I'm sitting at the ice rink just chilling watching this video while the Zamboni cleans the ice lol

[@lilyt6457]

Me too!

[@tee7713]

Been there sis

[@TheLarryBrown]

I always have to watch the Zombini the entire time it's on the ice.

[@tasharice2781]

That's me!! I do the same thing.

[@Laurennielsen96]

Same sis

[@marialewis4913]

Thank you. I'm really struggling with this at the moment. I took 2 great falls when attempting this and I really hurt myself, and now very apprehensive trying to succefully execute it!

[@angelinadelBuey1]

oh my goodness, thank you for this, Ive been really struggling with this move.

[@deesterdee6650]

Also, feel yourself turning in the curve of your skate blade. That helps.

[@jimmyfu9496]

You are an amazing instructor, the way you expained and demonstrate it made it much easier for me, thank you

[@IceCoachOnline]

Thanks so much for the kind words. We really appreciate it.

[@cryxannia]

Your videos are always the best, you explain everything in detail clearly and very nice points to make about common mistakes and where the weight should be. Thank you sooo much.

[@yeetpea5302]

Tried doing this today and although I was close, I wasn't consistent. And after watching this, I think my main issue are my arms. 🤣 They definitely weren't in the right positions. So I'll be trying this next week when I go again, and hopefully I'll manage to do it consistently!

[@IceCoachOnline]

Glad to hear you found the video helpful! Let us know how it goes in practice!

[@fatimaisk580]

i was just practising this :) thank you!

[@IceCoachOnline]

You're welcome :) hope the video helps for your next session!

[@tee7713]

Your tutorials are so helpful🥺

[@linda33996able]

Nice explanation!! Really have no idea of this while practicing. Will try!!

[@IceCoachOnline]

Glad to hear you found the video helpful 🙂

[@Braxiatel_]

This was really useful, thank you. My skating teachers told us to turn on the toepick when going forwards and I keep tripping over them. I am going to try this instead next time I'm at my lesson. Thanks :)

[@IceCoachOnline]

Hopefully this advice helps! Let us know how it goes

[@rickr530]

Hopefully 3 years later you're turning on your rocker now and not the toe picks... Or maybe you have fallen enough times to give up skating :(

[@evangelinefan]

Thanks this is really helpful! I fell and broke my elbow trying to learn this. Think curving instead of turning was exactly what i did wrong. I ended up doing something like an ice hockey stop.

[@crisatcris]

Oh wow, this was really well explained. Thank you.

[@IceCoachOnline]

You're welcome, glad you found it easy to understand!

[@deesterdee6650]

I can do this at a slow to semi-moderate speed. But, what is the trick to doing this while going a little fast in speed? I see people skate down the rink then turn to backwards and it impresses me. How do they not spin around while turning going fast?

[@IceCoachOnline]

The more you practice this move, the more comfortable you will get with it. It's about learning how to use your body to not only initiate the rotation but then control it once you've completed the turn! Doing this turn with speed requires control of the arms, hips and also the edges you're skating on. But with practice makes perfect!

[@tonyjones4583]

Practice practice practice

[@TheLarryBrown]

They are probably using a different technique at speed.

[@abigailellaabrahamwong671]

love your vids they are realyyyyyyy helpful to me when I'm stating and when I'm stating I will always think about the best coach is you!!!!

[@IceCoachOnline]

Thank you for the kind words, it's our pleasure to be able to help

[@captaincrunch784]

I forgot to comment a few days ago that I finally did a perfect three turn! The ice "3" carvings lined up Instead of being really far apart. SO PROUD

[@IceCoachOnline]

Great Job! Keep up the good work.

[@yaroslavaslavkina]

Great tut! Can I make it on my rollerblades? Thanks!

[@IceCoachOnline]

Do you have rockered wheels on your rollerblades?

[@yuziqi3287]

Thank you! It was very helpful!

[@IceCoachOnline]

We're happy to hear it helped!

[@tini3563]

this might be a stupid question but on which part of the blade should i turn? also when trying to do a one foot 3 turn it always feels like my edge is too deep into the ice to actually smoothly turn.....

[@IceCoachOnline]

Not a stupid question at all! If you're turning from forward to backward then the weight should be on the ball of the foot. If you're turning from backward to forward, then the weight should go towards the back of the blade. If you feel that you cannot turn smoothly as your edge is too deep into the ice, it's more likely that the issue is your weight is too much toward the middle/back of the blade as you're trying to turn to backward. As you go to turn your 3 turn, try to concentrate on moving your weight on the blade to the ball of your foot. This can be done when skating on very strong deep edges and still produce clean effortless turns. Hope this helps.

[@tini3563]

@@IceCoachOnline thank you so much !!! this is exactly the information i've been looking for and can't wait to try it out on the ice!

[@xladylizzy]

@@IceCoachOnline This is brilliant! Than you.

[@melissamccausland9273]

Very helpful video thank you😊😄

[@IceCoachOnline]

Glad you found it helpful :)

[@wjx5081]

where are you placing your weight in the skates? the balls of your feet or the heels? i'm confused

[@nd7915]

My coach tought me this with the arms going in the same direction as the turn, not the opposite. :O

[@sgyaz2715]

My teacher does not like me so he always criticizes and this move is just so hard for me, thank you for the help and I'll try with this

[@IceCoachOnline]

We're sorry to hear your coach criticises you a lot, but happy to hear the video helped you out! Let us know if it helped you improve

[@melissamccausland9273]

Iam doing this move in my lesson but every time i turn i cant keep my feet together and I cant stay in a straight line do u have any tips on this move?

[@IceCoachOnline]

It sounds like you are trying to use a curve to help you turn. The move is initiated by using the hips. You can try performing the move on the floor where you're not able to use a curve or edges and it might help you with the feeling of using arms and hips

[@abigailellaabrahamwong671]

watch the video how to spin on ice caoch online!!!!!

[@tori3395]

my lessons have us do it on a circle. Is that not right?

[@lilyt6457]

Forwards to backwards 0:00 - 2:27 Backwards to forwards 2:27

[@avab4035]

I am scared of anything involving the heals in skating

[@barbaras3206]

WHERE IS THE DOWN UP DOWN???? the thing I am repeatedly told??? turn into circle hips shoulders aligned, blah blah blah. i tried your way and was told NO NO NO. Im gonn quit it aint worth it
