but sometimes u fall right on ur butt and the impact on ur back is really bad, what r u meant to do then????? to stop urself from gettin that hit?

real fur, oh no :O

the falls seem kinda controlled. its like hes a professional faller :P

[OlympianUncut]

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!

[KoolJeffrey]

Lol. Looks like a lot of fun. You make it look easy, wish I would have seen this before I went ice skating. haha.

[OlympianUncut]

It's never too late to try again

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

[Zemfira25]

Aside from the real fur that really bugged me, this was an awesome video!! I sure wish you could make more instructional videos, you two rock!!

[daveguy3]

I needed to learn how to fall on a skateboard but this actually helped

[ECWnWWF]

did she say "his husband?" .... he must be a fudge packer

[virad28]

press 6 over and over its trippy

[DarkAngelUK1985]

what if you fall forwards?

[purplestatical]

he looked like he enjoyed the falling more than the skating...just saying.

[cyclenut]

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...

[happyking9]

I don't need a How-To video teaching me to fall when ice skating,

unfortunately i'm already an expert at that

[LaylaG1998]

well I broke my wrist skating because of how I landed.
