Level: Advanced Base exercise: Entry to air position arm walk through Variation: Resistance band in landing side arm. Purpose: This exercise helps skaters practice using their arms with proper alignment, timing, and strength in their jumps. The resistance band in the rotation side or forward arm...

Base exercise: Entry to air position arm walk through
Variation: Resistance band in landing side arm.
Purpose: This exercise helps skaters practice using their arms with proper alignment, timing, and strength in their jumps. The resistance band in the landing side arm helps ska...

Level: Foundation Base exercise: Hip twist + rotation. Variation: Resistance band stretched between both hands, checked on skating side. Body alignment focus: Arms and shoulder position before take-off of a jump. Purpose: The resistance band helps skaters keep a strong check over the landing sid...

Purpose: Doing a backward hop landing position challenges skaters to maintain good alignment and position after landing. Skaters should keep their upper body tall and free leg stretched behind, with the arms slightly counterchecked over the landing leg

Focus: Alignment, upper body position, arm ...

Level: Foundation Base exercise: Checked H position to stretched landing position Variation: Purpose: This drill helps skaters work on keeping their bodies checked over the landing side while on a backwards outside edge before moving into a stretched landing position. Helps with these common mist...

Level: Foundation
Base exercise: Checked (H position) to stretched landing position
Variation: On a straight line Purpose: Doing this exercise on a straight line is easier than on a backwards outside edge, so this drill helps skaters build control moving from the checked to stretched phase of a...

Level: Foundation
Jump Phase: Landing
Base exercise: Air position to trapped then stretched landing position.
Variation: Axel leg air position hops then transfer to landing leg.
Purpose: Helps skaters practice building and improving muscle memory from in air position to a trapped then stretche...

Level: Advanced
Base exercise: Axel step over
Variations: Backwards landing hop in trap position to stretched landing position
Jump phases: Entry, take off, follow through, landing
Purpose: Trains a quick and tight weight transfer from take-off foot to landing leg in the axel, trains stabilit...

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...

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

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...

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.
