I know the USFSA adult track MITF patterns are online; are the standard track patterns also available online somewhere? A link would be appreciated.
Thanks so much,

No. You will have to purchase the PSA videos.

I recently bought these videos. They are very good, but they don't show a step-by-step schematic of the moves like the pdfs on the adult track USFS page.
PSA does sell a MiTF book though, which might have this content.

I guess I could just buy the USFSA manual on CD/ROM, but I really just wanted the MITF patterns.
I do have the newest edition of the PSA book, but it's not that good. The patterns are 4"x6" and cover the left side of a page, with the suggestions and tips on the other half of the page. The PSA book doesn't mention the adult tests at all, no even on the patterns as the manual does. Someone was kind enough to print the new APBM 3-turn pattern and tuck it inside, but it has no notes or suggestions.
If you want the same information that's in the PSA book, just copy/print the patterns from the USFSA rulebook. Then add the judge's school notes and/or the PSA Video commentary, and you'll have made your own PSA book.
I wasn't looking for videos, and I already have the PSA videos, but thank you for the suggestion. I really just wanted to forward a link for the patterns on to another skater.
In discussing the Australian testing patterns, I found out that their test structure, patterns included, are all online. It's very convenient if you want to refer to something. I thought that perhaps the USFSA standard MITF test patterns had made it to the website at some point.

Oh, I thought you were looking for videos! My apologies! Try the judging section of the USFSA website. I think the test forms have the patterns drawn out.

Thanks anyway, techskater.
I just found THIS page online (http://www.denverfsc.org/moves/) and it looks fine for my purposes.
They did say it was out of date, so be forewarned.
