SALCHOW DRILL Keeping pressure to the inside of the circle on the Salchow jump is pivotal for skaters because it enables them to maintain the correct timing and tension in their body mechanics. This controlled pressure helps them harness the kinetic energy generated during the entry, translating it into upward force, ultimately allowing for greater height and a more graceful execution of the jump.

Ulrich Salchow was born on this day in 1877. (7 August 1877 – 19 April 1949) Olympic Gold Medallist (1908) & 10X World Champion (From 1901 to 1905, and from 1907 to 1911.)

SALCHOW TURN EXERCISE Strengthening your three turns both forward outside and backward outside, will set you up for better control on the double or triple salchow. ❌Some common mistakes on the salchow three turn entrance and back three: - Back three not checked - Three turn falls into the circle creating wide entry - Hips not stacked ✅Here is a great on ice exercise to practice control and stacking of the hips. 🔑to Success….make sure to feel on top the blade for both turns with the hips under I

A great drill for skaters who need to work on their salchow patience. Common errors on the Sal include: ❌skating side pulls the rest of the body outside the circle ❌upper and lower body are on separate timing ❌skaters are taking off too early This drill forces skaters to drive completely through on the take-off and maintain a nice skating side check.
