Program Building
Build authentic figure skating programs following ISU requirements:

Free Skate (12 Elements)

100+ Skating Elements

Realistic Scoring System
Performances are scored using an authentic realistic system:
Technical Elements Score (TES)
Sum of all element base values plus Grade of Execution (GOE) ranging from -5 to +5. Each element's execution is evaluated based on skater skills and random variation. Falls result in -1 deduction and -5 GOE.
Program Components Score (PCS)
Three components judged by 9 judges (using trimmed mean): Skating Skills, Performance/Presentation, and Composition/Choreography. Component scores are multiplied by a factor (1.0 for Short Program, 2.0 for Free Skate).
Total Score
Final score = TES + PCS - Deductions. Scores determine segment placement, with Short Program and Free Skate combined for final standings.
Career Progression
Guide skaters through multi-season careers with realistic development:
- Career Arcs: Skills develop based on age-based progression curves with yearly adjustments (±20% variation)
- Aging System: Skaters age each season, with retirement typically occurring after age 28
- Training: Focus training on specific skills to guide development
- Practice: Complete practice sessions (up to 2 per event) for skill improvements
- 100+ AI Skaters: Compete against a full field of AI-controlled athletes with unique competitors for every universe
Rankings System
Track world rankings with authentic point system:
- Point Distribution: Winners receive full event points, 2nd place gets 90%, 3rd place 81%, decreasing by 10% each position
- 3-Year Rolling Window: Points from current and previous year count fully, points from 2 years ago decay to 70%, older points expire
- Weekly Updates: Rankings recalculate after each event
- Season Best Tracking: Monitor best Short Program, Free Skate, and total scores
