Currently the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics is officially over, many netizens have not been able to distinguish between pairs skating and ice dance until now? Next we *** with to explore the pairs skating and ice dance what are the same, and what are the differences?
The similarities are that both Pairs Skating and Dancing on Ice are a type of figure skating, both have the same scoring rules, and both are pairs programs consisting of 1 male and 1 female. In terms of competition venues, both Pairs Skating and Dancing on Ice belong to the same venue.
The difference lies in the number of points. Pairs skating, as a figure skating program, focuses on the difficulty of the movements and the degree of achievement, while ice dance, as a dance program, focuses on the perfection and smoothness of the movements. To summarize, pairs skating is technical, ice dance is artistic. Ice dance is always hand in hand, and each of us is happy with pairs skating. You can understand that ice dance is two people holding hands to dance, pairs skating is two people a piece of show skills to come. You can see where the lifting position goes. Ice dance mainly focuses on the steps, partial artistry, so the rules do not allow the male partner to lift the female partner to a position higher than the shoulders; while the pairs skating light lifting there are five categories, and sometimes you have to throw the female partner out ...... of course, you still have to catch!
Dance on ice is different from male and female pairs figure skating, which favors steps, there are strict limitations on skillful movements: typical pairs skating movements and single skating jumps and rotations are not allowed, such as too many, too high or more than a week and a half turn of the lifts, two people are too many, too long separations, two people at the same time, jumps, and too much modeling, etc., and it's even more taboo to pull a single hand on one person in the posture and Skating one person in the other person sitting, leaning, lying on the shape of the action. All of the above actions appear in the ice dance competition, will be deducted points. Finally one can also tell the difference between the two sports by their costumes. The length of the skirts of the female competitors. This is very understandable, pairs skating female partner's skirt is much shorter; ice dance female partner not only skirt to be long, and even wear pants, definitely not because of fear of cold! Mainly because of the difficulty of the action, the program requirements are not the same.
