About the Sport
Synchronized skating adds a dynamic dimension to
the world of competitive and recreational skating and is one
of the fastest growing ice sports. An exciting team sport, it is a specialized
branch of figure skating that involves
12-20 skaters performing intricate formations and breathtaking transitions all
choreographed to reflect
speed, unison, and accuracy.
In interpreting the highlights and story of the
music, teams must skate in complete unison; from their head positions and
expression to their arm holds and free leg positioning. The combination of
creative choreography, appealing music, and attractive costumes makes
synchronized skating a great sport for participants and spectators.
Synchronized skating teams accommodate skaters at
all skill levels from those just learning the sport to highly competitive
skaters. The focus on participation, fun, friendly competition, and lifetime
involvement is responsible for synchronized skating’s phenomenal growth.
