Add to “My Favorites” (Beta testing)Thanks Nick and Audrey! Thank you for the detailed description. I have always taught stepping a little outside the circle, but I will try this technique! I appreciate your time, as always!
Thanks Sheila! This site is simply amazing!! Thanks for all the tips!
Monika!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! We’re so proud of you!
Thanks so much for these videos! After applying these techniques, I landed my first axel two days ago! I not only landed it clean the one time, but three times during the session after struggling for eight months learning it! Thank you thank you! 🙂
Thank you so much for posting this important video and taking the time to write the detailed explanation and noting comparisons. Think it all goes back to body alignment that goes for stroking, edges, etc. Shoulders over hips. Forward outside edge – skating hip leads free hip is back. Whether to step outside of circle a little or on the circle? Guess I should try it both ways to see what works better
I find the head is a major problem with skaters. If they control the head the rest of the jump usually follows. I have been doing the set up since Nick’s last video with the hands brushing the hips & have seen higher & more controlled jumps, even from my Basic Skills skaters. Thanks
