STARSkate Test Sheet Revisions: Please note the Senior Bronze, Junior Silver and Senior Silver free skate test sheets have been revised and are now available on Members only (dated April 2010). No changes have been made to the technical requirements but an additional specification has been added to the "step sequence" element on part 2: Program of the tests listed above. The sheets now state, "1 step sequence (straight line, circular, serpentine or spiral)". This addition is consistent with the test specifications outlined in section 4000 of the Official Rule Book and will remove any confusion regarding this element (steps sequences vs spiral sequence). Competitive Test Revisions: The requirement for a minimum skating skills score for competitive tests has been removed. This is effective immediately. These updates affect the following competitive tests: Competitive Singles - Juvenule, Pre-Novice, Novice, Junior, Senior; Competitive Pair - Juvenile, Pre-Novice, Novice, Junior, Senior; Competititive Dance - Novice, Junior, Senior. Test sheets for the above noted tests should be discarded and ones dated prior to April 2010 should not be used.
