How to Loop Jump on ice! Ice skating

Loop Jump progressions and tip on how to do a loop jump on the ice for ice skaters !
Here are some loop progressions I use when I teach the loop (Rittberger) jump from an inside 3 turn entry, then from a backwards entry. Also addressing common mistakes figure skaters make.
I take no responsibility for any injuries caused - take care and have fun!

Oh, thank you. Ive only been able to get the loop jump from an inside 3 for over a year, and just thought I will never get it from bed c/overs, but this explanation is sooo good, I kinda understand the feeling I should be going for. 👍🏼

the fish hook tip is really helpful

Yes it helps to see the tracing having enough curve, how’s it going?

hi, all of a sudden I'm having a big doubt about sth on the position of the hips to the shoulders : are they both aligned all through the jump from the preparation on backward crossovers? or is there a 1/4 counter rotation shoulders vs hips that helps create the rotation once you release the tension ? at 2min26 for ex it seems that both shoulder line and hips line are parallel (meaning the position is square) and then even through the jump they are square all along..

[@iskatecoach]

Loop jump has to have tension between hips and shoulders. It can be done both ways… some let the shoulders go before the hips, others do it vice versa. I personally think keeping the shoulders checked as you say and letting the hips start the rotation a fraction before the shoulders release is the better way to increase rotational speed.
So yes level shoulders and hips for a single you will be able to get away with. For a double or if you’re struggling to rotate you need more tension between them by releasing one before the other and letting the latter one “catch up”.
Hope that helps 👍🏼

good

Thanks

[@heller501200]

Thank you so much! I try and try but I don't get a proper landing. It seems that I don't get enough rotation. What am I doing wrong?

[@iskatecoach]

Try making sure you’re facing forwards when you jump, usually an u set rotated landing is an under rotated takeoff… if you like I do a video analysis service on my website you can submit a video for feedback 👍🏼 www.iSkateCoach.co.uk
