Skating Info

Skating

Skating is a sport that involves moving across the ice in skates. It is known as ice skating or figure skating, and participants may perform by themselves, in pairs, or as a team. Over the years, skating has taken on an almost artistic form, with performers combining the sports with dance moves on the ice and producing spectacular results. An ice skating performance is mainly judged based on moves, flips, slides, circles, and various other maneuvers that the skater is able to perform on the ice.

Ice Skating - A Premium Winter Sport

Ice skating was the first winter sport to be incorporated into the Olympics way back in 1908 during the London Olympics. Later, in 2014, the four disciplines of skating- namely ice dance, pair skating, and men's and women's singles- were combined as a team event.

Skaters can perform in various regional, national, and international tournaments throughout their career but the Olympic medal for skating remains the highest honor one could aspire for. The International Skating Union or ISU oversees all major skating tournaments and implements the rules and regulations.

Jumps and Maneuvers that Leave You Amazed

Figure skating involves various jumps like toe loop, loop, flip, axel, lutz, and salchow. Points are awarded for the perfect jumps while deducted when a skater violates a jump.

For example, points will be lost in case of an edge violation if the skater takes an incorrect edge. The skater needs to be mindful about using the inside, and outside edges of the skates and the combination of jumps they make, as the ISU has strict rules about the number of various kinds of jumps they can make.

Watching an ice skating performance is like watching art in motion. It requires tremendous strength and stamina on the part of the skater to be able to perform one flawless move after another. Catching the action live is beyond thrilling, so be sure to book your tickets from our website and witness the action firsthand for a life-changing experience.
