When I try this skill I stop rather then make the turn. Perhaps you could point out certain symptoms when you do it wrong, so people can recognise them and focus more on doing it right.

Always great movies, thanks for all the skill video's !

@McSnuckles if you're sliding while performing the turn, chances are you've got the weight more toward the middle of your skate blade than the heel. It's also possible your stance is too wide, which tends to also cause the weight on your skates to shift toward the ball of your feet instead of the heel. Hope this helps!

when every i try this i almost get it but then instead of turning i vomit. what am i doing wrong?

Fantastic tips! Thanks for the great video! I find outside edges are one of the hardest skating skills to master. I usually end up lifting my inside skate off the ice and just turning on my outside foot, inside edge. Any tips for getting used to working that outside edge on the inside skate?

@mdoherty8 you're vomiting which is wrong. Try not vomiting.

he does a half stop on 3/4 last turns. too much weight initiated the turn slowed him down.

So say your going full speed as fast as you can go and have to do a tight turn... when I try and do this I usually loose my edge? any tips for going really fast and doing tight turns?

Your videos are really informative. I just wish you'd drop the background music.

When I try to tight turn I don't know whether my wight should be on my inside foot or outside foot. I end up turning too slowly.
