Another solution: Go back to requiring skating figures as part of the score! Yeah, they are boring to watch but they teach a fluid grace and require a level of concentration and attention to detail few teens excel at.
Figure skating has become “Jumping On Ice”. It has become gymnastics instead of ballet...

Yes, they should require demonstration of the basics.
It’s like playing piano without reading music.

... It has become gymnastics instead of ballet...For sure. It is actually nerve-racking to watch rather than full-attention rousing.

I agree. Both the men and women look like gorillas as they are powering up for the jumps. Why bother with the dance?
