2020/2021 / 6 Estonian Skating Union EUL CLASSIFICATION 2020/2021 A-CLASSBeginners I A 2014 and younger (Pre-chicks A):Free skating 2:00 min. +/-10 sec.Free skating requirements (for both boys and girls):a) max. 4 jump elements, of which i) max. two (2) jump combinations or sequences. Combinations may consist of only two jumps. The jump sequence consists of two freely chosen jumps with a rotation number. The sequence starts with a freely chosen jump, followed by an Axel-type jump. The transition to the second jump is done by stepping directly from the edge of the first jump's landing to the edge of the Axel jump's takeoff. b) max. two (2) different spins c) one (1) step sequence that covers the entire rink.The components to be evaluated are:● Skating skills (skating ability)● Performance (performance)Component factor is 2.5. In all elements where levels are assigned, features are only evaluated up to level 2. Other features are not evaluated for level assignment.Beginners II A 2012/2013 (Chicks A):Free skating 2:00 min.+/-10 sec.Free skating requirements (for both boys and girls):a) max. 4 jump elements, of which i) one (1) jump must be an Axel-type jump. ii) max. two (2) jump combinations or sequences.

Combinations may consist of only two jumps. The jump sequence consists of two freely chosen jumps with a rotation number. The sequence starts with a freely chosen jump, followed by an Axel-type jump. The transition to the second jump is done by stepping directly from the edge of the first jump's landing to the edge of the Axel jump's takeoff. b) max. 2 different spins, of which i) one (1) spin combination with a foot change (min. three (3) rotations on each foot) or without a foot change (min. six (6) rotations in total) and ii) one (1) spin with a foot change (min. three (3) rotations on each foot) or without a foot change (min. six (6) rotations in total).

In all elements where levels are assigned, features are only evaluated up to level 2. Other features are not evaluated for level assignment.ISU evaluation criteria changes (adaptations for children/youth categories):1. Evaluation criteria are ISU Comm. 2334 and related annexes.2. All 1x and 2x jumps (incl. 1A) cannot be performed more than twice in the program.3. Program duration – every additional 5 seconds will result in a 0.5 point penalty.4. Fall – 0.5 point penalty.5. Interruptions in the program: Each interruption will result in a penalty: - 10 to 20 seconds: - 0.5- 20 to 30 seconds: - 1.0

• 30 to 40 seconds: - 1.5 Interruption is allowed up to 3 minutes, with continuation from the point of interruption – 2.5 points/program

6. In the free skating program, there is no factor 1.1 for jump elements performed in the second part.
7. Protest can be filed no later than 24 hours after the announcement of the competition results. Protest can be filed if there are arithmetic errors in the protocol. Errors in element identification or level assignment, although they result in a change in the point total, do not fall under the concept of "arithmetic errors" or incorrectly entered elements. In the case of an incorrectly entered element, all members of the technical panel (Technical Controller, both Technical Specialists, and Data Operator) must agree to correct the error. The recording made by the competition organizers will be taken into account. The cost of filing a protest is 50€ and must be paid together with the protest. The protest must be submitted to the category referee in writing. If the referee is not available, the protest must be submitted by e-mail to the competition secretariat, which will forward it to the referee. (ISU Rule 123).
