    I'm glad they showed this with people who are already comfortable on the ice. Figure skating is like ballet: It is so intricate and difficult but looks effortless if done correctly.

    • @lillily1014
      @lillily1014 2 ปีที่แล้ว +94

      Yeah. For many people, the scratch spin or one foot spin may look easy, but as a figure skater, they are hard to learn at first. And I’ve had some pretty hard falls with my spirals.

    • @Sopran0livia
      @Sopran0livia 2 ปีที่แล้ว +105

      That actually makes me curious to see the opposite- people who are already comfortable with the difficultly of balance and movement required for figure skating but not comfortable with the ice. Basically I just think it would be interesting to see ballet dancers try figure skating. I’ve been a performer/dancer for years but never on ice but I’ve always been curious about trying it.

    • @milkisspop
      @milkisspop 5 ปีที่แล้ว +259

      Not really? They do the first one all the time for their balance point it's just that they make it even higher. Even the second one skaters would incorporate other aspects and make combination spins.

    • @milkisspop
      @milkisspop 5 ปีที่แล้ว +215

    • @cara315
      @cara315 5 ปีที่แล้ว +145

      A lot of this stuff is just basic stuff you first learn when starting out. The reason you don’t see higher level skaters doing it is because the lower levels do it in competition. However spirals are used all throughout skating in things like moves and programs. I use waltz jumps to warm up for all my jumps. Also, these are learned first because they are the basics that build fundamentals needed throughout the sport as you become more advanced.

    • @cassif19
      @cassif19 5 ปีที่แล้ว +30

      Response to all: "most of these things" does not mean "all of this things" so yes, spirals are used often. The other ones may be the base for other stuff used in competition, but so much is added in order to increase the level that they almost look like different things. That was my point

    This was incredibly funny and awesome. I played hockey for 35-years and when I first started, a slightly older friend who was drafted by the Blackhawks told me to take figure skating lessons for at least a couple of years. He said it would be the best thing I could do regarding skating, especially on my edges etc. So I did, until we had to start jumping, lol... That didn't go so well and the thought of breaking an ankle or landing on my face got the best of me so I stopped the lessons. Funny how hockey players just assume they'll take a puck or stick to the face multiple times but "that's just part of the game", but getting hurt figure skating was out of the question. Yea, mad respect for figure skaters.
    Side note: At one point I was dating a girl that was super into ballet, had taken lessons for a long time, etc, but had never been to a professional ballet. So I bought front row tickets to a couple of big ballet shows for her. I was totally blown away. I remember telling her afterwards, "forget tough hockey players, THESE are real athletes." True story, lol.
    Thanks for the great and funny videos, all were awesome - although I'm a little disappointed in Ivo only popping out a dozen F-Bombs. ;)

      While falling in hockey, football, lacrosse, etc happens its not what the pads are protecting against. Its the other players, the sticks, pucks or ball. A 250lb man flying at you at high speed and slamming you into plexiglass is what the pads help with. Many football players are even larger. A slap shot in hockey can probably kill if not for a helmet. Even with helmets and pads there are many injuries. Its just a different goal for the athletes. Figure skaters, gymnasts, dancers etc, definetly have to worry about falling. They can be high in the air or moving at speed. So for them the ground is the biggest threat. So they need that control and precision to not die. The hockey players, football, etc don't have a fear of the ground as it isnt a threat. The don't need control and precision to not get hurt, they need it to play the game. Control the puck, throw or shoot the ball or puck, catch a throw. All are amazing athletes they all just focus on different aspects. Which makes sense considering they all do different sports or activities.

I was like, what are you talking about, I dance 7 days a week, I just can't catch a ball, why don't you go have those soccer players try yoga or ballet. His reply... that doesn't count at all, dance isn't a real sport and yoga is just stretching.. like a little warm up. My response, 🤬.

    For those of you saying Ivo is being nervous because he's the only dude hold on a sec. I think it's more about how he thinks. He wanted to look and observe the spin first before he tries it which is something I personally do as I am more visual. He's not confident in himself and people display a lack of confidence differently. Some people go right in and try and others are a little weary and want to test the water. It doesn't have to do with he's the only dude.

      costco freezer I’m a former figure skater. The truth is, the ice itself almost does a lot of the skating for you, when in contact with the metal blades. A lot of figure skating is just learning to control natural forces, like the centrifugal force when spinning on the ice and in rotational jumps. If centrifugal force goes uncontrolled, you typically fall. When learning to lean into “edges,” you’re also controlling the momentum and force. It’s actually quite interesting when you really analyze it. 😊 And the exhilaration and freedom you feel when gliding fast or jumping can be addictive.
