    Fabulous collection of the jumping off ice sequences. For great skaters this is the secret to more accurate jumps. Sports science says these exercises are priming the muscles range of motion with strength, breath, coordination, flow and precision as well as the mental training.

    • @Skating_360
      @Skating_360  4 роки тому +3

      Start with the simple stuff, the two foot jumps, thrones started out on one foot, but with minimal rotation. Do not go up onto higher levels, before you don't feel certain of what you doing. Be observant, download it if you can, and play it in slow motion, observing core, shoulders and arms, hip and legs. Record yourself and analyze and compare :) Again everything with minimum rotation. you can also do walk-throughs: meaning you don't jump, you execute a movement in slow motion until you understand what you need to be doing. Oh and last but not least... most skater learn all these with instructors, they print-out the mistakes, they walk you through it. They make sure you don't learn false movements that you have a hard time correcting later. So I do recommend a coach. Good luck!

      Rotation is all about
      MOMENTUM - so the technique you are applying
      PHYSICS - so your own physical attributes, such as your centre of gravity, length of extremities etc.
      and POWER - so the strength you have to produce heigth, to iniciate spin and the tension in the air to hold your extremities in.
      If you want to improve on your rotations the only thing I can give you as advise is to practcie, practice, practcie. Incorperate Rotation practcie in your daily routine, and build up on your strength as much as possible parallel to that.
