Purpose: Stepping into an inside edge and then snapping up to a straight leg, while keeping the free leg lifted and the weight over the skating leg, is a good drill to start introducing turns, which bend and then straighten during the turn. This is also a good exercise for skaters to feel the bend and snap into a back spin entry
Focus: Edge quality, free leg lifted, alignment over skating leg, upper body position
