Figure skating is a sport in which individuals, pairs or groups perform spins, jumps, footwork and other elements on ice skates, judged on technical execution and artistic presentation. It has been part of the Olympic programme since the 1908 Summer Games and every Winter Games since 1924, and is governed internationally by the International Skating Union.
