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.

Synchro Assessment Resource Guide August 2024 Copyright © 2024 Skate Canada 7 Team Element Assessments Descriptions, Diagrams and Mandatory Requirements Note: All performance examples included in this section are examples only. Coaches are expected to instruct their group/team with specifications that are appropriate for their training environment, ability and for the number of skaters involved. STAR 2 Element/Exercise CONTENT STAR 2 Linear Element Block Definition: A block is a formation created with a minimum of three parallel lines of 2 or more skaters per line. In a block formation, skaters will move as a unit. Examples of blocks include: - Square block (3x3) - Rectangle block (3x2, 3x4) This element may contain: - Forward skating (two-foot skating not permitted) - Variety of steps This element may start from skating or a stand still. Performance Example: Starting from a stand still arrange the skaters in a closed block formation (ex: 3x2, 3x3, 3x4). Using a set of prescribed steps previously taught, the skaters will move in the block formation across the ice until the sequence of steps has been completed. The block should stay in formation as much as possible paying attention to equal spacing between skaters and between rows. Note: If the number of skaters in the group/team does not allow all lines to be equal, it is acceptable for a line to have fewer or more skaters. Mandatory Requirements: - Meet the definition of the element - Minimum of half the ice coverage - 50% unison - 50% or more in correct shape
