DYNAMICS OF TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY OFFREE PROGRAMS IN MEN'S SINGLE SKATE IN SEASONS 2017-2022
Abstract and keywords
Abstract:
The study is dedicated to determining the dynamics of the technical difficulty of elements in men's single figure skating based on the results of major competitions held under the auspices of the International Skating Union (ISU) from 2017 to 2022. As a result of the conducted research, no significant increase in the technical score for the free skate program during the studied period was observed. However, upon closer analysis, a trend towards an increase in individual components of the technical score was detected. By using methods of mathematical statistics, it was determined that during the period under consideration, the proportion of jump elements in the overall structure of the technical score of leading skaters was approximately 76%. A conclusion was made about an increase in the number of quadruple jumps and combinations including them. It was established that the number of quadruple jumps performed to receive a positive evaluation from the judging panel (GOE) has increased. The variety of quadruple jump elements changed slightly, mainly due to an increase in the proportion of 4S jumps, while 4F, 4Lz, and 4Lo jumps were performed only on individual occasions. Altogether, these facts indicate a gradual increase in the technical difficulty of men's free skate programs
