HOW TO TELL APART THE JUMPS IN FIGURE SKATING

Рет қаралды 857,906

4 жыл бұрын

I get a lot of comments saying that all the jumps in figure skating look the same...and that's true if you don't know what to look for.
This video explains how you can recognize the different types of jumps in skating: what to look for, how the jump is performed, and lots of examples!
Don't be discouraged if they still all look the same even after watching the video, it takes some practice before you can correctly identify the jumps in real time.

I have seen so many videos not caring to explain what is an 'outside/inside edge', 'toe pick' and just throwing common expressions like "right back outside edge" etc as a given. They probably don't realize that even this is very confusing to complete newbies. I really command you for including that bit since It's essential and so many videomakers brush through it and if the viewer isn't able to understand that then the rest falls flat. The video is very clear and take things slow showing first the mechanics of the jumps in slow motion with pointers and only then the videos in real time speed. Possibly the best one on this topic to show complete newbies. You're a jewel! Keep going with the channel!

Man, if only my coach from 1976 could’ve explained edges and the leg positions as well as you. I probably would’ve skated a lot longer. ( not really, I grew from 5ft2in to 5ft7in in less than a year) This is a terrific video!!! 😀😀😀

Very helpful and informative. Knowing these details makes me see (even more than before) how extremely talented these people are.

This is the clearest video of jump explanations that I have ever seen. The details, pacing, and examples were spot on!

I’ve been watching skating for thirty years, and this video is by far the best description of how to tell jumps apart. Thank you!

Thanks, this explains why the brand new quad axel achievement is so amazing. It's 4.5 rotations. Crazy.

A nice comprehensive video. This is the video I must show to my parents so they can finally tell the difference between flip and lutz. Even after 8 years they still don't see the difference. I still would've wished to see more in-depth comparisons of: - the old Salchow and the new. - Loop's free leg. Some people keep it in the outside edge while others tend to keep it on the inside edge. - Axel hands. While usually skaters swing them from down to up some skaters do it sideways. So they stretch their hands up to their sides and when they're about to jump they pull them together.

This video is so amazingly helpful! Thank you so much for all the time and effort I know you must have put into this. I've watched skating for a long time but never bothered to learn how to tell the jumps apart. I decided that ends this week!

This was so informative! I appreciate you slowing down the video and circling what you're referring to (especially the inside and outside edge parts). The indicators for legs crossed versus / \ were also enlightening!

Thank you for such a well explained video. It was exactly what I wanted but I was impressed all the same. You made something so complicated, very clear.

I absolutely enjoyed this video and your explanations! I loved how even terminologies of the mechanics were explained, and it really made me appreciate more the complexities of these jumps. The fact there is multiple ways to attempt a jump, some pretty difficult upon further inspection is incredible! No wonder certain jumps is rarely tried.

Thank you for making this video. I have even more respect for now. This is like watching what not to do to get an ankle injury 101. I can absolutely see how someone could overthink these jumps, which can be dangerous. It can cause too much hesitation, resulting in injury. This is so technical. Bravo to you, video maker!

Alyona Kostornaya already makes triple Axels. You can update your video if you like. Thanks for the nice videomaterial that you prepared for figure skating fans!
