Thank you so much for sharing this. I feel so demotivated when people say you can't learn figure skating after puberty. You have to start at 4 or 7. This makes me think that I still have a chance. Thanks💜
@@jodireeve7701 I am sorry about that, I know what it's like to have the rink closed down. But there is hope for me then, you started out quite late as wel, and you are doing absolutely great!
I started my axel in late 2019. I landed it in 2020. Lost it, and this went on till 2022. In 2022 I woke up on day landed them all consistently. Lost it the week after, and got it back the week after that. To this day they are still consistent and landed nicely. My axel journey took me 3 years. I still don’t hold my entrance as long as I could. That’s why I love figure skating. There’s always something to work towards, even when something (my axel) seems perfect, there’s always a way to improve it. I love seeing these journey videos. Great job! (Lol I’m working on my double salchow. I can’t land backwards on one foot up on my toe pick :( lol)
I love seeing this! I skated for 10 years when I was young (landed up to double lutz, but that one just once, but I was consistently landing double flips and less difficult jumps) and also took some lessons in my late 20’s and got up to working on the axel again. I’m considering taking lessons again now that I’m back home where I used to skate, and I’m 42 now! It’s never too late to learn how to skate and such a joy. Mostly I just want to get back in shape and want the lessons to make sure I don’t hurt myself. I can still land up to a single slip but I’d be terrified to do a lutz or axel at this point! Keep it up!
So great to see. I started learning to ice skate at 34 years old so I could play hockey. Now that I've been playing hockey for a year I've started freestyling on my hockey skates. It's the greatest hobby. Great exercise, huge skill tree to master, super impressive looking. I was checking out your video because I'm just starting to work on doing an axle in hockey skates. Keep it up.
Wow! You have some very nice technique! I am only 12, I landed my axel a few years ago and all I can say is that you have some good technique! Keep working at it! A little more practice and you’ll have some amazing jumps!
Thank you for the video. I felt like I could never jump on ice again (I used to skate 15 years ago I completely lost my skills) but watching you encourages me.
I am an 11 year old figure skater and I am currently working on my DOUBLE axel lol. I have a tip: jump higher. You are trying to rotate before you even jump and that is causing to much tork and not enough height. You will need about a foot more of height if u want the double axel so keep working! I believe in you!
Thanks for the advice! As much as I'd like a 2A one day I don't think thats achievable at my age and health haha. I will definitely try to improve the height on my jumps though! Good luck with getting your double axel, I'm sure you'll get it in no time!
Well done and good girl. Keep at the jumps, they get frustrating because you fall over quite a bit to start with. Wait until you get to the double axel 🙄😉
I’m coming out from my break soon and despite me being way to low of a level for this it seems a lot easier when you do it, so I’m gonna try it! (By low level I mean I’m only fs1)
Congrats, you have courage. I figured skated a lot in my teens through my 30's and became pretty proficient without ever taking lessons, but never learned to jump much because I attended public sessions and at that time it was prohibited to jump since you could hurt other skaters. You are doing good, getting up your courage and practicing on land to strengthen your legs and let you jump higher which will allow you to complete the revolution. Then for a double!!
may i ask how i should approach learning ice skates by myself? I can do basic stuff like moving forward but i don't know how to start skating backward, crossovers, etc
A couple months i think, but I didn't really practice them or the excerises much. My coach at the time was very demotivating and kept telling me I'd never be able to do it so we didnt have many lessons on it. I switched coaches a couple months after lockdown and landed my axel within a few weeks! Axels are really scary when you first start them, but after youve fallen enough times on them you forget to be scared 😂 try padding up if you're really scared of hurting yourself!Good luck!
What do you think is the brand and model of skate that can make an artistic axel? I live in Turkey and everything has a very high price here!That's why it's hard to buy here, but I have a medium budget. Which skate do you think can do moves like axels?
I landed my axel in edea chorus boots, but I'm not sure on other brands as I've only worn edeas! Your best bet is to find a fitter that can tell you the best boot for you as it will depend on your foot shape/age/skill etc!
double jumplara kadar jackson falan idare ediyor fakat triple, double jumplar için edea şart fakat bu senin hedefine bağlı tabi çünkü edea fiyatları uçmuş durumda :(
Padding always helps! I have knee problems so I was always scared of falling and hurting a knee, but after I bought some pads I was a lot more confident! I would also say to not just go for the jump straight away (this was my mistake!). Definitely build up jumps like the Axel in parts - i.e. waltz-backspin, bell jumps etc. Not only does it help with technique but it helps mentally too!
@@jodireeve7701 I went ice skating for the first time in a few years yesterday and I was surprisingly good at it. I got my own skates and I will be starting lessons in about a month. It’s an adult class for ages 15 and up and I’m really excited. For now I can practice every weekend on Saturday or whenever I get the chance to.
Here I have edea chorus with coronation blades, but after this vid I upgraded my boots to edea ice fly (had a freak accident with my chorus which caused the tongue to snap off!)

Its never too late to learn! Dont give up!😊
@@jodireeve7701 when did you start out? I am curious because I only started a year ago(25 now), but because of corona I could barely skate.
@@fiona2075 I started at 22 so 3 years ago. However I've only been skating two years because the pandemic closed my rink for over a year!

Yeah it really is the best hobby! Wow, an axel on hockey skates would be impressive! Good luck in learning it!
wow on HOCKEY SKATES! i saw an figurskating olympian trying it on hockey skated they cant even do it. THats really cool that you can do that.
Thankyou fro sharing your journey, i felt demotivated with my own journey lately 🥰 and your video makes me want to work on mine even harder now!!!

Good luck with your axel!
@@jodireeve7701 Thank you! ☺️

Go for it! If I can do it anyone can!
You are so cool for being so consistent
Great job! Interesting video, & good music choice.

whitley bay ice rink! missed that place. i used to skate with coach alan
Alan was my old coach 😊
@@jodireeve7701 small world, i used to be there during 2015-16 before i returned to hong kong. alan probably dont remember me now.
Wow. Great work! Now I think it’s time for a triple.
Haha thanks! And maybe in my dreams 😂😂

Thanks very much! I've landed a couple doubles but not consistent yet. Well done teaching yourself! I don't think I'd manage without a coach!
may i ask how i should approach learning ice skates by myself? I can do basic stuff like moving forward but i don't know how to start skating backward, crossovers, etc
Great effort! Just focus more on correcting the cheat on the entrance --- an axel takes off forward not backward.
How long were you working on them before lockdown? I just started axels and they’re so terrifying lol 😵💫

@@jodireeve7701 thank you so much! 💕 I fell over the other day and it actually helped because I realised it wasn't that scary 😂
@Caitlin Beesley haha yeah that happened to me too 😂 after the first few falls you realise falling isnt actually that scary!
I'm 16 and starting figure skating tomorrow my dream is to reach level A2 one day
Good luck! I'm sure you can do it!
I’m thinking about getting started in figure skating at the age of 15 just for fun because figure skating is fun
Its very fun! Go for it!

How long have u been ice skating before u landed ur axel?
2 years!
At 1:55, you synced with the lady in the back.
I just landed my axel at 10yrs old:):):):):)😊
what kind of boots and blades are u using ?
Here I have edea chorus with coronation blades, but after this vid I upgraded my boots to edea ice fly (had a freak accident with my chorus which caused the tongue to snap off!)
you should get some speed into the 2axel
You aren’t crossing your feet?
My air position is something me and my coach are constantly working on. It's better these days (though far from perfect!)
You are not checking out with your left arm/shoulder in front. Thus the landings are not secure.

How is yours coming? Maybe you can pot for us.
