Chris Conte discusses “3 turn magic” which is a system for developing walk-throughs of all the jumps. In this video, Chris shares important tips by working directly with a skater. The references to “cat and mouse” and “baby bear” will be more clear after future videos.
These drills are outstanding for developing skater alignment, stability and control.

These are exactly the drills I need. I bookmarked the page and will show my coach Vern Taylor these drill, which I desperately need to be doing once I am back on the ice from having to heal my broken left foot in April. That’s right no competing at Adult Canadians this year in Oakville Ontario.
