Testing
USFS Testing
As a skater advances and becomes more proficient in their skating skills, USFS, through their member clubs, offers test sessions in order for skaters to qualify for various levels of competition. In testing, skaters do not compete against other skaters, but are judged according to how well they complete the required elements for the test they are taking. USFS Judges watch the skater perform the required elements and determine if the test is passing. If so, the skater can then move to the next level in pair, synchro, freestyle, moves in the field, and ice dancing.
When Do I Test?
You and your Private Coach will determine when you are ready for a test. Test sessions are available at different times throughout the year. Your coach will be able to tell when and where the testing is. USFS sponsored test sessions are also available through clubs at other ice skating rinks throughout the country.
