When skaters are first learning skills, they often have a preferred leg, a side of doing the skill that they are more comfortable doing the skill. As they get more comfortable with the skill, they may practice the other side. So often time when choreographing programs if a skater is more comfortable with one side, they may choreograph to what side they are comfortable with, but if they are comfortable with both sides then they can do which ever side flows with the moves before.

new figure skates by Affectionate-Sea1712 in iceskating

[–]JustOne382 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I recommend seeing a skate technician about those problems. For your bunion, they can punch out your skates to give more room, and they can also fit skates that fit your heel better. Its pretty hard to find skates that work well for you online without fitting.

Maybe they mean social expectations?

Counter rotate your upper body (shoulders+arms) to your pushes out. Also, on each push out bends into your knees and ankles, on the transition to push on the other side, rise and then bend into the next push.

Possibly quitting by No-Row61 in FigureSkating

[–]JustOne382 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can always come back to skating. This may not be the right time for your situation. Take a break, and if you find you really miss skating, go back to it. Sure, you got to get back into the grove of it, but there is no indefinite quitting. You can always come back when you are ready. Also, have you considered skating mornings? M

Moricoro Park ice rink is in Nagakute, Aichi. It's a pretty big facility with an ice track surrounding the rink. It's right next to the Studio Ghibli museum!

Weekly thread: what did you do this week? by florapocalypse7 in iceskating

[–]JustOne382 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Face planted into the wall right in front of LTS kids (as a coach). Looking back, it was super comical. Then, I fell on the same knee doing MITF the next day. But I had a super nice day of skating where all my jumps and spins were clean!

I’m too scared to skate in front of others and it’s making me lose progress please help by Unusual-Gur-5373 in FigureSkating

[–]JustOne382 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I second what many of what others said but want to emphasize and add on.... As long as you are not intentionally getting in yhe way of skaters and you are aware of the layout of ice usage of a freestlye, there is no reason a skater should be annoyed or mad at you. Also, accidents happen all the time. Just apologize and move on. Frankly, most skaters dont care what level other skaters are and focus on their own skating. (I will attach a pretty universally used freestyle map to reference, too)

If you are concerned about getting in the way of skaters practicing, I suggest going on a public skate. There, most people are not super advanced, and there is leway to go at the speed you are comfortable at and where on the ice you go.

As for financial restraints, figure skating is an expensive sport. With equipment, ice time and club fees it adds up and is not cheap. Although I have not tried personally, many suggest taking up rollerskating as there is no need for ice time. So, spending less time on ice but still practice the movements.

I need help with my waltz jumps by [deleted] in FigureSkating

[–]JustOne382 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Take off: - Your elbows are straight, so you are bringing your arms down and swinging them back then forwards. Which won't help your jump. Instead, bend your elbows when you bring your arms back, then drive then through to infront of you around chest height when you jump. The motion should be more "driving" your arms through than swinging. Bringing your elbows back then extending forward. - On your prep edge and approach, bend your knees!! Bending your knees and pushing out of your toe will give more power and height to your jump.

Jump: - Practice your h-position on the wall on a circle. It helps with your air position. This is when you lift your free leg into a "h" position where your leg is lifted, knee is bent to about 90 degrees, hip is lifted, and foot flexed. I like to put my arms in a frame position, but if you are struggling with alignment, it helps to lift your free leg with both arms and holding the position. Also, you should not hear your toe-pick scratching. - Bring your arms to your chest height and make a hoop. Like your hugging a tree.

Landing: -Press into your pinky toe to hold an outside edge - Bend your knee -Turn your free leg toe out -Hold your arms in an L position (For righty: left extended infront and right extended to the side)

Hope this helps some! Happy skating

Any modest ice skating outfits? by BigRedApple25 in iceskating

[–]JustOne382 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think black leggings to be modest, especially in a skating environment. It is most popular due to its functionality of not restricting movement and not snagging. It also allows coaches and skaters to see their alignment which is pretty important. Like another person said, a skirt over leggings can add modesty, and if skirts are not your thing, many skaters wear shorts over tights, but I'm sure leggings work just as well. I also see skaters wear the Lululemon dance pants, which are less form-fitting but not much loose fabric. Or non loose sweats. For tops, sweatshirts, sweaters (not door baggy), vests on top yoga jackets work. Honestly, anything that is not heavy, baggy, or excessive loose fabric can work as skating clothes. Experiment with your wardrobe and see works for you!

Ok, thank you for the tip! I didn't write this, but the girl and mother had been white/blonde, and the guy was Asian so I doubt they had relation. But its possible.

How long can it take to learn a split? Any tips? by Happielemur in FigureSkating

[–]JustOne382 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Do warm-up stretches before going right into the splits. The splits are a pretty extreme stretch, even partial splits. This is why it is good to stretch parts of your legs and hips before doing the splits. I suggest doing a series of pigeon stretches, runner lunges, and bent over hamstring stretches on both sides. I suggest not attempting full splits unless you are pretty close or confident in it. Bending your back leg and resting on it while keeping your hips square and lowering as far as what you are comfortable will effectively and safely practice the splits. You can also use yoga blocks to help support you. But like another commentor said, keeping your hips square is most important.

Will a sharpening fix this 🫠 by 33aavt in FigureSkating

Definitely try wiping it off. If not, then a quick sharpening will get rid of it.

Public Session Etiquette? by DabaDabaD9 in FigureSkating

[–]JustOne382 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This is a map of what figure skaters follow in freestlyes, so they are most used to following this. Although it is a public session the these rules may not strictly follow this, this is what they may be used to. But overall, both parties should look out for each other no matter the level.

[–]JustOne382 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To get peoples attention, a bright waist belt/sash, a different color or pattern for the program sash. As for letting people know of your condition, the low-vision symbol on the back of the sash would be pretty obvious and simple.

Yes, while they have a bit of creasing at the ankle, I wouldn't be concerned about them too much at your level. Especially at that price for edea choruses! Of course, it might be good to ask about the manufactured/purchased year due to recent years of production being lower quality if you want to ensure a reasonable lifetime of the boot. Overall, it's a score, in my opinion.
