Sport presentation
An ice sport performed on skates. Ice skaters perform in four main disciplines: women’s singles, men’s singles, pairs (in addition to jumps, lifts and other techniques are added), and ice dance (performed in pairs, but the skaters do not perform jumps and add elements of classic dances such as the waltz, the tango, etc.). In competition, each discipline is divided into two parts: a short program/dance and free skate/dance. The sum of the points scored in these two programs gives an overall score which determines the final leaderboard and podium.
