Hi! I’m Simone Fisher and I’m here at Clearwater
Ice Arena in sunny Clearwater, Florida. On behalf of Expert Village, we’re going to introduce
to you some advanced figure skating jumps. Hi! My name is Bill Shanks and I’m going to
demonstrate for you a Waltz Jump. When you’re doing a Waltz Jump, it’s very important that
you keep your whole upper body strong and straight. We’re going to jump up off of our
left outside edge, up into the air, and landing on our right back outside edge. I’ll demonstrate.

it doesn't at all..
i'm learning how to do a toe loop and salchow. I know how to do the waltz jump, but i cant keep my leg straight when i jump :[
my teacher always has to tell me to bend my legs, unless you mean comming out of it and the foot that's in the air. cuz yeah tht one is supposed to be straight, which is harder
Isnt that the 3 jump? or is the waltz just the fanxy name for it? lol
he's much better at explaining it than that other girl
im learning it now my sister is teaching me it and i still hang on the wall. but, i can go fast and land in a spiral postion
oh and im trying to get of the wall. and i learned it tonight.
whats on his neck?
I am in figure skating and i can do this. i find this move very graceful and awsome
um… this is advanced? What's standard? This is the first jump i learned… I learned it as a beta…=/
No, this is not a toe-assisted jump. Jump without using your toe-pick. Your coach is, for some reason, telling you wrong. Sounds like its time to find a new coach if the current one doesn't even know basic technique for one of the most basic jumps.
yay.. i can do this jump! But we call it a three jump.. hehe.. that man is funny.. hehe
i love the waltz jump but my fav i the flip
But how do you turn to skate backwards do you need to do it as quick as you can
u do it from a mohawk, and not quickly, but nice and controlled
I love the sound the skates make on ice 🙂
yer i was told you can do it from back crossovers or mohawk
amature village!
I figured this jump out on my own, I don't even take lessons in figure skating. I even didn't know it was a waltz jump.
Wow, this is advanced? i learnt this when i was like 6.
we call it a 3 jump
same here too!
its one of the only jumps i can do- i can also stay on one foot while jumpign from forward to backward and i can do a two foot full roatai0on in the air- sounds cooler than it really is 😛
i learned this jump in pre frestyle and now i am doing double salchows and sit spins and things like that
@kieracrimescene i agree:DD
@Cheybabyxo3 im in freeskate 1 and i can do a waltz jump very easily. just try not to get to forward and try to spring ur leg up high so you can turn and land on a bent knee. it just takes some practice and when ur able to do it, its pretty fun
what's on the neck (at the back) of the one who demonstrated the jump? if it is the "rope" of the I.D., why is it staying up…
HAHAHA!
LIKE I CAN DO THAT!
wow thats horrible ice or horrible blades if you hear the screeching of your blade on the ice. LAMEEEEE!
haha i passed that move at my last ice skating lesson(: took me only 2 minutes haha 😀
His backward crossovers leave him bobbing up and down. Is the whole point of sliding your foot across rather than lifting to avoid this? My coach is nearly 64 years old, and i reckon that if he made a youtube channel with all the jumps and moves on it, it would be the better than any video i have seen on youtube so far for them. Although at 63 or something he can no longer do as much as before :L But at his peak he was doing triple axels and competing at a high level…
@SparkieShuffler I also call it a 3 jump
@SparkieShuffler I also call it a 3 jump
Advanced? … I learned how to do that when I was eight… Wow.
fart
he dragged his toe pick way too much after the landing
I skate for 2 months, and i tried this yesterday, it was the first time to try it, and my friend told me that i did it totally correct, until the third time i tried it when i fell off with my elbows, they still hurt:P
its hard bunny hop
@votetropicana well in england it's a three jump it even says it on my passport and on NISA? damn…
umm i dont think a waltz jump would be classified as an advanced skating jump. an AXEL would be classified as an advanced jump. besides the bunny hop, the waltz jump is usually the first jump that people learn.
umm i dont think the waltz jump would be classified as an advanced skating jump. besides the bunny hop, its usually the first jump people learn. lol, im at about freestyle 3/4, and my coach still makes me practice it 🙂
waltz jump is easy. salchow is hard x.x
@showgrrl69 I don't know I just noticed it because of your comment 🙂 but it looks like he dosen't know about it lol 😀
first of all, that is NOT advanced. he also left out several important details.
I want to try this trick but if I'm just an Amature then would it be possable that I would end up with a broken ankle?
if that's advanced, what isn't? a bunny hop? o wait, that's right. they seem to think that is advanced as well.
@amuletspade131415 no. just try out small, then, as u practice more, grradually make the jump bigger.
can anyone tell me how hard this is to learn coz i would like to try it for the first time this week 😀
I found this one of the hardest to do! I used to skate all the time and it took me half a year to even get anywere near as good as that. I've taken a year off though because of horse riding. Now everything is f*cked up…I can't even do a Forward Spiral anymore…And I have no idea where my coach is…Oh dear :/
this isn't advanced at all!!!!!!!!!
@TheNinjagals 3 jump you land on the same foot
I can half do it. But I can't keep my leg up when I land. -_- Good tutorial though!
Waltz jump are not advanced…….
@kieracrimescene I always feel like I'm losing my balance on the bunny hop lol
this jump is not advanced but it was a good vid 🙂 it was the first jump and the easiest jump i learned!!!
@lyricsmaker102 Indeed, his follow is way too deep.
make it seem so easy. last time i tired that i fell on my head..
finally can do this without falling and good speed but its the 2nd jump you learn to do….
he really needs to get his skates sharpned, that sounded horrible
That's not a good sound, plus that jump was weak, you need to us more strength to go higher, believe me I'm a professional figure skater and I have done ballett for 5 years
waltz jump? i call this a three jump…
@TheGameMofos that sound was because his skates were sharpened, he was cutting into the ice on a string edge therefore making a sound, you cant do that if your skates are blunt
advanced? i learned this on my first day. NO JOKE!
HIS SKATES ARE SHARPENED
wow so hard it bacicly looks like hes a perfectional but hes not
Very nice for all of you who can do it. But it isn't the easiest thing to do and getting it perfect is extremely hard and requieres a lot of training, so just accept that there are people who might want to learn it and to whom this is already a hard jump.
@ashleyismyname4525 well duh!
wow stop according to my recent experience this isn't waltz, it was a simple weak jump with no style and the cross foot where's it?
@thebestbyme Actually this is the waltz jump … and this jump is pretty simple i could do it when i was 9… and you can atually go into the waltz jump without the cross overs but the cross overs bring more speed and helps you get into the air more.
@thebestbyme if you crossed your feet, you'd over rotate. hes demonstrating the single waltz jump.
@thebestbyme whoops sorry. actually, if you crossed your feet, you'd be doing an axel.
You need to bend your knees more but well done:)
you should end with the left foot in front and bring it back once you've landed..
dude! Im the only 6th Grader in my district
who can touched the rim.:) Thanks to that the
program offered by the site:
JumpHigher (d0t) info
It has increased my vert by 3" in just less
than 3 weeks! Ill keep this up so I can
jump higher..:))
It's more like you tripped over the beginner buckets and accidentally did a waltz jump.
no… its not like i was five, i was 12. because i started super late. they started me off as a junior (in my fsc, there's canskate, junior, and senior) so… yeah. cuz my friends told my coach im already pretty good.
also… ive only been skating for two months, and you wouldnt beleive how much ive improved.
after what? the bunny hop… hehe, i love saying that 🙂
Ok… a few beginners getting a little exaggerated? Just because you can DO a waltz jump doesn't mean you do it well.
LARGE MAN
i dont really think thats advanced but what ever
how is a waltz jump advanced?????
More for like beginners, no hate!
You explained it good 🙂
So, are you a World Champion yet?
i call them free jump
yes…it looks advanced for some people…for those who can't even stand on skates
Guys… It's advanced for beginners. That's what they're doing.
So, for anyone getting a wee bit cranky about the "advanced" title. It might not be advanced in the grand scheme of things, but it is one of the first jumps you learn. I think that adds a difficulty to it in some respects. I mean sure, a bunny hop. But this is the first real experience of your feet leaving the ice so it can be kind of intimidating. But fun! Landing your first jump is a really exciting moment, no matter how advanced (or not!) the jump is. Or how shoddy it is. Keep skating! 😀
Called a 3 jump in the UK, my six year old granddaughter does it and she thinks it's advanced lol!
They taught me this when is was in basic wow lol it's not advanced anymore then
they REAAALY need to clean their ice
I was doing waltz jump in basic 5 and laybacks in 6. Yet some stuff basic 6 I didn't do right. I don't understand how I could do more advanced stuff but then still had trouble with basic stuff. still confuses me. XD
not advanced……..
NOOOOOO!!! He is dragging his toe pick! But anyways, i luvvvvvvvvv salts jumps so much. What level are you guys in? I am in free skate 6 (the last level) .
Waltz jumps aren't advanced, they are the first thing I learned after passing all the basic skating school levels.
This guy is a terrible teacher, "i'm going to demonstrate this…" (performs it) Big help you bald fuck who can't do anything else with his life but teach ice skating
That is not advenced !
they teach advanced for beginners yall chill
for all of y'all saying its not an advanced jump, yea, its not if we're talking figure skating. but if we're referring to regular ice skating, yea its more or less considered advanced.
