5 ARTISTIC PROGRAM The Artistic Program is one in which the skating moves are selected for their value in enhancing the skater's artistry and interpretation of the music rather than for technical difficulty. Single jumps (including the Axel Paulsen) and one double jump are permitted; however, content may not exceed that for Free Skating at the same level. Credit for jumps and spins will be based solely on their choreographic effectiveness. The program should be an integrated exploration of the music; it should not be merely a collection of pleasing or spectacular moves with emphasis being placed on skating skills. Vocal music is permitted. Skating attire must be modest, dignified, and not garish or theatrical in design. Skating attire may, however, reflect the character of the music chosen. Any ornamentation attached to the clothing must be firmly fastened so as not to fall off while skating under normal competitive conditions. Accessories and props are not permitted. MARKING THE ARTISTIC PROGRAM A modified version of IJS will be used for artistic events: 1. Three marks will be given. a. Skating Skills/Transitions b. Performance/Interpretation c. Choreography See descriptions of the above program components in rule 2043 of the current Rulebook. 2. Freeskating elements will not be given technical scores but will be considered in their overall enhancement to the program with regard to skating skills. Each jump element in excess of the allowable content will receive a 1 point* deduction from the Referee. 3. The Referee will also take a 1 point* deduction for: a. Every 5 seconds where the maximum time is exceeded b. Falls (non intentional) c. Accessories and props an item which stays in one hand for the entire program will not be considered a prop as well as a hat which remains on the head. *reduced deductions will be taken for events below Juvenile/Open Juvenile Program time for Junior/Senior will be 2:40 minutes maximum; Juvenile Novice will be 2:10 minutes maximum.
