Synchronised Development

Description

Synchronised skating was initially called precision skating in North America because of the emphasis on maintaining precise formations and timing of the group. Synchronized Skating uses the same judging system as singles, pairs, and ice dancing skating and is judged primarily on teamwork, precision, speed, difficulty, and performance. For a synchronized team to flow in unison, individual skaters must be competent at a variety of skating skills, including speed, footwork and ice presence.
