Product Description

This 3 minute 13 second video lesson has a valuable axel exercise that Douglas Haw explains in detail.  He uses a fun “Gennie” exercise that makes it fun and easy to remember the important tips.

This exercise starts with a three jump on the line.  You will use a half a heart shape.  This gives you a deeper curve which helps you jump up.  Also making hitting your toe easier.  Douglas teaches you to lead with your left elbow leading.  You will then add more turn to this axel exercise.

Douglas then talks about the “dreaded” forward take off in this jump.  Doug then does a quick review then gives a close up view on the actual edge on the ice.  You can then try your full axel on the line with this pattern.

Douglas then tells you how progressions are very important to leaning.  So this lesson is so valuable with these very helpful progressions.
