The Incredible Edger! If there is a better sharpening machine out there, I am yet to come upon it. Here is my encomium to centenarian Sidney Broadbent for his contribution to "Skateology", the study of skating and equipment. Thank you Sid, condolences to the large community of family and friends nearest to you, and farewell!

Here are the positions and mechanisms you can practice to learn or to polish up your flip jump, regardless of the number of rotations. This video is for skaters of all levels from single to quintuple. Learn to learn without having to unlearn, relearn, or not learn at all because of pain and injury downtime from inferior technique.
HAPHAZARD

Scribble-skate is as unsightly as this thumbnail, and difficult to understand fully. Sorry about the Spantalian, Pattinatori. Or did I get that wrong, too? 3 T's to pronounce. And plural for a haphazard assortment of ice gliders ends in "i", vero? :(PS. Apology for haphazard double "z" haphazard spelling. Artistic licence is valid excuse? Or still necessary to strive incessantly for godly perfe...

An example of how to sharpen skating blades, correcting sloppy levelness from the previous sharpening. Go ahead and share this video, together with my other sharpening videos in the GARY MOVES channel, with your skate sharpener. Most sharpeners frankly lack the patience and savvy to get this right.

SHINJUKU SHOW-OFF

The Tokyo Weekender described these Shinjuku Niagara Falls as "generously named", and you can decide if this performance is generously posted. I show quite the repertoire of tricks, no? Unfortunately, I do not have rights for the original music. Thus, the overlay. But editor Kojiro does a good job matching the tempo with music by Kei Morimoto.

Thanks for your remembrances of a wonderful man. Sincere condolences to his family and friends.
I didnt know Sid, or even of him until this video, virtual hugs for you and condolences to his family. For me skating isnt just time on ice, Im interested in the whole story, you tell that story well. I have been looking at machines for some time, i do not like being reliant on other peoples skills, Sid sounds like a real good guy and it is obvious you have respect for him. The realisation of mortality hits hard as friends and family leave us, it is more than obvous to me your hurting a bit today with your lovely tribute to someone you had a conection with. Take care Garry and know even though i dont know you , my thoughts are with you. RIP Sid.
❤
Hola Gary ese traje negro te queda maravilloso. Y tus clases se patinaje son geniales. Bonito fin de semana 🎉
Well, I just came of the ice, thank you so much, I made so much progress today, concentrating on loooong edges on all eight edges made me work harder than a session with my old coach, no doubt after a few hrs mingling this exersise into my usual practice made a big difference. There is hope for this old dog yet. Ty Btw, tour 1988 otowa performance in yellow.shirt, off the scale!!
Congrats and thanks, Paul.
I just found this vid as I parked up at the rink, Ty as always and I'm off to use your advice in my warmup in about 5 mins.
Do you have any tips on split jumps or split flips? I used to do gymnastics so i’ve always split with my right leg forward, and still to this day I can’t get used to leading with my left leg while moving backwards like that.
The technique is the same as for flip take-off, except height is even more important for split flip to allow time to attain a full split position before rotating to a landing position. Get plenty of speed, bend, and reach, and rely on automatic rotation from the edge only. Perhaps I will fit in a video on split jumps. I used to pride myself on my Russian split jump landing in a back lunge, but have let split jumps slip out of my repertoire.
@@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater Learning a russian split is one of my goals but doing it into a lunge sounds incredible! Thanks for the tips 👌🏻
his footwork, precision, speed, and originality of aforementioned is impeccable.
This has been really helpful..thank you!
I HAD no want to jump, now I do, inspiring as always, Ty Garry, that was the best tutorial you've ever done by a mile, your so much better at explaining the finer detail than coach J**** there are so many young people that could learn so much from you.. I will be recommending your channel to a couple of young skaters I know, to be honest they would have lost interest in some of your deeper, to my mind more interesting vids but this one, wow, spot on, we want to learn from you, your a master of this sport, this vid is gold. Take care Garry love you (in a man to man way) , he, him , if you were wondering. X
Hi he-man. You are the teacher's pet after comments, praise, sharing, and gay (even if in the old fashioned way) hugs and kisses. Now I am inspired to shoot flip part two at my next opportunity, speaking of finer details. I also must include in the MOVES NEWS a discussion about young skaters and coaches, who too often think they already know it all, as I did in my days of high hubris. Bye for now, Him.
Perfect timing, I've been struggling with my flip lately.
Thank you very much. I strive for ideal positions and motions to make it easy on myself.
Preach the truth Gary!
I'm doing my best, Chris. First I have to discover it in all its complexity. Your comments can help. Thanks for dropping by. Stick with us.
Beautiful ❤
For double: jump higher or rotate faster?
my coach always used to say I need more height when I was practicing doubles. Eventually rotation speed comes naturally with proper shoulder position
Hi Piotr, in Garyland, which purports to be as real as you, sir, you have your choice. There is one more choice: do both. I personally prefer bringing Axel up to double Axel height and then just getting tighter to rotate faster for the double.
@@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater Thanks a lot! But I guess it's better to practice technique, rather than squats with heavy weight?
Gary buenos días. Excelente clase. Me gustó mucho. Patinar en reversa lo haces ver no tan complicado . La seguridad que transmites es importante. Gracias por compartir tú conocimiento y experiencia. ❤🎉saludos desde ciudad de México 🇲🇽 te queremos mucho.
Gracias Gary. Te queremos mucho en México 🇲🇽
Arrivedecci you in Italy * Grrazie Senor, Gary ❤ Richard San Francisco
Love it, I still play with the snowmen and penguins if I spot one a kid has abandoned, there is a table at our rink, I'll ask the ice master if I can have a play with it today. Thank you for sharing fun times put a real smile in my face.
I just hope nobody looks at you like some kind of weirdo, Paul. Haha
@@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater just had an amazing skate after I last replied, the ice temp controller at our rink got wet and needs fixing, the ice temp was minus 9 today, it was like skating on glass, so much fun, they wouldn't let me use a table though lol, we also have a huge crack in the middle of the rink where the ice contracted, brill fun though.
Gary to old for " Goofing around ** and wasting * skills * Figure Skating ⛸️ Always ❤ Richard
Why age prejudice, Richard?
Gary felicidades eso me parece muy divertido. Es fascinante y maravilloso ❤
Did you ever work with Kurt Browning on choreo back in the day? He's the only other skater I've ever seen do anything remotely like the kind of edge work you do.
I did choreograph a piece for Kurt once upon a time. He is quite the master athlete, artist, and showman.
You have such great skating skills! How long have you been skating? Will you be going to Oberstdorf to compete @ Adult Internationals next May?
Thanks! I have been skating for 55 years! I have competed in Oberstdorf many times. I take it one year at a time. Competing in Calgary ISU adult competition in a few weeks! Is Obi on for May? I heard rink was closing for maintenance Jan to June.
Sure hope it is on as i have my rooms booked! Training for it already! @@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater
It was announced.
The music is obnoxious. I suggest some swing and being able to hear your skate blades against the ice.
Music is a problem. Videos are muted if I don't have rights to the music. Any suggestions? This is voluntary channel, but if you know someone who wants to promote their music on the channel, I would be interested.
I love watching You skate. And your way of explaining things is remarkable.
Thank you very much, Kate, and thanks for being part of the GARY MOVES community.
Bonito día y fin de semana 🎉
Gary excelentes giros. Felicidades ❤
Good Hands Gary ** How far your Deep Edge **
This is something that all the young skaters at the ice rink should be aware of before their performance. This should be on a big, fancy website where people sign up or see dates for competitions, and your video should be right there so that everyone can learn this. From what I’ve seen, kids and people, including myself, really struggle with this part. And you voiced the fundamentals so well for an audience. Good job on YouTubing, Dad!
i love how deep your edges are. i am flat coming out of my rockers and they lose speed on the second lobe.
Most skaters are flatter on the second side of rockers. Not enough twist or not anticipating the lean as the curve changes direction.
Felicidades Gary excelente demostración de talento ❤
Gary excelente demostración gracias ❤
Gary Your good Good Skater * please get some Serious about " Moves in Artistic impression more to yourself ** ❤❤ Richard San Francisco **
🙏 🙏 🙏
Hi Gary, Thank you so much for making these videos! I haven't watched them all yet, as after every one, I want to get on the ice asap and practice 🙂. All of your loop tips in this video help a lot. Now I am mostly struggling a bit with back outside loops. I found a video from the '88 Calgary compulsory figures competition and started trying the loops using a Shafer push like they do: ruclips.net/video/NJDOxzANY1s/видео.html My strong side is going ok, but not the other (yet!)
Back outside loops are the most difficult because the deep back outside edge needed to lead into the loop is the most difficult for skaters. Thanks for sharing your comment. It is always nice to hear that these videos are helping inspire and instruct!
It’s great to watch you skate ⛸️ I miss the ice so bad, but I’m still active with in the sport thankfully. Great tips for skaters, hope they listen ⛸️⛸️
Thanks, Doc Momma, glad you appreciate!
I would love to bring a spring eagle into my repertoire, but I don't think my hips open that much even after years of stretching exercises. Schade...
I was not able to do a spread eagle until into my forties, so don't give up hope!
Super explanation
O wowew
Gary , you really enjoying in Japan , * Take care Always ❤ Richard San Francisco ** Be Safe **
I just re watched, you are a true inspiaration to me, i too act like a young free spirit, im 53, and show no signs of getting old, I just want to hug you ( in a man way lol) there is allot of life in us old dogs.
E-hugs to you, Paul!
@@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater Garry, you coming to the UK, woohoo, would be great to see you, I would pay for all of your expenses and a generous hrly rate if you could find time to spend on ice with me and Sophie, maybe some.sort of informal coach session, even just for fun, hints and tips to help us along, or just messing around having fun, possible? Just to be able to say "I skated with Garry beacom" would.make.my year.
OMG I seriously would like to skate with you, how you skate on those wheels is EXACTLY how I skate, I just do what I want and enjoy what happens, I have no idea what I will do next, just enjoy and flow, no plan no routine, just enjoy the freedom and opportunity to express myself, you are a true and appreciated mentor and guide for me, thank you Garry, skating should be full of fun happiness and enjoyment, not drills routines and relentless painfull trying to make that triple, I can't even do a single but I know I enjoy skating more than the people that only want to do that, love you garry
Thanks for the encouragement for both me and the algorithms, Paul. I will perform in an inline show in Darlington in November. I hope to meet you before too long.
@@GaryBeacom-FigureSkater Darlington only 170 miles away, how do I book a front row ticket?
I really really got to ask, why on earth are you doing an inline performance, your pretty good on inlines but superb on ice. Id pay to watch either live but would much prefer to see you performing on ice.
You don't bend your knees ** Thank you Gary , ❤ Richard San Francisco **
Felicidades Gary. Me gustó mucho tú presentación. Es maravillosa. La comparto en mi Facebook. ❤
Gracias, Yesenia!
We are really lucky too, we get the rink to ourselves quite often, there is nothing like it, the freedom is so amazing. Nice edges, nice control, I just hope one day I will be half as good as you. You make a good point that too much time is not so good, we've had weeks with 4/5 hrs a day and by Thursday we burn out. I can't wait to take your advice, I've never tried to be conscious of my foot in the way you describe, looking forward to my next session more than ever, thank you again.
Hi Paul, this can be a low energy type of practice, so you can spend more time on the ice without driving yourself to exhaustion. If you have the luxury of lots of ice, you can warm up very slowly and improve skating skill.
i am 60 years old and learn to skate..thanks for.sharing
than greatest ice skating guide
Gary felicidades excelente trabajo. Eres muy entusiasta y profesional.
Believe who you are , and Love what you Doing in Figure Skating ** ❤ Richard **
Do you, or can you do any basic videos on one foot balance, and outside edges for someone who has bad pronation?
