This is for figure-skaters.
I've done my one-foot spin but I've been deffintaly struggling. l need to go around at least 6 times but my balance is all off on my foot. l keep leaning back and forth, mainly to far forward
Any advice or excersizes l could do to improve this?

Just keep practicing! U should try to think in your mind about leaning up against a wall and then u wo not go back and fourth.

do 1 back cross-over (opposite the way you spin) step in and spin the other way... . your arms need to be out your free foot out to the side. Do not turn it in.

Work on beginning one-foot spins from a pivot entrance. Be sure to give yourself a big push in ur pivot.not just with ur foot, but use ur arms also to ''fling'' yourself into the spin. The added speed will help u increase ur revolutions & sometimes make it easier to hold ur position. Sometimes its hard to get the feel of being on the right part of ur blade to keep spinning. Try staying towards the ball of ur foot..not too high on ur toe pick & be very careful not to lean back. Think of yourself as a puppet on a string. If the string is pulled up, ur body will stand up straight. Keep ur shoulders & hips level & square (lined up). Usually skaters will raise the hip of their free foot, sending them whirling off into space. Practice one-foot glides to help u get comfortable with the weight transfer for the spin. Your weight will be over ur spinning foot. If ur weight is still centered, u will tend to put ur free foot down in ur spin. It might sound silly, but u can practice ur spins at home on a smooth floor with socks on..all skaters do it. :) Good luck.. l hope that spin comes for you!

Try not to look at your feet when your skating, that might be what is causing you to go foward. Try to stay on the ball of your foot. Really think- ball of foot, ball of foot. Going on your toepick or back of the blade can cause you to rock. Make sure you are standing up really staright, too. Just keep practicing it, and eventually your balance will improve.

l been a figure skater for awhile and r up 2 flying spins like flying sit and camel.
Make sure you dont spin on your heel because that will slow your spin down and down spin on ur toe-pick because it will just get stuck in the ice and u wont b able 2 spin.. towards the front of ur blade there is a spot for spinning and the spot where u spin s between the toe-picks and the middle of the blade it is a little rounded and u shud b able 2 spin on that part

try to lean your hip out on the foot that you are spinning on. keep your spinning leg dead straight. with the free foot, put it out to the side a bit and raise it high. also try to find the center of the ball of your foot. it will feel slightly bumpy. that is where you want to lean on when your are spinning.
