Bryan – Check at :40 when Michelle explains “have the skater go up onto the toe and lift their free leg” Thanks!

Thank you Michelle – this video really helped me to see how this jump should be done. I appreciate how you repeat each step slowly and clearly !!!

great setup!

Thanks Michelle! Nice thorough explanation and simple to teach! Thanks for all of your wisdom! I appreciate all of your jump videos and they have helped me be a better coach!

Love the video. Michelle is so wonderful at breaking down each piece of a jump, and clearly explaining what needs to happen. One thing I wondered about: I think Trevor has mentioned that at point of take-off you’re actually lifting off the toe pick. Michelle talked about the curving entrance, but didn’t mention anything about that.

This is the most helpful loop jump video I’ve watched on this site (and they have all been good!) Thanks so much for passing on your insights.

Michelle, you have help me so much in understanding jumps and being able to pass it on to my skaters! Keep the tutorials coming!

Thanks Michelle!! Another brilliant and invaluable video. Your contributions are so helpful. I love your passion for detail!

I love this video! It’s so helpful. I love all of Michelle’s videos. They’ve helped me tremendously. One video I’d love to see her do is the toe pick placement in the Lutz! Do you pick and draw back or do you pick and pivot? I’m confused with this jump. Thanks for such a great site. I watch it almost daily.

Brilliant – thank you. Look forward to using this on singles and correcting doubles too.

Wow – So many great tips in this video. I’d love to see Michelle working through these concepts with a skater.

As an adult skater that’s just starting to attempt loop away from the boards, this is so helpful! I feel like I’m on the back outside edge too long before I jump, so it’s good to know I’m supposed to feel that edge curve.
