Ice Legend: Figure Skating Simulator

The crackle of the rink's speakers dies out as the opening notes of your Debussy-inspired short program spill across the frost-edged ice.

You push off from center, your blades carving sharp, clean lines into the worn surface as you glide through your opening footwork, cold air stinging your cheeks.

Halfway through the first minute of your routine, you catch your 1-star coach’s sharp, encouraging nod from the side boards, and a quick glance at the warm-up bench reveals Lina—this Regional Qualifier’s pre-event favorite—lingering to watch your every move, a flicker of curiosity on her face.

As you pour on speed to build up to your first planned jump, the single Axel: the highest-difficulty element in your debut routine, you face three small but high-stakes adjustments you can make to your approach right now.
