Medal Winners Open
The Medal Winners Open is an invitational pro-am figure skating competition organized by the Japan Skating Federation and sanctioned by the International Skating Union. Medals are awarded in the disciplines of Men's and Ladies' singles. The invited skaters should have won a medal in a major ISU competition such as Olympics, Worlds, Europeans, 4CC, and Grand Prix Final.
Each skater performs an ISU free skating program in a modified format which emphasizes artistic merit. The program duration is 3 minutes and 30 seconds +/- 10 seconds for men and 3 minutes +/- 10 seconds for ladies. Three jump passes, three spins, and a choreographic sequence should be performed. One of the jump passes can be a two-jump combination or a sequence of jumps. Vocal music, theatrical lighting, and small props are allowed.
