| There are different types of Figure skating such as
pairs, dance and singles; you need to have different qualities to do each
of these events. These 4 things make a gold medal performance: good skating
(no toe pushes): Balance (doing the right amount of elements): presentation
(good performance face and arm movement) and the right elements (not to
do hard jumps if you can't land them). |
Figure skaters usually favor a spinning direction people
call them righties or lefties, most skaters spin counter clockwise there
are very few skaters that can jump and spin both ways. Professional figure
skaters train every day for 6 or 7 hours they also take other classes to
help them to be a better figure skater such as ballet and ballroom dancing,
they spend more time training than the average person works at their job. |
