Abstract:

Figure skating is a distinct youth sport often overlooked in the sport psychology literature. This paper reviews the literature to substantiate how figure skating presents challenges for adaptation and development not shared by other sports. The possible implications of figure skating on identity and self-worth are considered, as is the role of coaches in the figure skating environment and how they can potentially foster or hinder their athletes’ positive psychological development. In this regard, the possible application of parenting style theories is discussed in the context of figure skating coaches. Finally, Smith, Smoll, and Curtis’s (1979) Coach Effectiveness Training program is considered as a potential intervention program to promote healthy psychological development for young figure skaters.

Abstract:

Context: As the popularity and technical demands of figure skating increase, so will the number of athletes presenting with sport-related problems. Evidence Acquisition: Searches were performed across PubMed from 1980 to 2017. The keywords searched were skating, skaters, incidence, and injuries. The search was limited to English-language articles and human participants. Relevant articles were cross-referenced. Study Design: Clinical review. Level of Evidence: Level 5. Results: Previous studies suggest an increase in incidence of figure skating injuries from 1982 to 2003. When combining all disciplines of figure skating, there is a similar proportion of acute and overuse injuries. Within disciplines, overuse injuries appear to be more common in singles skating, while acute injuries are more common in pairs skating, ice dancing, and synchronized skating. Lower extremity injuries are more common than upper extremity injuries in all disciplines, and pairs skating accounts for the majority of upper extremity injuries. Ankle sprains are the most common skating injury, and patellar tendinitis is the most common overuse injury across all disciplines. Stress fractures are the most common overuse injury in female singles skaters. Conclusion: The predominance of overuse injuries in singles disciplines reflects their increasing technical difficulty, with more difficult jumps and longer training hours. Partner disciplines are more likely to involve acute injuries and upper extremity injuries due to high-risk throws and lifts. Emphasis should be placed on properly fitting skating boots, intrinsic foot and ankle strengthening, and lower extremity flexibility, which may prevent many of the common lower extremity and back injuries in figure skating.

Abstract:

Figure skating video jumping action is a complex combination action, which is difficult to recognize, and the recognition of jumping action can correct athletes’ technical errors, which is of great significance to improve athletes’ performance. Due to the recognition effect of figure skating video jumping action recognition algorithm is poor, we propose a figure skating video jumping action recognition algorithm using improved deep reinforcement learning in Internet of things (IoT). First, IoT technology is used to collect the figure skating video, the figure skating video target is detected, the human bone point features through the feature extraction network is obtained, and centralized processing is performed to complete the optimization of the extraction results. Second, the shallow STGCN network is improved to the DSTG dense connection network structure, based on which an improved deep reinforcement learning action recognition model is constructed, and the actionrecognition results are output through the deep network structure. Finally, a confidence fusion scheme is established to determine the final jumping action recognition result through the confidence is established. The results show that this paper effectively improves the accuracy of figure skating video jumping action recognition results, and the recognition quality is higher. It can be widely used in the field of figure skating action recognition, to improve the training effect of athletes.

Abstract:

The phenomenon of hijab is creating more and more space for consideration. The use of hijab among female athletes in various sports is increasing. This research discusses the clothing performance of Zahra Lari, a figure skating athlete from Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Figure skating is a sport performed by dancing on ice with tight clothing attached to the athlete's body. This type of tight-fitting clothing is aerodynamic and lightweight to make it easier for athletes to move without feeling overloaded. Zahra Lari was the first female athlete to wear the hijab at the 2012 European Cup Winter Championships in Italy. Zahra Lari received a deduction in the competition due to her unusual use of the hijab. The deduction made Zahra Lari appeal to the International Skating Union (ISU), because she felt unfairly treated. The appeal was eventually accepted by the ISU and since then many figure skating athletes have worn the hijab in various competitions. Zahra Lari's efforts to negotiate the figure skating clothing model with the addition of hijab is the focus of this research. This research aims to explain how Zahra Lari negotiates culture in order to be accepted to compete in international figure skating competitions without leaving her attitude and worldview in dressing. This research uses a qualitative method. Data collection techniques were carried out by studying English-language media and remote interviews. Interviews were conducted with Zahra Lari as the main informant. Interviews were also conducted with a figure skating coach in Kuwait and a Kuwaiti national figure skating athlete. The results showed that Zahra Lari's cultural negotiation had an impact on cultural harmonisation in figure skating.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Understanding the association between sport specialization in young athletes and injury continues to be an important goal of sports medicine specialists. However, studies focused on females were scarce. Additionally, studies dedicated to sport specialization in the performing artistic athletes, including figure skaters are deficient at this time. Purpose: 1) To investigate the prevalence of sport specialization in a cohort of female figure skaters, and 2) to determine if low back injury is more common in specialized female figure skaters compared to female figure skaters who are not classified as specialized. METHODS: Cross-sectional survey study design was used. Questionnaire data was collected from three major figure skating clubs in the Greater Boston area. Female figure skaters (age range: 5 to 22 years) were asked the following questions based on established sport specialization criteria: 1) Do you solely perform figure skating?, 2) Did you quit other sports to focus on figure skating?, and 3) Do you participate in figure skating more than 8 months/year? Status of specialization was defined as a “yes” answer to all 3 questions while “no” to any of the 3 questions was labeled as non-specialized. All participants were asked about a history of low back injuries, including muscular spine pain, stress fracture (spondylolysis/spondylolisthesis), disc protrusion/herniated disc, sciatica, and spinal cord injury. Descriptive statistics and chi-square analyses were performed, with p ≤ 0.05 as the critical statistical value. RESULTS: A total of 132 female figure skaters (mean age: 14.0±4.0 years) were analyzed. Approximately, 85% (112/132) of female figure skaters solely participated in figure skating and 54% (71/132) quit other sports to focus on figure skating. Almost all of the female figure skaters (99%) (131/132) engaged in figure skating lessons/practices > 8 months/year. About 62% (82/132) of figure skaters were classified as specialized, and 38% (50/132) were classified as non-specialized. There were no significant difference in low back injury history between the specialized female figure skaters (25.6%, 21/82) and non-specialized female figure skaters (24.0%, 12/52, p=0.836). CONCLUSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The majority of female figure skaters in this cohort were classified specialized, and almost all female figure skaters participated in figure skating more than 8 months of the year. Although no association with low back injury was found based on status of specialization, more research is needed including effects of training volume on injury risk in female figure skaters.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the study of the sports slang features of figure skating fans in the modern Russian. The relevance of the study is due to the increased interest of domestic fans in figure skating, which was expressed in numerous author’s materials and comments on the Internet. The research was conducted on the material of the texts published on the Internet platform “Zen” for 2021—2022. The material includes 115 slang units. The main functions of modern sports slangisms in the sphere of “Figure skating” (nominative, expressiveevaluative, identifying, function of language economy) were studied. The main thematic groups of studied slangisms, represented by the names of sports competitions, programs and elements, figure skaters, athletes, coaches, ratings, fans / supporters, sports organizations are established. The main productive wordformation models of lexical elements of modern sports slang in the sphere of “Figure skating"” in Russian-language Internet communication are revealed. Conclusions are made that the most productive way of word formation of slangisms in the field of “Figure skating” are abbreviations of various types.

Abstract:

The study aims to highlight the impact of practicing recreational figure skating by evaluating the relationship between the perceptions of motor, mental and social benefits of practicing figure skating and the frequency and duration allocated for this recreational activity. The study included 143 students of physical education and sport specialization. The questionnaire was designed to evaluate the students’ perception about the benefits of practicing recreational figure skating; it included 30 items divided in three parts: motor, mental and social benefits. Each of them contained 10 items to be assessed by students using the Likert scale, with 2 items related to the duration and frequency of practicing figure skating during recreational time. The results were processed using SPPS 24. The results were statistically significant at p < 0.05. The Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient of the questionnaire was α = 0.965, suggesting that the items had high internal consistency. Using the Likert scale, we found the following: concerning the high score 5 points—the motor capacity 62.9%, the mental capacity 49.7%, the social capacity 49.7%; and for a low score of 1 point—mental and social capacity 1.4%, motor capacity 0.7%. The effect size was medium for almost all items. No statistically significant correlations were found between the result of the questionnaire and the frequency and duration of practicing figure skating during free time. Figure skating is considered by students to be one of the activities through which a series of parameters of physical development and level of physical fitness can be improved through the expansion of motor skills. Also, the practice of figure skating contributes to the formation of proactive behaviors by improving the mental and social abilities of practitioners.

Abstract:

The purpose of this qualitative investigation was to examine male competitive figure skaters’ experiences of weight pressure in sport. Specifically, male skaters’ perceptions of the ideal skating body, sources of weight pressure in elite figure skating, and the perceived role of their sport in shaping body image, athletic performance, eating, and exercise behaviors were explored. Through a social constructivist lens, an inductive thematic analysis was used to examine the contextual influences of the skating environment. Thirteen male figure skaters ages 16–24 (M = 18.53, SD = 3.33) with an average 10.38 years of skating experience (SD = 4.05) were interviewed. Skaters identified the parameters for the ideal body in skating along with specific weight pressures, body image concerns, and weight management strategies. Similar to female skaters, male skaters perceived that body image affected psychological factors that influence sport performance. Sport psychologists and consultants should be attentive to the skating environment and how specific performance and appearance demands may influence an athlete’s mindset.

Abstract:

This article investigates a somatic approach to movement on ice in several contexts. First, the examination of figure skating training and whether a somatic movement approach could be beneficial for the development of competitive athletes or recreational skaters. Second, whether this approach may diversify movement forms and artistic outcomes on ice. For this empirical research a mixed methodology was used and included an international survey, as well as Practice as Research process in the dance studio and on ice. This article argues that knowledge and research of somatic techniques integrated into contemporary dance training are transferrable to figure skating training, bringing a variety of positive developmental effects. The PaR process resulted in a performance installation titled Body Melts and suggests that there is potential for figure skating as an artform to be recontextualized and for audience expectations to be challenged.

Abstract:

This study explored the retirement experiences of elite figure skaters, using qualitative methodology. Despite the extensive research that exists on athletic retirement, no previous study has examined this particular group of athletes. Five former British Squad members and national medallists participated in an in-depth interview. Using Grounded Theory, a conceptual and theoretical framework was developed. The difficulty of a figure skater’s transition out of elite sport was found to be facilitated by the degree to which they internalised their sporting identity, as well as their perceived control over the circumstances surrounding their retirement. A failure to define a future self prior to retirement resulted in a fear to withdraw from figure skating as well as a difficultly assuming an identity without skating. To prevent future elite figure skaters from experiencing challenging adjustments to retirement, parents and coaches should promote the exploration of roles and skills away from figure skating.

Abstract:

Purpose:To examine relationships between physical characteristics and injuries in adult figure skaters.Methods:One hundred thirty adult figure skaters (113 women and 17 men, 43 ± 9 and 55 ± 10 y old, respectively) completed study questionnaires concerning health, height and weight, exercise habits, and injuries in the preceding year.Results:The men were older and taller and weighed more than the women (P < .05). Approximately 80% had normal body-mass index (BMI, weight [kg]/height [m]2), and the other 20% were overweight or obese based on BMI. Study participants had been skating for 12 ± 10 y (range 1 to 68 y). Most skate 4 to 5 h/wk (competitive > recreational skaters, P < .05). Although approximately 50% of competitive skaters always warm up or stretch before skating, less than 30% of the recreational skaters always do so (P < .05). Seventy-two skaters (56%) reported at least 1 injury in the preceding year. Most of the injuries were acute injuries to the lower extremity and were related to skating (76%). There were no differences in the incidence of stretching or warm-up activities or the number of hours per week spent skating in those who had incurred a skating-related injury compared with those who had not been injured (P > .05).Conclusions:The results suggest that adult skaters have training and exercise habits that might increase their risk of injury and impair athletic performance. This suggests the importance of educational programming for adult skaters designed to address injury prevention and basic exercise-training principles.

Abstract:

In this study, the authors examined female competitive figure skaters’ experiences of weight pressure in sport. Perceptions of the ideal skating body; sources of weight pressure; ways that body image, weight-management behaviors, and athletic performance have been affected; and recommendations for improving body image were explored. Aligning with a social constructivist view (Creswell, 2014), data were analyzed using an inductive thematic approach (Braun & Clarke, 2006). Skaters described the ideal skating body in an inflexible fashion with little room for deviation and acceptance of body diversity. Skaters cited their first weightpressure experience between 7 and 14 years of age, which most notably involved coaches, parents, skating partners, and other aspects of the skating culture. These experiences were characterized as promoting body-image concerns, unhealthy weight-management strategies, and interference with the psychological aspects of on-ice performance. Results from this study demonstrate the need to construct and maintain body-positive skating environments.

Abstract:

Figure skating is a sport that develops such mental and physical qualities as attention, self-control, speed, strength. Deficit of such qualities observed in children with autism spectrum disorders. A technique for teaching figure skating has been developed as a means of habilitating of children with autism spectrum disorders and mental disorders. Pilot testing of the technique was carried out in the inclusive section of adaptive figure skating “Crystal Puzzles”, Moscow. Fifteen children took part in the experimental testing: boys from 6 to 8 years old with autism spectrum disorders who regularly attend figure skating classes for at least 1 year. Classes were held in small groups from 2 to 5 people. For the competent organization of the training process, following recommendations were developed: tutorial support at the initial stage; educational material that takes into account the characteristics of each child; frontal and sagittal presentation; visual as well as partial and complete physical cues; dosing and reducing aid depending on the degree of development of skills. A survey of 15 parents confirmed the positive dynamics of children in the development of social, communicative and physical skills.

Abstract:

Although some elements of community sport organizations (CSOs) are welcoming and shared across all members, others may be contested. Organizational culture provides a conceptual lens through which to understand the meaning and experiences associated with CSOs. As the outer layer of organizational culture (Schein, 1985), artifacts can give further insight into participant experiences. The purpose of this study is to examine members’ perceptions of artifacts in a local figure skating club. We used Martin’s (1992, 2002) three perspectives to illuminate integrated, differentiated, and fragmented perspectives of The Club’s organizational culture. Eight skaters and seven adults from a midsize figure skating club in Canada participated in photo-elicited interviews. We found integration in participants’ discussion of the unique figure skating facility, differentiated perspectives of achievement-oriented artifacts, and fragmented perspectives of the skaters’ dressing rooms. Our research demonstrates the importance of examining the meanings associated with artifacts in sport organizations.

Abstract:

Figure skating is associated with a high prevalence of sport-specific injuries and overuse symptoms. Impacts are of greater magnitude in jumps with more revolutions that are thus connected to a greater risk of injury. While figure skating programs seem to have recently increased in difficulty, performance trends have not yet been reported in the literature. We hypothesized increasing performance and decreasing age trends of the best athletes who competed at international level in recent years. Furthermore, we aimed to identify and analyse objective performance parameters and to assess a potential link between age and the risk of injury. The development of the number of double, triple and quadruple jumps in the singles figure skating events at the World and European Championships since the introduction of the new ISU Judging System in the 2004/2005 season was analysed using regression statistics and Student’s T-Tests. In all groups, the numbers of jumps with fewer rotations significantly decreased in the favour of jumps with more rotations. Women only started to perform jumps with four rotations in 2019. In the men, the number of quadruple jumps increased from an average of less than one to more than three in recent years (European and World Championships, both p < 0.001). In the European, but not in the World Championships, the average age increased in the men and decreased in the women (European Championships, men and women p = 0.006). Our study was the first to assess performance trends in elite figure skating. The incidence of injuries and overuse syndromes in figure skating needs to be monitored cautiously, as increases can be expected following recent gains in performance and jump complexity.

Abstract:

The current study examined whether expectations, assumed to be created by the positive reputation of an athlete, produced a bias in judging at either the encoding or evaluation phase of sport performance appraisal. The short programs of 14 female figure skaters were evaluated by judges to whom the athletes were either known or unknown. Ordinal rankings were found to be higher when skaters were known by the judges as compared to when they were unknown. Furthermore, skaters received significantly higher technical merit marks when known, although artistic marks did not differ. No significant differences were found for the identification of elements or associated deductions, measures which were assumed to be indicative of the encoding phase of judging. These findings suggest that a reputation bias does exist when judging figure skating, and that it is present during the evaluation phase of sport performance appraisal, as reflected by the ordinal and technical merit marks.

Abstract:

Figure skating is the most subjective winter sport. If in other competitions, the result of the athlete is clearly monitored by a stopwatch, here the judges give marks for the performance. Judges are people who can be biased in judging or simply can make mistakes. 2002 was a turning point in figure skating judging. After the 2002 Salt Lake City USA Winter Olympics scandal, the so-called six-zero scoring system was replaced by a new judging system. The purpose of the research is to analyze the judges’ scores and dependencies between the final result and the separate segments of the evaluation when the ISU judging system was introduced in 2004. In order to achieve the set goal, the judging protocols of the Winter Olympic Games in women’s figure skating were studied after the introduction of the ISU judging system in 2004. After the introduction of the ISU judging system, the evaluation of the programs has become much more precise, where each element is evaluated separately. Expanding the scale for evaluating technical elements from -5 to +5 after the Winter Olympic games in 2018, according to the analyses carried out, leads to a greater weighting of the judging panel, which consists of 9 judges, rather than the technical panel, consisting of 3 specialists. This could ultimately lead to more objective judging in figure skating.

Abstract:

At the current stage of development of figure skating, its technical and compositional components have undergone drastic changes, even compared to the 2000s. If at the beginning of the last century, the basis of the competition program was formed by figures that require only skating skills and require not so much coordination as technical skills, then the modern competition program involves the performance of a wide arsenal of technical and choreographic elements, among which skating skills are only one of the evaluation criteria. Globalization and evolution of figure skating have brought this sport to a completely new level, expanding the number of disciplines and the variability of technical elements. The increase in the number of performing multi-turn jumps and the increase in the variability of rotations is the main vector that determines the direction of sports training and requires increased attention to these elements on the part of coaches and athletes. The diversity of the competitive program encourages athletes, coaches and choreographers to improve the elements of the technique according to various criteria, as well as to detail its components, which is difficult to achieve without their systematization. Technical elements were divided into classes by M. Panin-Kolomenkin, O. Mishin, and O. Tchaikovsky. Systematization of elements greatly facilitates coaching and is indispensable in judging and also provides an elementary understanding of the components of the sport directly for the athlete. However, in modern scientific literature, the issue of systematization of the main technical elements is highlighted in a fragmentary way, which emphasizes the relevance of this work.

Abstract:

Lower extremity injuries in figure skating have long been linked to skating boot stiffness, and recent increases in jump practice time may be influencing the frequency and seriousness of these injuries. It is hypothesized that stiff boots compromise skaters' abilities to attenuate jump landing forces. Decreasing boot stiffness by adding an articulation at the ankle may reduce the rate and magnitude of landing forces. Prototype articulated figure skating boots were tested in this study to determine their effectiveness in enabling skaters to land with lower peak impact forces. Nine competitive figure skaters, who trained in standard boots and subsequently in articulated boots, performed off-ice jump simulations and on-ice axels, double toe loops, and double axels. Analysis of the off-ice simulations showed decreases in peak heel force and loading rate with use of the articulated boot, although the exact kinematic mechanisms responsible for these decreases are still unclear. Analysis of the on-ice jumps revealed few kinematic differences between boot types, implying that the skaters did not use the articulation. Greater adaptation and training time is likely needed for the results seen off-ice to transfer to difficult on-ice jumps.
