- Artistic roller skating is a competitive sport similar to figure skating but where competitors wear roller skates instead of ice skates. Within artistic roller skating, there are several disciplines:
Figures: the individual follows the figure circle line on a specific edge. Figures become progressively more complex with the addition of turns and the use of the third circle (similar to compulsory or "school" figures on ice).Free Skating: Individual skaters perform solo routines with jumps varying from singles to doubles, triples and quads, and spins to their chosen piece of music. They compete with a Short Program (usually around 2:45 minutes long) and are then classified in Top 10 and Less Top 10 categories depending on their rankings in the Short Program to compete in the Long Program (also known as a Free Program and usually around 4 minutes long).Duo Free (also called Pairs): two individuals perform jumps, spins, and lifts to their chosen piece of music.Couples Compulsory Dance: two people perform a dance consisting of a set sequence of steps in a pattern around the rink to a piece of music to a given tempo. There are no jumps or spins.Solo Compulsory Dance: an individual performs a dance consisting of a set series of steps in a pattern around the rink to a piece of music to a given tempo. There are no jumps or spins.Quartet: A themed routine performed by a team of four skaters. Team skating, similar to synchronized skating on ice.Club Show: A club of skaters perform a themed show routine.Original dance: the individual dancer or dance couple performs a routine to a musical medley with a set theme. The original dance includes a section that is a set compulsory dance but the rest of the routine is original choreography in keeping with the given theme. In national and international championships at the Junior and Senior level, original dance has replaced compulsory dance.Solo dance: the individual dancer or dance couple performs a routine to their chosen piece(s) of music. Solo dancers first compete with a Style Dance which includes a Pattern Sequence corresponding to the required steps from a compulsory dance and three of: Travelling Sequence, Cluster Sequence, Footwork Sequence and Artistic Footwork Sequence. Only three of the four elements are presented depending on the requirements for the year implemented by the World Skate Technical Commission. After the Style Dance, skaters compete with a Free Dance routine including all four elements in addition to a Choreographic Sequence. In couples free dance there are restrictions on the types of lifts allowed. In this discipline, skaters are allowed to perform one to two single-rotation jumps and/or a basic spin.Large GroupsSmall GroupsArtistic roller skaters use either quad or inline skates, though quad skates are more traditional and significantly more common. Generally, quad and inline skaters compete in separate events and not against each other. Inline figure skating has been included in the world championships since 2002 in Wuppertal, Germany.
