TR 23.00 Reskating Any Element of a Moves in the Field Test TR 23.01 At the completion of any test and before any other test is conducted, the judge-in-charge must ask the other two judges individually if they wish to see any element reskated before the judges turn in their judging sheets. Should the judges wish a reskate, they will indicate to the judge-in-charge what they wish to be reskated. This must be done privately without conference. If a majority of the panel requests a reskate, the judge-in-charge will direct the skater to reskate the agreed-upon element. If the judges do not agree on which element to reskate, the judge-in-charge will decide.

Should the judges wish a reskate, they will indicate to the judge-in-charge what they wish reskated. This must be done privately without conference. If a majority of the panel requests a reskate, the judge-in-charge will direct the skater to reskate WKH DJUHHG XSRQ HOHPHQW ,I WKH MXGJHV ZLVK D UHVNDWH DQG GR QRW DJUHH RQ ZKLFK HOHPHQW V WR UHVNDWH WKH MXGJH LQ FKDUJH will decide.

The Dutch Waltz is skated in Kilian position, and both partners skate the same steps. The dance is skated to slow, deliberate waltz music and consists mostly of progressive sequences and long swing rolls. This is an easy dance for beginners consisting of forward edges only, and allows skaters to devote their attention to the dance steps in relation to the musical rhythm of the waltz. 6SHFLDO DWWHQWLRQ VKRXOG EH JLYHQ WR WKH QXPEHU RI EHDWV IRU HDFK VWHS LQ WKH SURJUHVVLYH VHTXHQFHV LQ RUGHU WR H[SUHVV WKH ZDOW] rhythm of 2-1-3.

During Steps 1 to 7, the lady and man are in closed hold with the lady skating backward and the man forward. The dance begins with a progressive sequence of three steps forming a lobe curving toward the midline. Step 4 is a four-beat swing roll curving toward the side barrier. It is important that the free legs match on the swing roll and that the partners remain close together. This is followed by another progressive sequence for both partners during Steps 5 to 7. Step 7 is skated slightly less deeply than Step 3, after which the lady steps forward on Step 8 and skates close beside the man in open hold until he completes his mohawk. 6WHSV WR VKRXOG EH VNDWHG DORQJ WKH FRQWLQXRXV D[LV RI WKH LFH VXUIDFH ZLWK 6WHSV WR FXUYLQJ DURXQG WKH HQGV RI WKH pattern.

The Kilian is a test of close and accurate footwork, unison of rotation and control. Upright posture is required throughout. The dance follows a counterclockwise elliptical pattern, but the start and succeeding steps may be located anywhere around the circle. Once established, however, no shift of pattern is acceptable on subsequent sequences. The clockwise rotation must be controlled. The partners skate close together in Kilian hold throughout, and particular care should be taken to avoid any separation and FRPLQJ WRJHWKHU RI WKH SDUWQHUV 7KH PDQ¶V ULJKW KDQG VKRXOG FODVS WKH ODG\¶V ULJKW KDQG DQG NHHS LW ¿UPO\ SUHVVHG RQ KHU ULJKW KLS WR DYRLG VHSDUDWLRQ 7KH PDQ¶V OHIW KDQG VKRXOG FODVS WKH ODG\¶V OHIW KDQG VR WKDW KHU OHIW DUP LV ¿UPO\ H[WHQGHG DFURVV KLV body. There are 14 steps done to 16 beats of music — Steps 3 and 4 are the only two-beat steps. All others are one-beat steps.

At the start of Step 8, the body weight shifts toward the outside of the circle, and a strong checking action from the shoulders is required to maintain this lean through Step 9. Step 8 is commenced with a cross roll, while Step 9 is tightly crossed behind. Both these steps require a strong knee action. Steps 9 and 10 constitute a crossed in front open choctaw. The right free foot must be placed on the ice slightly in front of the skating foot, with both knees well turned out in a momentary open position. A strong checking action from the shoulders and hips is necessary at the start of Step 10 to counteract the turning movement. The left foot leaves the ice and, at Step 11, crosses EHKLQG WKH VNDWLQJ IRRW WR D /%, HGJH Step 12 is taken with the feet passing close together, but Step 13 is crossed in front. Correct clockwise shoulder rotation for both partners on Steps 12 and 13 facilitates close stepping. Step 14 should be stepped close to the heel of the skating foot and not stepped wide or ahead. Care must be taken not to prolong this edge. A well-bent knee and upright posture are required on Step 14. ,19(1725 .DUO 6FKUHLWHU ),567 3(5)250(' (QJHOPDQQ ,FH 5LQN 9LHQQD $XVWULD

During Step 26, the man releases his left hand and places it across his back. The lady then clasps his left hand with her right hand. The man releases his right hand so that, on Step 28, he can turn his three behind the lady. During Steps 26 to 28, the man may bring his right arm forward or place it by his side. Steps 27, 28 and 31 are commenced by the man as cross rolls and Steps 27 and 31 as cross rolls by the lady. Step 29b for the lady is a cross behind chassé after which she must be careful to step beside, not step ahead. On completion of Step 29, the partners assume Kilian hold that is retained until Step 32. On Step 32 the man skates a slide chassé while the lady turns a swing three-turn, with a backward lift of the free leg in time with the music, into closed hold to restart the dance. ,19(17256 &RXUWQH\ - / -RQHV DQG 3HUL 9 +RUQH ),567 3(5)250(' 4XHHQV ,FH 5LQN /RQGRQ (QJODQG

This dance is skated in Kilian hold throughout with both partners skating the same steps. To ensure a really good performance, it is essential that the couple remain hip to hip — that is with the man’s right hip against the lady’s left. The Quickstep must be danced in keeping with the music that is fast and of bright character. )RU WUXH HGJHV WR EH VNDWHG LW LV HVVHQWLDO WKDW WKH GDQFH EH VWDUWHG DSSUR[LPDWHO\ RQ WKH PLGOLQH DW WKH HQG RI WKH LFH VXUIDFH 7KH VHTXHQFH RI VWHSV UHTXLUHV DSSUR[LPDWHO\ WKH OHQJWK RI WKH LFH VXUIDFH DQG WKH GLUHFWLRQ RI WKH HGJHV VKRZQ LQ WKH GLDJUDP must be adhered to.

The Finnstep is a fun, fast dance. The best way to describe it is that it resembles “sparkling champagne.â€? It is a ballroom-type Quickstep, and should be danced very lightly, so to speak “over-the-top.â€? This dance is not serious, so it can even be performed D ELW FRPLFDOO\ 3ROND IRONORUH FKDUDFWHU VKRXOG EH DYRLGHG It requires very crisp and tidy timing as well as footwork. The timing is the most important characteristic of the dance, and lack of crisp and clean timing and character should be penalized severely. The accent should always be at the beginning of the beat, not just on the beat. By skating the steps at the beginning of the beat, the couple achieves the required lightness. This dance measures the musicality of the couples. The posture should be very upright, almost stiff throughout the dance. It is essential to skate the longer steps with strong, well URXQGHG GHHS HGJHV WR FRQWUDVW ZLWK WKH FULVS OLJKW VWHSV WRH VWHSV DQG KRSV VPDOO MXPSV ZLWKRXW URWDWLRQ IRXQG WKURXJKRXW WKH GDQFH -XVW VNDWLQJ WKH VWHSV LV QRW HQRXJK ,W LV KRZ WKH VWHSV DUH H[HFXWHG DQG ZKDW LV ÂłVDLG DQG H[SUHVVHG´ ZLWK WKH WHFKQLTXH WKDW LV LPSRUWDQW QRW WKH WHFKQLTXH LQ LWVHOI 7KH WHFKQLTXH LV RQO\ D WRRO IRU H[SUHVVLRQ ZKLFK PXVW EH VWURQJ 1.

The left forward outside edge is held for two beats while the free foot is brought to the side of the skating foot followed by a lift and a pronounced outward movement on beat three coinciding with a rise of the skating knee as the edge is changed to inside and then back to outside. Step 4, which is crossed in front, is followed by a bold outside edge on Step 5. 6WHS LV D FURVV UROO DQG 6WHS LV D FURVV EHKLQG 7KH ULJKW IRRW LV WKHQ H[WHQGHG ZLGH WKH PDQ¶V ULJKW OHJ SDVVHV RYHU KLV SDUWQHU¶V OHIW IRU 6WHS 6WHS LV SODFHG DW WKH VLGH RI WKH ULJKW IRRW DQG WKHQ 6WHS LV FURVVHG EHKLQG 6WHSV WR DUH KHOG for four beats each with each step commencing on the third beat of the measure. A further wide step is made on Step 11 with the lady crossing her leg in front of the man’s and, on this edge, the man takes the lead. Step 12 is a wide-stepped crossed in front open choctaw immediately followed by a back wide-stepped crossed behind closed choctaw on Step 13. On the latter the left foot is drawn back and placed inside the circle. The free leg must be well controlled after the turn so that it moves forward immediately to ensure that the second choctaw is a choctaw and not a mere step forward. Care must be taken to ensure that a full four-beat edge is skated after both choctaws. In order to facilitate the simultaneous three-turns on Step 14, the lady must move slightly ahead of her partner. The free leg swings in front before the turn. The free leg position after the turn is optional. Step 15 is a cross roll, and Step 16 is crossed in front in order to facilitate stepping forward to restart the dance. &DUH PXVW EH WDNHQ WR SUHVHUYH WKH VPRRWKQHVV RI WKH 5KXPED DQG WR SUHYHQW WKH GDQFH IURP EHFRPLQJ H[FHVVLYHO\ ERXQF\ RU jerky.
