TESTING

U.S. Figure Skating Testing

As skaters improve their skills, U.S. Figure Skating, through member clubs, offers test sessions to help them qualify for different competition levels. During a test, skaters are judged on how well they perform the required skills. USFS Judges watch the skater perform the required elements and determine if the test is passing. If they do, the skater can move up to the next level in areas like pairs, synchro, freestyle, moves in the field, and ice dancing.

Member test fee is:  $40.00 per test.
