Each jump is assumed to be fully rotated, performed correctly and fairly consistent. The hours are shown in the middle, the skills concerned are shown in the coloured bars.
For a list of the short forms for jumps, click here. Mastering jumps does not progress evenly- one jump every six months. If that were the case, skaters would be doing quintuple jumps before their twenties. Do several knee lifts before you do an axel. Before you do an axel, lift your right knee up in front of you as high as you can.
Repeat this 10 to 15 times to practice the motion. This ensures that you will get the required amount of height and inertia for the jump. Try the jump and spin off of the ice. If you want to get the movement of the jump, spin, and landing down without the risk of falling on the ice, you could try doing axel jumps from standing or running off of the ice. Follow the same body movements and process to do the jump, but do the whole thing while wearing sneakers on a hard surface, such as a hardwood floor or concrete.
For an even safer option in case you fall, try doing axel jumps on grass or carpet flooring. Practice the back scratch spin. Plant 1 toe on a spot on the ice and begin to spin backwards around that central point. To accelerate more, bring your arms in close to your body as if you are hugging yourself. Add a loop at the end of your back scratch spin. A loop is a small jump or hop that you can do to end a spin.
Do waltz jumps. To do a waltz jump, skate forward. As you skate, kick your right leg forward and bring your right knee up. Jump into the air as you bring up your knee, and then land on your left foot. I can rotate one and a half and land on two feet or I can go around once and land on one foot. But I can't rotate enough and land on one foot. What should I do differently? Really push yourself and give it more force on the takeoff. If you can rotate the one and a half landing on two feet, but can't land on one, it's more of a mental problem and you'll need to work on visualizing an accurate landing, both on and off the ice, until you nail it.
Yes No. Not Helpful 3 Helpful How can I overcome the fear of doing an axel? I really want to, but it's hard for me to just go for it. Maybe use a harness to really get the feeling of the jump on the ice. Also, do a lot of axels on the floor. When you jump, try to think just do it, and be sure to put it in perspective -- yes, you may fall but not many times will you fall hard.
Once you try it you will probably think that was easy! Not Helpful 7 Helpful It takes a ton of time to be ready. At your figure skating rink, watch others do it. This definitely helps. Otherwise, just keep trying! It will seem scary and kind of hard, but don't be afraid to fall.
You will do great, just keep at it! Not Helpful 2 Helpful 5. I am currently working on my axel. I have correct posture, but I can only land the one and a half if I turn a little before my take off. I feel I am not jumping high enough. Its base power will increase by 20 with each successive strike, so the first, second, and third strikes have powers of 20, 40, and 60, respectively.
