The official U.S. Figure Skating tests are a series of tests to measure the accomplishments of a figure skater in all branches of the sport. They are as follows: Compulsory Figures, Ice Dancing, Free Skating, Moves in the Field and Pair Skating. This system of tests is an incentive for the skater to learn and progress from the elementary levels of the Pre-Preliminary tests to the highest level, Gold. It is also a way in which skaters who compete move up to higher levels at competitions. For a skater to continue to challenge him/herself, and skate against others of equal ability, corresponding tests must be taken. These tests are very different from the Skate with Us Basic Skills tests. In recent years the number of skaters coming out of LRFSC has grown such that we sponsor our own test session once a year. Judges who have been certified by U.S. Figure Skating are flown in from other parts of the country to conduct these tests. Each test that is taken is judged as a pass or a retry. A re-tried test may be retaken after 29 days have passed. Each test level proceeds in difficulty. © 2010 Lake Region Skating Club - All Rights Reserved
