Say,what were the very first moves you learned as a young Pairs skater,and at what age did you yourself learn to be thrown up in the air by your partner?

Although I do very little pairs, the basics for pairs and dance are the same - stroking. In hold. Endlessly. We still do!

The only pairs-specific move we do is a pivot-spiral, but I think the very first move we learnt was a side-by-side spiral. We haven't done any thrown jumps, but most of the pairs I know who do them are well over 50.

I was never a "young" pairs skater, having started as an adult, but.....what we did learn was how to guide to eachother. We couldn't even touch eachother early on! Now I can guide to anyone!
