Salchow Three Turn Check Exercise | FLEXAFIT

The three turn entrance is a beautiful take off for the salchow, however it can get swingy sometimes if the skater does not have the proper check positions.
❌Some common mistakes on the salchow three turn entrance:
- Push in phase is already turning into the circle
- Free leg is not checked behind skating leg after the turn
- Hip is too turned down after three turn
- Timing is too fast on each part of the turn, causing it to spin
✅Here is a great on ice exercise to practice control:
1️⃣Start on the circle pushing in to the forward outside edge and holding for a count of 3
2️⃣Turn the three turn and hold the back edge for another count of 3
3️⃣Push back to the outside edge on the opposite foot to control the exercise on the circle
4️⃣Repeat step 1, 2, and 3 for a set of 5 turns and then try it the other way!
🔑to Success….make sure you stay on the circle tracing the line. Control the hip placement and upper body to be checking inside the circle.

My coach had me try this! It’s a lot harder than it looks 😅but it’s also really fun
