This solved one of my worries with brackets. Namely that half of mine were actually 3-turns. Got to polish my technical eye more and probably lower that speed. Thanks for the amazing insights, gold as usual!

Thank you for your videos. One thing remains a mistery to me, it is how to hold the curve without ending doing a backcrossover. The position at the end is not unusual but I feel like my hips are stuck. Is it a lack of balance, hips mobility, do you have any clue 😅?
@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater Күн бұрын
Difficult to tell for sure without seeing, but I assume that is a forward inside bracket, and you continue to rotate after the turn, so you have to step onto a back crossover. We control rotation while gliding on an edge by increasing the lean to turn against the curve and by decreasing the lean to turn in the direction of the curve. Try to keep the back edge on the second side of the turn the same depth as the forward. The curvature will become more curvy because of friction and loss of speed.
@skatechi 5 күн бұрын
Thank you! This is incredibly timely, we just started learning forward outside brackets in class today. I can't wait to try maintaining the lean and pointing my toe at my next practice, I felt very stuck on the turn and think these tips will help.
@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater 4 күн бұрын
Great, skatechi! All the best! Do be careful because proper brackets are not only much more difficult, but more dangerous. It is easier to catch an edge. Start with very little speed and then add speed gradually as you practice and build skills.

Can you please show more of the good old school figure technique? I often heard that people who did figures have better skating skills and I believe this is true.
@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater 4 күн бұрын
This is basically old school figure technique presented in this video. It was quite exacting because judges looked at tracings on the ice for evidence of changes of edge.

does going slow make a fall worse?
@katesmith8005 5 күн бұрын
I think that it depends on what you do on the ice. I find that speed helps in some figures. But some moves require less speed. And the fall hurts every time.
@johntousseau9380 4 күн бұрын
Depends on how you fall. My worst fall was going slow. Almost broke my wrist. Once I fell with speed. It wasn't bad except I didn't stop moving and crashed into the wall which hurt.
@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater 4 күн бұрын
More speed normally makes falls worse. At low speed falls can be bad if they are unexpected. I caught an edge on a slow rocker recently and fell straight back and hit my head. Predictability seems to be a better measure of the extent of trauma. When we fall unexpectedly on easy moves, we are not as mentally prepared to mitigate damage.
@katesmith8005 5 күн бұрын
I am a beginner skater and I struggle with my 3- turns so brackets are a thing of the future for me. But what I learnt from this video for my personal use is this moment of jump action. In order to turn I need to take off the weight from my skating leg. And that is the most important part for me. Thank You. 😊

@jrg305 7 күн бұрын
Yes. You have to want to jump. Can't half jump. Goes for a lot of Sports. If the gymnast bails on the middle of the flip, you under rotate and don't land on your feet. An athlete needs to know him or her self and identify the fear and do a lot of visualization practice.
@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater 5 күн бұрын
Glad you got it. Thinking things over does help allay some of the fear. Many people cite benefits to visualisation. I have never used it. An Earthbound mentality is an impediment to catching some serious air. Lack of muscular power is another.

Yes. Just like a walley or toe walley off an inside edge but turning counter to the curve of the edge. How did the Lutz survive to this day, but not the toe walley? Unfortunately, it is verging on extinction.

I think in terms of leg alignment, the three points (ankle, knee, hip) will always form a plane, but the plane of each leg should fully enclose the vector of travel which could could be defined as the normal vector extending from the belly button.
@mechez774 27 күн бұрын
We could use the word parallel. It seems like these exercises would require good core control

Hi again Mechez, and thanks for your continued interest. I am not sure how a plane can enclose. Please clarify.
@mechez774 11 күн бұрын
Ok, yea, I don't think that vector would lie/be enclosed in the plane but be parallel to the two planes formed by each leg. Just mis-spoke. Still haven't had the time to practice the exercises from this video , and I see you've released a few more. Looking forward to it though! Thanks again for all the shared wisdom

Supination typically occurs on the take-off action rather than on the pivot prep.

I am an adult in US who has been learning ice skating for a few months. Although jump, spin and some other moves are harder, up to this point I find my eye/brain lights up when I see advanced skaters do two things: back crossover and a "casual" mohawk turn. I hope to skate like them someday. Here is my attempted understanding of back crossover. Stage 1: at the very beginner level like ISI (ice skating industry) beta, we are taught to lift outside leg over and cross. Stage 2: a more advanced version advocates that leaving the outside foot on ice all the time, probably called "cut back" or under cut. Stage 3: watching Gary here and some other Olympic male and female staters, they actually slightly have their outside blade off the ice during crossing. That blade has a slight angle to the floor with toe a little higher than the heel. Maybe stage 3 is indeed better and more correct than stage 2. Or maybe the stage 2 way is OK in slow speed and shallow curve, while stage 3 is more appropriate in high speed and tighter curve? I don't know. I think I am still practicing in stage 2.
@zeborahnz Ай бұрын
I think the "stage 2" version is what is used most often to gain speed especially in preparation for a jump, because it's very powerful since both blades are pulling/pushing at once. But "stage 3" may be more appropriate for a footwork sequence or somewhere else where you're trying to get your programme component scores up. Then there's also the version where instead of stepping across in front of your shin, you step across behind your calf - that's especially used in crossrolls. I can do forward crossrolls, but have only attempted backwards crossrolls with a hand on the wall and was mostly pulling myself along at that! 🤣 What I love about skating is there's always more to learn!
@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater Ай бұрын
The kanji for the thumbnail is "kataashi", a word for which there is no direct English equivalent. It means "on one foot", and it is one of the defining aspects of figure skating. Figures were all performed on one foot at a time and on curves with no straight lines. Acceleration is valued by judges as a skating skill, and one-foot skating is also supposed to be a factor in assessing skating skills. Ultimately we want to figure skate on one foot at a time as much as possible. Maximum acceleration can also be achieved on one foot at a time in my experience and opinion. We want to learn in stages, as you suggest here, and as I teach in this video, but these two-foot exercises are just a means to an end.

Interesting! I never knew about this ball and ring tool. My question is related but kind of reversed punch-out - I got a pair of used skated that were punched out in the ankle area. Is there a way to punch it back or otherwise restore to its original shape?
@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater Ай бұрын
There is a new one for me, SC. I have no experience or knowledge of this. When you punch out, you are basically stretching the material. Whether you can un-stretch it by using this tool inside out, or with some other tool, I don't know.

Fun fact: speed skating blades don't have any hollow. So when the blades are straight up, they could slip. And the stroke is directly to the side once you get going. I am speaking here of long track speed skates. I am not a speed skater but I did rent a pair of long track skates once just to try them out. The blades were as long as windshield wipers, I think 17 inches. I couldn't get a crossover going in my one session...so the turns went slowly...Eric Heiden I am not! Gary, thanks for your expert advice. I am going to speak to my sharpener...🙂
@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater Ай бұрын
Hi John, speed skates are a good example of what I am suggesting in this video. There is enough grip on deep edges that are used to accelerate at the start of a race or to go around the curve at the end of the rink, but the right angles for edges are ideal for minimising friction. You can also share the link to this video with your skate sharpener.

@@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater Hi Gary. I would indeed like him to see this. BTW love your skating, and saw you in person in Hartford, CT, back in the day. Something about hand skates...hmm...ring a bell? Maybe we need MORE edges! 4 more, or is it 8? How do you sharpen them hand skates? Do hand skates dream of having feet in them? People are way too set in their ways and afraid to try fun stuff. Not you. Skate on! And thank you for being you.
