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.

NZIFSA Stroking Skills Test Manual 72 SILVER (TEST 5) STROKING SKILLS TEST DESCRIPTION 4. Forward loops The move may be skated across the width or down the length of the rink and begins from a standing start. The skater will begin with a LFO swing roll to prepare for the first RFO loop. The skater then pushes into a LFO loop when returning to the axis. This is repeated twice. After the last LFO loop the skater should perform a RFI chassé to prepare for a LFI loop. This loop is followed by a push into a RFI loop. These loops are also repeated twice to complete the move. This move may start on either foot. Focus: Edge quality and continuous flow COMMON ERRORS, AREAS OF DIFFICULTY & TEST EXPECTATIONS 4. Forward loops FOCUS: Edge quality and continuous flow CE -Creates a rounded rather than elongated loop -Lack of control after loop -Lack of upper body control -Two footing on loops -Inability to maintain a consistent flow throughout the entire move AD -Control after the loop -Returning to a common axis -No retrogression after loop TE -Correct loop action -No touching down with free foot -Good posture and body alignment -Beginning edge should be initiated as close to perpendicular to the axis as possible
