initiate a one-foot turn sequence that covers a minimum of ½ of the length of the ice. The skater must perform a minimum of four different turns and may execute forward and/or backward change of edges. The pattern of the step sequence should be a straight or diagonal line, demonstrating strong lobes throughout. Example: RBI double 3s (clockwise), RBI counter (counterclockwise), RFI twizzle (counterclockwise), RBO-RBI change of edge, RBI loop (clockwise), RBI-RBO change of edge, RBO bracket. Skaters must prepare their sequence on each foot. A draw for foot will take place on the day of assessment. Mandatory Requirements: Meets the definition of the element, which includes: - a minimum of four different turns - ice coverage (at least ½ of the ice surface) 360 Degree Field Move Challenge Definition: Field move of skater’s choice that is held as per the description below for 360 degrees that covers approximately a third of ice. Performance Example: The skater may start in either clockwise or counterclockwise direction. Skating to gain speed, the skater will execute a field move of their choice, on the foot and edge of choice. The skater must hold the field move for 360 degrees that covers approximately a third of the ice. Mandatory Requirements: Meets the definition of the element, which includes: - the specific definition of the field move - ice coverage: 360 degrees, that covers approximately a third of the ice Step Sequence Definition: As defined at the end of the Skills Assessment Resource Guide, perform a step sequence with a minimum of four different types of turns in any pattern that covers a minimum of ¾ of the ice. Performance Example: Starting from skating, a glide or a stand still, the skater will initiate a step sequence including a minimum of four different types of turn and may be both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. Skaters may change feet throughout and use a variety of steps, change of edges, etc. The sequence must cover at least ¾ of the ice, but full ice coverage is encouraged.
