There are TWO gold medals (and two silvers and two bronzes) awarded in the pairs skating, but as each pair represents one country, the medal is counted as one more to the country's tally

start out skating backward, lift up your left foot a little bit, raising it behind you,\nTurn a little bit, followign your left shoulder and hop onto your left foot.\nTake it slow, small, low foot work and keep practicing.\nOr- if there are little girls skating around the rink that look like they know how, ASK them. They would think it was pretty cool to be able to teach someone older

Gymnastics and I'm not just saying that since i absolutely LOVE gymnastics.Just like gymnastics, figure skating is judged by judges of that sport. First off, in figure skating you must have balance right? Well then try out the beam! Try walking across it with your eyes closed! Then try doing tricks on the beam. If you have a lot of balance you will be able to be a great skater! If you want to be able to do tricks and spins...then you must practice that during gymnastics. Plus, gymnastics is the best sport in the world. It is so fun! And....its not as hard as you think it is. Learning how to do flips and stuff during gymnastics will really help you preform tricks on the ice! Good luck! :))

Each national sports governing body has their own selection process. In the U.S. ice skating is based on performance in the national championships, one event. In skiing, the skiers season standings.\n\nThe international federations also have rules on how many athletes are allowed to compete. For example, in figure skating, some are only allowed one skater, others two or three , depending on how well that countries skaters did in the last world champions ships. The U.S. got to have 3 women because of Micelle Kwan's 4th place finish at the last worlds.

Short answer: It's a spinning jump. It's the only one where the skater starts out going in a forward direction.\n\n\nLong answer:\nFrom the Wikipedia article:\nThe Axel is a jump in figure skating, named after the Norwegian skater Axel Paulsen (1855-1938) who was the first to perform it in 1882. A single Axel consists of 1 and 1/2 rotations in the air. For a jump with counterclockwise rotation, it has a takeoff from the left forward outside edge and a landing on the right back outside edge; this can be reversed for a clockwise jump. The Axel can also be done as a double jump with 2 1/2 rotations, or as a triple with 3 1/2 rotations. No skater has yet accomplished a quadruple Axel.

under the new scoring method in figure skating, it is still actually possible to gain points when you fall during a difficult jump because you gain points based on difficulty levels, then lose a set number of points by falling (the TV commentators explained how one of the competitors gained a half point by falling down because they got 3.5 points for attempting a difficult jump and then lost three when she fell.)\nAlso, the medals are based on combined scores over many parts of competition (basic figures, short program, long program) and an error in one area can be partially made up for by superior performances in the other areas.

Torvill and Dean, and Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto, are both ice dancers, not pairs skaters. \n\nBut I think that Torvill and Dean were the best ice dancers ever. \n\nAs for pairs skaters...I think that the best male pairs skater ever was Artur Dimitriev. He won the Olympic gold with two different partners, and he continues to have an influence on the sport even in retirment. \n\nAs for a complete pairs team - the best ever? In my opinion, it was Gordieva and Grinkov. They were excellent technical skaters, but they also brought real soul to their programs. They were the best combination of technical and artistry I've ever seen in pairs.

james,\n\nA country wins ONE medal for each event.  If there are say, two members to a team, ex. two-person luge, each member will get a gold medal.  Statistically however, one medal per event.
