             The ISI competition is a yearly event which takes place in different locations. This event consists of all ice skaters, with competitors ranging from toddlers to adults, showcasing their hard work and practice in front of a group of judges. During this event the competitor receives a paper showing the requirements for this competition. For example if someone is at a high figure skating level they are required to do a presentation of 2 minutes using any maneuvers they would like.

          The differences between each competitor's performance and the work and the effort that they each put into their preformance, from the music to the costumes, is really an outstanding sight. There are many different types of levels in this skating competition. These range from toddlers begginer to adult freestyle 10 ( the highest level in skating).
