Inline figure skating

Inline figure skating

Inline figure skating is figure skating on inline figure skates -- 3 or 4 wheel frames with a toe-stop, mounted on figure skating boots in rockered configuration.

Inline figure skating began as an off-ice training alternative for ice figure skaters. The International Roller Sports Federation (FIRS) has recognized it as artistic roller skating on inline skates and includes inlinefigure skating freestyle competitions at its world championships [ [http://www.rollersports.org/datas.asp?load=417743060A009&show=T0018 Federation International de Roller Sports : Artistic Roller Skating Speed Roller Skating Roller Hockey and Inline Roller Hockey, Figure artistic speed skating.

Rollersports . org ] ] [ [http://www.rollersports.org/artistic-roller-skating.htm Artistic Figure Roller Skating : FIRS : Federation Internationale de Roller Sports : International Federation of RollerSports ] ] .Most of the participants are in fact quad/inliners.

On the other hand some ice figure skating member federations such as the ISU recognize the value of inline figure skating as off-ice training and many ice figure skating coaches have become qualified & certified ice/inline figure skating and dance coaches.Fact|date=February 2007
