I'm guessing my technique is similar to hers. Itd be nice a follow up video where she learns the corrections live from you, maybe off skates, and then a third video having a side by side to see progress. I may be asking too much to you and to her ha. Thanks anyways!
I love your analysis of the skaters that you have done Pascal. Would you be able to do a similar analysis of one or more skaters doing turns on the track? My technique on track is very bad and it would be helpful if I could understand where the body should be, how to underpush, etc. Thanks heaps
I switched from recreational skates to 3x125 a few months back and started working on my technique. Your videos help a lot! Do you have any tips on training lower back/ upper hip strength? I tend to get tired/sore when I skate in a low position for only a few minutes already
She rises at the hip and releases the compression on the under-push very early. I do the same and have been trying to keep my hips down more and not swing my shoulders too early or too far to compensate. Do you have any exercises you would recommend to improve the outside edge angle in this moment? Terrific analysis as always thank you Pascal.
maybe it's the angle of the camera but it seems like she has a similar situation as Felix Rhijnen where the left foot lands pretty flat but the right foot lands with the back wheel and they have a bit more under push on the left and very little under push on the right. I also have much more trouble with the technique on my right foot than my left. Also I've been working on the side to side shoulder movement recently and it looks to me like the timing of her shoulder movement is a bit off (I think this is what you were saying about the upper body in this video), as in the shoulders move to the side too soon so she doesn't lead with her hip as much as she could be.
Yes it commun to have more problem on the right leg because the left leg is used to do an inside push when we are in corner and we mainly turn left ... but as we don’t work so much the right turn it’s kind of harder to accept the under push from the right leg
Je pense aussi qu'il n'est pas facile d'aller se tordre la cheville sur un beau carre externe avec les hormone qui nous rendent plus laxes. Du coup il y a compensation avec autre chose comme le haut du corps. Il y a aussi possiblement le bassin plus large (plus ouvert) qui peut jouer sur l'alignement du fémur avec l'articulation de la hanche, avant de pouvoir basculer le bassin correctement il y a ce moment ou l'on doit d'abord rééquilibrer bassin/fémur ensemble. Dans tous les cas tout cela est relativement bloqué par cet angle de la cheville. Vidéo tres intéressante merci, je ne suis pas contre plus d'analyse du patinage au féminin ;)
@@ThePascalbriand Thank you Pascal. I'm really enjoying your videos. I'm brand new to the sport, got my first skates (Luigino's) yesterday. But I'm also discovering that living in Boston USA there's very little competitive Outdoor skating outside of NYC. The sport of outdoor racing is very undeveloped here in the US, I'm surprised.
@@tedhorwitz430 hi ted, yes USA outdoor practice is not that big anymore but still you will meet fantastic people im sure. USA had the best inline speed skater outdoor some years ago. Probably , in indoor you can get great coach around there to and it will help a lot for outdoor skills too.
The outside edge is too shallow and too late. Neither glutes or quads will be utilized standing more or less in a straight position. This is merely weight transfer in my humble opinion.
