Discussions on Skating Skills have not led to their meaning. Suddenly we are bombarded with Patrick's Skating Skills which make up for his disasterous Falls in one competition.
The bullets for SS do not cover exactly what they are. Can we get an Official Definition of what Skating Skills are so we don't have to meander about it?
Are they connected to the turns of the School Figures, 3s, brackets, counters, rockers and loops? and is that all it's about? if not? what?
Are they the skaters' stroking, flow, musicality, diverse moves on ice showing the skills without tricks?
Are they tricks showing the skaters ability to execute them by definition?
It's time we move into the officialexplanation of what exactly Skating Skills are. We've had enough opinions.
