Great tuts guys, but talking over him to clarify his foreign accented words blocked out the phrase after he said "Do NOT" ....so now i actually don't know what not to do? And did he say go limp? (in so many words) because those weren't falls, they were controlled sliding sit-downs i.e hands first. fall backwards due to gliding and leaning back too far (my own rookie mistake) and show how to counter that please next time, really feel bad for criticising,but i don't think a five min video to say
I'm 47 - I love learning figure skating - I was moving along with 3-turns when I fell and broke my leg : (
I learned to fall much like you show, and it worked for lots of falls. Then I fell with my leg just right and it broke... Now it'll be about a year before I can contiue figure skating...
Thank you! Saturday afternoon open skate, I was doing backward swizzles at speed when I messed up when I knew I was about to fall, I just let go and feel loose, but I also turned as I went down.. Nothing, I was fine after I stopped sliding.. That was the fist hard fall that was nothing to me. : )
thanks for the video, and taking the time to do it.. but honestly i don't find it very helpful..it would been great to get more tips on how to fall, like if you fall to the front, to one side, etc..
some people have it in them that is why i love ice skating and greek state does not promote it at all in other countries it is an essential element to have fun he is fantastic here even his falls are great god i love ice skating!
Yeah i was trying to learn who to do a lot of things with ice skating. I fell so much I brouzed my knees for 3 weeks. If you can could you send me some information on learning how to do simple tricks? Thanks
great video, you make it look so easy!! Hope you had a wonderful new year and holiday season also. I'm catching up on videos lol. Take care xo Liana (friend of bucks ;) )
Yes sometimes you do fall right on your butt. But usually that is from tensing up before the impact of the fall, if you just relax your knees it would be a softer landing.
Most competitive skaters are pros at falling, because it is a learning process. Good luck and have fun!
That was fun!! I like your videos. Also, I am NOT much of a skater. But those are some of MY best moves EVER! The falling down -- I can fall down real good.
Thanks, it was super fun to be on BlogTV. You should definitely try to go skating. We are going to be have a lot more how to's so keep watching and you can learn.
