Original Dance

Like the compulsory round, the rhythm of the Original Dance is chosen by the ISU before the season begins. However, skaters are free to select their own music and create original choreography. The program must be two minutes in duration and is worth 30 percent of the final score. Vocals are allowed in the music. The Original Dance is judged by two sets of scores, the Composition Mark and the Presentation Mark.
