Mirror skating is a pair skating technique where both skaters perform the same movements simultaneously but in opposite directions, creating a mirrored effect. The skaters move in perfect symmetry, with their arms and legs matching each other's actions as they glide across the ice. This type of skating highlights the synchronization, precision, and teamwork between the partners, requiring them to be highly attuned to each other’s movements.
