Figure skating is a Winter Olympic event that combines the strength and skill of sports with the artistry of dance moves. Athletes use skates to draw patterns on the ice and perform difficult movements such as jumping and spinning. Figure skating judges will give a comprehensive score based on the quality and artistic expression of the movements, with a maximum score of 6 points. After the athlete completes the designated action, he or she can make a free skate within the legal time. Figure skating became one of the official events in the first Winter Olympics in 1924. Figure skating events can be divided into four events, namely: single skating, pairs skating, ice dancing and group skating. The Winter Olympics only has three events: single skating, pairs skating and ice dancing. Single skating It is further divided into men's and women's events, and pairs skating and ice dancing are composed of one man and one woman. Therefore, figure skating in the Winter Olympics has 4 events. Single skating
As mentioned before, single skating is divided into men's and women's events in the Olympics. There is no major difference in scoring. They are all based on the difficulty, variety, and cleanliness of the athletes' movements. Rated for degree, grace, and speed. The competition is divided into short program and free skating. Like pairs skating, the short program is held on the first day and the free skating is held on the second day. In the short program of single skating, both male and female athletes must complete a set of 8 actions including jumps, spins, joint jumps, and joint spins within the time limit of 160 seconds (2 minutes and 40 seconds). Programs composed of consecutive steps account for one-third of the athlete's total score. In terms of free skating, male athletes have to complete it within 4 minutes, while female athletes have an extra 30 seconds to complete a set of "well-choreographed skating actions consisting of jumps, spins, footwork and various postures." The score accounts for the total score of the athletes. The remaining two-thirds of the score is scored. Pairs skating
Pairs skating is the same as singles skating, including the short program and free skating. What is more special is that the pairs skating must be composed of one man and one woman. The competition is conducted in the order of pairs short program and pairs free skating. The first day is the pairs short program, and the next day is the pairs free skating. The pairs short program score accounts for one-third of the total score, and the latter accounts for three points of the total score. 2. Both events of pairs skating must be performed by two men and women. In addition to individual skills, athletes must also perform some prescribed actions, such as "one-arm or two-arm overhead lift." , "double spin", "spiral", "jump", etc. In addition, you can complete all free skating actions and optional actions of single skating. Ice dance
Ice dance originated from figure skating. It focuses on dance and emphasizes the expression of music through movement. It must be composed of a man and a woman. The ice dance competition is conducted in the order of prescribed dance, creative dance and free dance. It is stipulated that dance movements should account for 30% of the total score. The ISU Technical Committee publishes four prescribed dances each year, including a waltz. On the eve of the competition, lots will be drawn to determine the two required dances that the athletes need to dance. The score of each dance includes "technical score" and "rhythm score". The choreography stipulates that you can choose a dance and the time is 2 minutes. The score includes "arrangement score" and "performance score", accounting for 30% of the total score. The final free dance refers to "the dance steps of your choice" and "the whole newly choreographed dance". You must choose your own music, and the competition time is 4 minutes. The score will be based on the athlete's "technical level score" and "artistic impression score", which will account for half of the total score. Free skating
One of the figure skating events. Including single free skate and double free skate. Single free skating means that skaters can freely perform various technical actions on ice, such as jumps, spins, joint spins, and successions, to the accompaniment of their own music within a specified time (different for male and female players, and different age groups). Steps; a complete set of performance moves such as free skating moves and connected footwork, etc. Pairs free skating is for two people to skate freely on the ice within a specified time (4 minutes and 30 seconds for adults and 4 minutes for juniors) to the accompaniment of music of their own choice. The movements they perform should include lifts, twirling lifts, throws, single jumps, double spins or combination spins, single spins, spirals, double follow-ups and other double skating actions, etc. Free dance
One of the figure skating events. It is a set of dance moves that the contestants choreograph themselves to the accompaniment of their own music within a specified time (4 minutes). There are no restrictions on the rhythm and rhythm of the music. Competitors can play whatever they want according to their own strengths, but pairs skating movements are not allowed. It is one of the ice dancing competitions. Created choreography (made; up dance)
One of the figure skating competition events. It is a set of ice dances that the contestants choose music according to the prescribed rhythm style and rhythm, and choreograph themselves within the prescribed time (2 minutes). Contestants must choose music correctly according to regulations; and then creatively arrange it according to the requirements and the style and characteristics of the music. The choreographed movements, footwork, dance postures, styles, rhythm changes and the way the two people connect, etc., should be consistent with the selected music; this requires the choreographer and performers to have a clear understanding of the style and characteristics of the music they choose. Deeper understanding. Ice games
refers to various game activities that people use homemade equipment to play on artificial or natural ice and snow.
Common ones popular in the provinces of Beijing, China include ice tops, ice sleds, ice sleds, ice slides, ice plows, snow hockey, etc. Lift
A technical term for figure skating. It refers to a series of continuous actions in which two people are connected in a certain way while gliding. The male partner lifts the female partner into the air, completes the turning action, and then falls to the ice. The completion of the lifting action is determined by the connection method of the two people, the timing of the female partner's take-off and the number of turns. For example, two weeks of single-arm hip support, hook hand lift, etc.
1. V-shaped walk 1. First stand in a V-shaped stance. (Spread your feet into a V-shape, about 45 degrees shoulder-width apart. When we stand in this way, the wheels will not slide. This is the basic standing posture in inline skating.) 2. Lean your body slightly to the left, and slowly shift your center of gravity Transfer to left foot. 3. Lean your body slightly forward and lift your right foot forward. 4. Place your right foot down firmly and shift your weight to your right foot. According to this trick, lift the left and right feet forward alternately and put them down smoothly to familiarize yourself with the feeling of shifting the center of gravity. 2. Stand up after falling 1. If you can't stop when sliding forward, don't panic, stretch your hands to your chest first. 2. Squat with your knees. 3. Lower your knees to the ground first. (Knee pads are very useful at this time.) 4. The fingers should be spread flat and flat on the ground. Since your body will still rush forward after landing, remember to have your hands ready in front of your chest. 5. After the force of the dive is offset, prop up your body with both hands. 6. Squat up with your right foot, kneeling on one foot, and place your hands flat on the knee of your right foot. 7. Press down hard with both hands to prop up the body. 8. Stand in a V-shaped stance. 3. When sliding forward, the feet should be in an outward shape. When the right foot moves forward, the right foot should slightly press the outer edge ("blade" is the standing method), the left foot should slightly press the inner edge, slide out with the right foot, and push hard with the left foot. , shift the center of gravity slightly to the right front, then let the right foot slide for a while, and then switch to the left foot. At this time, the center of gravity should be pulled back, push the left foot back together, and then put the center of gravity on the left foot. Continue in this way. That’s it! 〉The center of gravity is very important. When skating, you have to keep changing your center of gravity~~~It's just two feet pushing hard...how can it be fast? Not only do you need to change the center of gravity, lowering the center of gravity will help the stability of skating~~~Skating, of course~~~In addition to the above points, it is also important to retract the feet, which can also increase the speed (because it can increase the distance of pushing the blade). You must be "elegant" but also close your butt, and don't hunch your back, otherwise it will be really ugly... 4. Turn left, for example: when walking, the left foot is forward and the right foot is behind, and the upper body (from the waist up) is facing with the hands flat. At the center of the circle, you also need to press the edge~~~The center of gravity is on the left foot and presses the outer edge, and the right foot can push the edge naturally... In this way, you can draw a beautiful arc! 5. When T is slipping forward Keep your feet still and keep gliding with your feet one behind the other... Then gently lift the rear foot off the ground, then turn the sole of the lifted foot 90 degrees, and then gently lift the foot off the ground. Put your raised foot on the ground... Let the wheel make contact with the floor and brake slowly.
(At this time, the center of gravity should be on the front foot, and the knees are slightly bent) 6. Sliding forward and sliding back. When we slide forward and want to slide back, we can lightly jump... turn 180 degrees to complete or use a simpler way: start Put your feet in front of you and one behind you (I am used to putting my right foot in front), and then gently lift the heels of both feet off the ground a little... Using the toes as the axis, turn your body 180 degrees or use your right foot as the axis first. Center of gravity... Just turn your left foot 180 degrees (to form a small crab step) and then turn your right foot 180 degrees! 〈P . Ｓ . When turning, try not to open your feet too wide and keep them parallel, so that the movement will be clean and neat
