Figure Skating?

Does anybody know any sites or information about why science is needed in figure skating?





Thanks|||If you mean "why" science is needed (as opposed to what the actual science is) . . . sport science is needed for performance enhancement and prevention of injuries.





This is not an article but a call out to science and sport medicine professionals:

Again, not an article, but a handout about Applying Sports Science to Optimize Health and Performance in Figure Skating:
