MITF test question
« on: January 31, 2015, 07:47:15 AM »
Hi everyone!  :)  Just wondering, if a skater has passed the Pre-Preliminary Standard Track MITF, and now wants to test the Adult Track, can they "cross over" and start with the Bronze moves test or do they have to do Pre-Bronze first?

If Pre-Prelim has been passed, it is not necessary to take the Pre-Bronze test.  The skater may start with the Bronze MITF test.

Just so you know, you can find a copy of the USFS rulebook online.  It will answer questions such as these - and even has all of the MITF patterns!  See here: http://www.usfsa.org/New_Judging.asp?id=361

This is a relatively recent change to the adult MITF as well, so you may encounter some who still believe that you can't crossover this way, but you can - when I tested my pre-bronze MITF almost 3 years ago, my prior pre-pre test didn't count for anything, but now it would have.
