I like the epic Prince of Egypt soundtrack in the background

She is sending the baby down the Nile 😂

[@Stargeon]

Lmao I tried t-stops and accidentally learned to spin because of that hip turning 😅

[@Nae1ya]

Thank you for this video. I thought we weren't supposed to use the inside edge at all for a T Stop.

[@Kazegamii]

I was always told this too

[@5hr3DDy]

They are both technically correct, just different variations (outside edge T stop vs inside edge T stop). I think a lot of coaches will encourage the outside edge variant more due to it having better stopping power when executed correctly, as well as looking more aesthetically pleasing. The inside version is still pretty useful for a beginner as a useful starting point though.

Figure skaters often say this. Because their goal is to make all the movements pretty and flowing. Dragging a blade behind you is not very pretty and elegant. If you are just skating for fun then it's not an issue. If you can't stop any other way then use it. Better than nothing and running into people. Other figure skaters might cringe at seeing you do it that way, but so what.

Self taught skater. I have been doing the inside edge t- stop and thought i did it wrong. Now i know

[@Blobber.t]

I’m sorry, but how are you making gosport ice rink look so good

Hi, I just recently discovered this amazing channel, and I was just wondering, I’d like to have ice skating as only a cool hobby, do you think I have a chance of teaching myself with the help of your videos? I’d only have winters to practice, but I hope it’s not impossible.. Thank you in advance, you guys are awesome ❤❤

[@Sandall_official]

u know this is legit when the guy got the british accent xD

[@jocelynwithsprinkles]

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to do a T-stop. I naturally Intoe, so it’s already a challenge keeping my feet straight and I use an insole but getting my feet to go in that direction is just physically not able to happen because my ankle can’t turn that far out and stay in place 😢

[@charmainequinn]

T stop to assert dominance over opponent, got it. 🤔

[@ShenJiu]

If i want to learn how to skate then can i use the rent shoes to skate?

[@Busyfigureskating]

It would be wise to get even the cheapest figure skating boot instead because rentals will not give you consistency……bad idea to learn to skate in rentals, in other words. The blades will be badly sharpened and not to mention it will not fit your foot properly like getting your own pair of boots will. It doesn’t need to be too expensive. $100-150 to start. Good luck!

[@Busyfigureskating]

And find a pro figure skating shop in your area if there is one!

I used the lesson skates for a good 6 months before I fully committed to skating and bought my own. Things are going to be a little more difficult, because they're usually incredibly blunt, but it is definitely achievable. Start with them and then move up to some decent intermediate boots when you decide you want to commit to it!
