  • @lilbitch90 people will be less afraid if they wear helmets, and they need to understand that falling is a part of every sport and will happen sooner or later. If they don't want to fall then they should stop playing the sport

  • You're so much better than my real coach who doesn't pay the slightest attention to me. Thank you so much! I'm excited for practice now!

  • Okay, when you guys are learning crossovers, its better/easier to do a pump, instead of 'pushing off'.

  • i had my first lesson today and i think we are doing crossovers in a few weeks :) i am confident at skating and i have good balance because i did gymnastics for about 9 years .. :)

  • i wish you would have gone over the edges. that would have broken it down and shown that you go push-outside edge(on your inside foot)-cross (outside over inside)-inside edge (when putting your foot back on the ice after lifting)-push off (with outside edge) If it would have been explained in the video it would have made it easier for people who are just learning crossovers to understand.

  • ohhhhhh, thats how you do it, my friends were trying to teach me this but i fail. but thanks, now i know the proper way do this. my friends show me and tell me where my feet should go where. now ill find out tomorrow when i go ice skating :)

  • @Abstir010

    then WHY are you watching this? get a life. No one probably cares that you could do that in real life so you come here to find solace? loser

  • ok forget the "Advanced " part thats what this series is called..so big deal..get over it.. ...watch his feet and listen to what he is telling you..He's a great coach... and some of you could learn alot from him...

  • Drop your pinkies(:
