A web site for figure skaters of all ages involved in
Basic Skating Skills and USFS Figure Skating programs

The information on this site is provided to support skater's efforts to
achieve their full potential in the pursuit of his/her skating goals, and to
transfer those skills to their future education, career, and other life activities.

Information is an important tool that provides a basis for the articles
being developed. The goal is to help facilitate communications between judges
and coaches that provides the technical descriptions coaches use in their teaching
and for judges the basis they use to arrive at the minimum standard for passing each
level of tests.

Comments and suggestions are welcomed so a balance of different perspectives
can be achieved. Input from coaches and judges will help to achieve a consensus.
We hope our efforts will result in skaters who are well prepared to test and receive a
uniform evaluation by judges from rink to rink.

San Diego Figure Skating Communications (SDFSC) goal is to provide information
that encourages participation and achievement in the sport of figure skating.
 
Articles are continuously under development to serve as reading/reference
materials for seminars with an audience of skaters, parents, coaches, and judges.

Suggestions and comments from rink management, coaches,
     choreographers, judges, skaters, and parents are welcomed.
