[edit] Trivia

One of the stunt skaters, Stephanie Rosenthal, actually went to Nationals. She placed 8th overall, and is the national collegiate champion.
Disney planned for Go Figure to be hugely successful and released a soundtrack and was planning to release a DVD. However, Go Figure did not live up to its expectations.
As stated on the original script, the working title of this movie was Stick It, which went on to be another Touchstone picture, that was released into theaters.
When Katelin puts on her hockey skates, her leggings are not on. When Ronnie returns the skate it is white. Her skates suddenly appear as neutral and her leggings suddenly appear.

[edit] Differences between the movie and real-world figure skating

The minimum age to appear in the World Championships is 16. At 14, Kaitlin would be ineligible for competition.
The U.S. Nationals does not use theatrical lighting for any of the programs, except the exhibiton.
The short program and free skate are held on different days. A winner could not be declared after a single skate.
Music for the short program and long program must be instrumental.
Shelby is said to have been in three world championships. Shelby is seventeen, and the minimum age is 16, so it is only possible for her to have been in two.
When Katelin is speaking to Shelby she says she skated at Salt Lake City, Utah, but she couldn't of because she would have been only 14 when the Olympics went on there, so Shelby would have been ineligible.
