In this video, we're going to focus on the skating skill of jam turns. A jam turn is a tight turn used in close quarters, allowing a skater to exit quickly and gain speed. It’s like doing a swift, sharp turn on your edges and immediately taking off.
We will go through the technique step-by-step. First, leading with the inside foot and maintaining body position. Next, jamming the foot for a one-foot stop, followed by gliding and finally, crossing over to take off in another direction.
We emphasize body control, ensuring that the movement is smooth and controlled. This skill requires practice, but it’s essential for maneuvering in tight areas effectively. Join us to learn and master the technique of jam turns.
