It requires well-disciplined, precise footwork; conformity with each otherâs steps; and a keen sense of timing and rhythm. Ice dancing differs from pairs skating in that ice dancers are restricted to lifts no higher than the manâs shoulders, and there are no jumps. One skate must be on the ice at all times.

Extractions: Kwan, Slutskaya renew rivalry 23 Mar, 2004 20:05 AP An old rivalry will be renewed Wednesday in the women's qualifying at the World Figure Skating Championships when Michelle Kwan and Irina Slutskaya, the last two world champions, are in the same qualifying group. An old rivalry will be renewed Wednesday in the women's qualifying at the World Figure Skating Championships when Michelle Kwan and Irina Slutskaya, the last two world champions, are in the same qualifying group. The Russian did not compete at last year's worlds, so she was considered a skater with no ranking and was randomly put in one of the two qualifying groups. That turned out to be same group as Kwan and three highly ranked Japanese: two-time bronze medalist Fumie Suguri; Shizuka Arakawa, who has been working on triple-triple-triples in practice; and junior world champion Miki Ando, the only woman to complete a quadruple jump in competition. In the other group is last year's runner-up, Elena Sokolova of Russia; Sasha Cohen of the United States; and European champion Julia Sebestyen of Hungary. That means the level of skating is higher and the competition fiercer in the first qualifying group, putting those women at a disadvantage because it's the ranking that counts, not the score. The qualifying result is worth 20 percent of the final score.

Extractions: The procession of victorious Russian figure skaters The Russian figure skating school re-affirmed its title as the best school in the world at the world championship in Dortmund, Germany. Russian figure skaters won three out of four gold medals. Tatiana Totmianina and Maksim Marinin became champions in the pairs competition, Tatiana Navka and Roman Kostomarov won the ice dance competition, and Yevgeny Plushenko won the men's event. This was the sixth time that Russians have accomplished the outstanding feat of winning three gold medals. They achieved the same results in 1975 (Colorado Springs), 1985 (Tokyo), 1992 (Oakland), 1998 (Minneapolis) and 2002 (Nagano). However, in 1999 in Helsinki, Russian figure skaters won four gold medals. Russian figure skating has a long history. Nearly 100 years ago, Russians achieved their first big success in this sport. In 1908, Nikolai Panin-Kolomensky, a famous Russian figure skater and a world and European champion, won a gold metal at the Olympics in London. After the 1917 revolution, in early Soviet times, figure skating was overlooked in Russia. This sport was considered aristocratic and expensive primarily because of the need to construct rinks with artificial ice. But in the 1950s, the Soviet Union had developed into world power in sport, and figure skating was promoted. Numerous children's figure skating clubs opened and ice skating rinks were built. As a result, in 1964, 56 years after Panin-Kolmenkin's victory, Soviet figure skaters Lyudmila Belousova and Oleg Protopopov won the pairs title at the Olympics in Innsbruck. Four years later, they repeated their victory at the Grenoble Olympics. Since then, the laurels in figure skating have belonged to Soviet, and later Russian pairs. The glorious Irina Rodnina won Olympic gold three times (in 1972-1980) in pairs skating. Soviet pairs, too, became trendsetters in the ice dance competition in the 1970s. The skills of the legendary couple - Lyudmila Pakhomova and Alexander Gorshkov - are still marvelled by both experts and admirers all over the world.

Extractions: The European championship will end today with the men's single-skating event. Russian figure skater Yevgeny Plyushchenko is leading the way in the short-dance event. Meanwhile Plyushchenko's main rival Alexei Yagudin (Russia) is not performing in Sweden this time. Plyushchenko is best known for his free dances, i.e. the concluding event. Therefore one can safely say that Plyushchenko is going to win the championship. Russian figure skaters, who are obviously leading the way in Sweden this year, have now won four gold medals. Meanwhile experts don't doubt Plyushchenko's forthcoming victory.

Within hours of the announced result, a story began surfacing involving the swapping of judging favors that threatened to taint the outcome of the ice dancing competition to begin later that week. Within days, the ISU acknowledged that it had seen enough evidence in the matter to recommend that the International Olympic Committee award an unprecedented second gold medal to the Canadians.
