its perfect to understand and teach tje axel with this explained thanks, visual is better for me because i dont speak very good english.

OK thanks. I was remembering an article in PSA magazine that I read but since I can’t find my magazine to read it again – I’ve probably gotten it wrong – and not sure if they were talking about double/ triple. Thanks

Hey JB, I don’t think there’s much controversy anymore about skid or not to skid. Almost no coaches I know purposefully teach a skid on single axel these days. The skid that appears on double axel is a result of the need for more rotational energy and lift. Some coaches teach it on the double and triple but most just let it happen or not happen on it’s own.

Yes I believe you’re correct, ( must not watch these videos late at night) I think now he WAS referring to that first video – thanks missed that. Hope more is coming and if he addresses the take off (skid or not to) Cause again ( I think) there was some controversy about that now.

Actually, I think Nick was referring to a question he asked way back on the first video in this series– whether she had ever landed an axel. In THIS video he’s asking: did you cross your feet on that one axel you said you landed? I think. Anyhow, great series. The axel explained thoroughly and clearly from beginning to end. Really great stuff.

Really neat watching the progress to the axel. Great teaching always finding the positives and encouraging them. Thought it was cute/ interesting that when he asked her if she had her legs crossed on the 2nd attempt without the harness – she said she had-but we could see she did not. What happens to make you think you’re doing something when actually you’re not. I guess this is where video helps. Or you’re fortunate to take lessons with Nick. I love his demeanor.
