International Open

2025 (3) Figure Artworks + (1) Fancy Skating Performance = Overall International Open Champions

In the 2025 International Open – every Figure Artwork starts on the right foot.

Note: 6 tracings on all Figure Artworks

Registration is opened and managed through World Figure Sport’s Global Headquarters for each International Open Skating Artist (21 & over). This direct communication is helpful for each Skating Artist and their coach. Our International Open Skating Artists may represent their family’s heritage or current residence.

Once registered through headquarters, every International Open should announce by print promo and video of their quest and journey preparing for the 2025 International Open at the World Figure & Fancy Skating Championships on black ice to their friends, family, and associates. Please share World Figure Sport’s Venmo @worldfiguresport or the WFS credit card donation link and ask inspired people to donate to the World Figure Sport Society, not-for-profit, that makes this legendary Art Movement all possible with everyone’s help.

Please ask inspired donors to write in honor of in the notes. With everyone’s help World Figure Sport will receive $100 per competition segment (4 total segments performed for an overall International Open Ranking) per International Open Skating Artist.

This fundraising goal includes entry and unlimited black ice practice but does not actually pay for the World Championships as it helps so more may be raised than the minimum goal. Also, new WFS Sponsorships are welcome and anyone may donate in honor of a Skating Artist and/or the skater may also directly help, too.
