Purpose: Practice this forward inside bracket on the floor to understand and perfect basic technique. This bracket starts on a forward inside edge and counter-rotates to a backward outside edge on the same circle.
Focus: Basic technique, edge quality, upper body position.

Purpose: Skaters can practice their turns, like this bracket, off the ice to get used to body lean and foot placement on both the backward inside edge to the forward outside edge

Focus: Basic technique, blade use, weight placement, upper body position

Purpose: Working on turns on the floor, such as this forward outside bracket, can be a good way for skaters to gain understanding of the body position and lean needed to maintain the forward outside edge into the backward inside edge without having too much speed. They also can practice the feeli...
