The Bad Ass Faves series brings you some of the top roller derby coaches in the world and their favorite drills! Brought to you by @ThisRad with @RDJ.tv at @RollerCon.
This tutorial will have you bringing power to your edges! Leah leads us through backwards alternating C-cuts, going deeper into our edges and increasing power as the drill evolves. This drill has 3 levels of progression: (1) alternating C-cuts, (2) adding arms and hips, plus more weight to the pushing foot, and (3) C-cuts on one leg, lifting the supporting leg.
Hope you enjoy! xx
