Why was a figure skating competition, meeting in a sports center that could accommodate 7,000 seats, delayed?
Figure skating at the 1994 Goodwill Games Figure skating at the 1994 Goodwill Games took place in Saint Petersburg, Russia at the Yubileyny Sports Palace. Medals were awarded in the disciplines of men's singles, ladies' singles, pair skating, and ice dancing. The event, held in August 1994, was delayed by a day after a heat wave, a power outage and lack of air conditioning resulted in the ice not being ready.
6.0 system The 6.0 system (now known as the old scoring system) was the judging system used in competitive figure skating until 2005, when it was replaced by the ISU Judging System in international events as a result of the 2002 Winter Olympics figure skating scandal.
