Majority

In 6.0 judging each judge ranks the skaters. “3/1” means three judges placed this skater first, a majority of the panel.

How scoring works

6.0 results

Judges rank the skaters instead of scoring them, so a 6.0 result is a placement and cannot be compared as a number.

How scoring works

IJS

The International Judging System scores every element and the program components, and the points add up to the total.

How scoring works

CJS

The judging system used at Compete USA events scores program components only, with no element scores, so its totals do not compare with IJS totals.

How scoring works

Technical score (TES)

The points for every jump, spin and step sequence: each element’s base value plus its grade of execution.

How scoring works

Component score (PCS)

The judges’ marks for the program as a whole, such as skating skills, composition and presentation, multiplied by a factor.

How scoring works

Deductions

Points taken off the segment score, for example for a fall or a time violation.

How scoring works

Base value

What an element is worth before the judges grade how well it was done.

How scoring works

Grade of execution (GOE)

The judges’ quality grade for an element, from −5 to +5, added to or taken from its base value.

How scoring works

Factor

The multiplier a level and segment apply to each program component mark.

How scoring works

Call marks

q quarter short · < under-rotated · << downgraded · e wrong edge · ! unclear edge. The technical panel adds them to the element code.
