what is the difference between a triple toe loop jump and a triple flip jump in figure skating?
81484
The difference is the just the last part of the combo---the toe loop and flip....\n\n:flip: \nthis is a toe-assisted jump from the left back inside edge and right toe pick. Like the salchow, the usual entrance is a three turn, but usually from a straight-line approach instead of a curved one. (This jump is sometimes called a "toe salchow" in Europe.)\nThe flip and toe loop look much alike and even experienced observers sometimes have trouble distinguishing them. Here are some things that may help: \n\nFor the flip, the skater picks with the same foot they land on, while with the toe loop they pick with the opposite foot. \nFor the flip, the skater picks inside the curve of the jump, while with the toe loop they pick outside the curve. \nFor the flip, the skater turns away from the picking foot as they jump, while with the toe loop the skater jumps towards the picking foot. \n\n:toe loop :\nthe approach is on a right back outside edge. The skater then reaches back with the left foot and jabs the toe pick into the ice to provide assistance for the jump at takeoff. Often done as the second jump of a combination, or as a solo jump after an inside three turn. If the jump is approached from an outside three turn and step instead, it's sometimes called a "toe walley"; technically the toe walley is supposed to be done from an inside edge, but otherwise the two jumps are considered equivalent. (The toe loop is the same jump that roller skaters call the "mapes", and that is called a "cherry flip" in some parts of the world.) \n:loop: \nthis is also an edge jump, with takeoff from a right back outside edge. Usually skaters approach this jump by skating backwards on two feet, with the left foot crossed in front of the right. Often they look like they are sitting in an invisible chair. Unlike the salchow, there's no swinging of the free leg into the jump; the skater simply springs upward in a cross-legged position. (In Europe, this is also known as a Rittberger jump, after its inventor Werner Rittberger.)

sometimes i just go fast on the skateboard and when im going fast at the same time and I push down a little hard and then try to do a ollie or if this does not work do this:\nEvery trick in skateboarding owes a large debt to the grandfather and basic building block of all moves, the ollie. The idea is simple: just get rolling and jump with the skateboard under foot, after that, the variations are endless. You have the kickflip, the shove-it, the nollie, the impossible, and a myriad of grabs, but there’s just one problem. It’s not quite as easy as it may seem, and if you have gone through skateboarding 101 with the aid of the newest hit video game, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, you may be in for a rude awakening. \n\n\nThe ollie is a simple trick, but it does take a long time to master. The first thing that you may want to keep in mind is that it takes a serious toll upon your unsuspecting footwear. There are special shoes made for skateboarding that are designed with extra padding to compensate for the friction created by sliding your foot along the griptape (a sandpaper like material found on top of any serious skateboard). You may want to get a pair, but they tend to be a bit pricey. It is also a good idea to start off on gravel or some other surface that doesn’t allow the board to move around much. You should work up to performing an ollie while moving after you have it perfected in this way. \n\n\n \nThe first step is to place your feet properly upon the skateboard. There are two typical stances in skateboarding. When your left foot is at the back, you are skating "goofy-footed", and when your right foot is at the back, you are said to be skating "regular". Either way is just as good; all that matters is what comes more comfortable and natural to you. You back foot should be on the tail at the point right before it hangs off the edge, and your front foot should be about halfway down the skateboard. You may feel a little unbalanced like this, but it will become easier with time. \n\n\nNext, you must crouch down slightly, bending at the knees (you can put your hands out slightly to help keep your balance). The basic ollie involves a quick shift in balance. Start off leaning back with a strong push down upon the tail so it touches the ground. Just as quickly as you have done that, jump up while sliding your front foot up towards the nose or front of the skateboard. Your board will be at an angle by now. The last part involves pushing down with your front foot to level out the board. The higher you jump, the higher your ollie will be. You must do all these steps in one single fluid motion, and this should result in a snapping of your board upon the ground causing it to jump up into the air underneath your feet. That’s all there is to it. \n\n\nIt may sound simple, but learning how to ollie takes a very long time – usually as much as six months to learn properly. After you perfect the ollie, you can work on height by stacking other skateboards (or anything else) and jumping them. Once you perfect this all-important trick, the world of skateboarding will be entirely open to you. All it takes is a good deck and a whole lot of determination!

i'm a figure skater.so obviously i have figure skates. but if you really really dont like them. you can try boy's figure skates. Thers not much of a difference between the 2. unless you prefer to switch the hockey skates which probably wont be a good idea.

A figure skating clus rents ice time at an arena and the members of the club skate during those periods. Figure skating clubs usually have a number of professionals who teach skating and some skaters take lessons from the professionals (at an extra cost). Other skaters just join a club to skate; some may prefer ice dancing and some may prefer freeskating, where they can perform the different jumps, footwork and spins, something that `public' skating sessions at arenas don't allow.

The back handspring...First, start with your arms above your head, then bend your legs like you are sitting in a chair, while you are bending your legs, swing your arms down by your side.  Then, jump backwards while swinging your arms back up to your head.  Pretend that you are jumping to a handstand, then snap your feet to the ground and stand up.  The other flip...the cartwheel looking thing is a round-off, basically a cartwheel ending with your feet together, followed by either a back handspring or different no-handed flips (back tucks, layouts, etc.)

First off, if u are goofy, put your right foot forward close to the front screws and towards the middle not the edge, and left one behind you really close to the back edge. With both of your feet lean on your balls of ur feet, and with your left foot tip the skateboard were there is only one end of it one the floor, and at the exact same time you ROLL/SLIDE your right foot/toe upwards on the skateboard, you have to roll with enough force that the skateboard jumps into the air. If you are regular same thing just visaversa.

a "toe sliider"  is a "pitcher" in baseball that does not use a high leg kick in his delivery of the ball to home plate... rather he just  "slides" his toe in the direction of his pitch..... more often called a "slide step"  [ as opposed to a high leg kick]\n LOL, i gave it my best shot.... you got me ..lol... i luv it!

1. Set your feet up like you would for an ollie.\n \n2. Place the ball of your front foot toward the middle of the board and slightly below the front bolts.\n \n3. Hit your tail as you would for an ollie, but instead of dragging your front foot up the board, drag it toward the side of the board with a flicking motion. The faster the flick, the faster the flip. It's all in the ankle.\n \n4. Stay over the board as you are jumping and the board is flipping (it's important not to push down on the board once you're up so that it can continue to rise).\n \n5. Let the board hit your back foot once it has flipped completely. This is called catching the flip. Your front foot should not be far behind in getting back on the board, but the back foot usually catches it first. This allows you to control the trick on the way down.\n \n6. Land with your feet as close to the bolts as possible.\n \n7. Do another one.

it seems better if you run and flip then slit.  it will help you practice without the flip.  Like a cartwheel or roundoff then fall into the slit.

It's all about personal preference.  There are actually three different set up types on inline skates:\n\n1. Flat Rocker - All four wheels on each skate are the same size so that all wheels are touching the ground.  People like this set up because it gives them the ability to go faster.  One of the downfalls though, is that with the bigger wheels in the center people tend to stick on certain grinds that use the center of the frame.\n\n2. Anti Rocker - This set up also has four wheels on each skate, however the two outer wheels are larger and softer than the two inner wheels.  This helps alleviate the issue of sticking which is faced in riding flat, however also takes away speed since only two wheels on each skate are touching the ground.\n\n3. Freestyle - This is a relatively new set up where skaters ride with only the two outer wheels.  This gives much more room in the center of the frame for certain tricks like royales, and farfs.  Again, you tend to go a bit slower without four wheels, but this set up does give a lot more grind space and allows for easier switch ups from trick to trick.\n\nIf you look at all of the pros, you will find a mix of  all these set up types.  It seems that Freestyle is pretty popular right now since several frame companies are manufacturing Freestyle specific frames (Able, Ground Control, Xsjado).  Who knows, maybe there will be a fourth set up some time soon.\n\nNo matter what is popular, it's all about what you are most comfortable with and what you like to skate.

This is your lucky day!  I used to teach skating lessons back when people skated on 4 wheelers.  I'm assuming they still come equipped with a rubber toe stop on the front.  The first thing to learn is to drag the toe stop behind you while skating forward and slowly bring yourself to a stop.  Once you've mastered this, you'll realize how geeky it is.\n\nThe next thing to do is to learn how to skate backwards.  Starting at a standstill with your toes pointed together, force your feet apart in an outwards motion and then bring them back together again.  Sort of like doing an hourglass over and over.  This will get you going in a backwards motion.  To stop, simply lean forward on both toe stops.  It's fun when you're going fast.\n\nAs you become better, you'll learn how to stop without the toe stops when you're skating forward.  One way is to drag one foot behind the other in a sort of t-shape.  So instead of dragging the toe stop, you're dragging the inner front and rear wheel of the skate that's stopping you.\n\nEventually, you'll learn how to stop much the way skiers do, by turning both skates sideways and catching the inner edge of the right foot and the outer edge of the left foot at the same time.

The flip flop thing is about having exposed toes.  The chances are much greater for getting smashed/stubbed toes in flip flops than in a close-toed heel.  \n\nPLUS, for insurance purposes, schools will argue that running in hallways is against the rules, whereas your feet can get smashed just walking crowded hallways via flip flops.  So if you twist your ankle in a hurry, you should have been on time.

It's called the "long jump."\nPrior to the 1960's, or thereabouts, some people referred to it as the "broad jump".\nAlso, prior to the 60's, the "triple jump" was called the "Hop-skip-jump" or Hop-step jump".
