Purpose: This video teaches skaters the basics of twist jumps to help with their stationary rotation skills. Hip twists are essential for skaters to build quick twitch muscles rotating from the hips first rather than the upper body while keeping the head stable.

Focus: Basic technique, upper bod...

Purpose: This drill helps skaters work on a quick snap into their air position on a loop take-off, vertical height on the take-off, rotation, and control of landings so that they can do it continuously.
Focus: Loop take-off, Vertical height, tight air position, upper body control, jump combinations

Purpose: This drill helps skaters work on a quick snap into their air position on a loop take-off, vertical height on the take-off, rotation, and control of landings so that they can do it continuously.
Focus: vertical height, tight air position, upper body control, jump combinations

Purpose: This drill helps skaters work on a quick snap into their air position on a loop take-off, vertical height on the take-off, rotation, and control of landings so that they can do it continuously.
Focus: vertical height, tight air position, upper body control, jump combinations

Purpose: This drill helps skaters build muscle memory for body positioning in a loop take-off into air position as well as from air position into jump landings
Focus: Axis, alignment, tight air position, take-off hip flexion, landing hip flexion, triple extension

Level: Foundation
Exercise: Single leg stationary: Loop take-off lockdown & 1/4 turns
Purpose: This drill helps skaters work on a quick snap into their air position on a loop take-off, vertical height on the take-off, rotation, and control of landings so that they can do it continuously.
Focus:...

Level: Foundation
Base exercise: Single leg stationary loop take-off
Variation: Lockdown, hip twist
Purpose: Skaters can improve their quick twitch firing on their jump take-offs by doing hip twists. This helps the skater learn how to generate vertical height and then rotation through their hips...

Level: Foundation
Base exercise: Stationary loop lockdown
Variation: Continuous
Purpose: This drill makes skaters work on straight vertical height without rotation, and snapping into a tight air position. By doing these exercises continuously, skaters need to have a good axis and alignment over t...
