Figure skating — speed skating[1] sport, refers to hard-house sports. The basic idea is moving athlete or a couple athletes on skates on the ice with the change of sliding direction and execution of additional elements (rotation, jumps, combinations of steps, supports, etc.) to the music.
Figure skating as a separate sport emerged in the 1860s, and in 1871 was recognized at the I Congress of skaters. The first competition was held in Vienna in 1882 among men skaters.
