7. Technical Requirements – Artistic Free Skating
General Requirements for Artistic Free Skating
The artistic events consist of free skating and pair free skating programs judged only on the basis of
the Program Components:
 Skating skills
 Transitions
 Performance
 Composition
 Interpretation/Timing
See ISU Special Regulations and Technical Rules 2016, Singles & Pair Skating, Rule 504,
paragraph 3 for a detailed description of Program Components. The respective Rules can be found
on the ISU website.
There will be no technical panel and no technical mark given. The points for each Program
Component are multiplied by a factor of 1.0
The artistic program consists of a variety of skating moves selected for their value in demonstrating
skating ability and enhancing the skater’s interpretation of the music. Skaters will be judged on their
ability to interpret the music and develop a theme through their skating. Credit for technical
elements is based solely on the ability of such movements to enhance the chosen theme and
support the music. Credit will not be given for their technical difficulty.
The program must be developed through skating skill and quality rather than through non-skating
actions such as sliding on one knee or excessive use of toe steps, which should be used only to
reflect the character of the program and to underline the rhythm and nuances of the chosen music.
The skater/pair must not remain in one place for more than five (5) seconds.
Any element exceeding the maximum number as set forth below will be judged as an illegal element
(1.0 deduction). If there is no jump or no spin element included or only a jump and no spin or vice
versa a deduction for a “missing element” of 1.0 will be made. The Referee is responsible for such
deductions.
Clothing and make-up must be modest, dignified and appropriate for athletic competition – not
garish or theatrical in design. Clothing may, however, reflect the character of the music chosen.
Clothing must not give the effect of excessive nudity. The theme of the program should be
recognizable from the skating movements and choreography – regardless of what the skater is
wearing.

Props and accessories may not be used in any part of the artistic programs. Any item that is held in
the hand or removed during the performance is considered a prop. Thus, for example, a hat worn
throughout the program is not considered to be a prop, but if it is intentionally removed during the
performance it is considered a prop. Objects on the ice, thrown in the audience, placed on the
boards or on the judges table are not permitted. Costumes that contain particles that may mar or
leave anything on the ice surface (feathers, boas, excessive beading) are considered unsafe and
are not permitted.
The deduction for inappropriate clothing or make-up props and accessories (1.0) will be determined
by a majority of the judges and the referee.
Illegal elements:
 Somersault type jumps
 Lying on the ice and prolonged and/or stationary kneeling on both knees on the ice
The warm-up duration is five (5) minutes for all artistic free skating events.
