  1. well, i had a lot of problems with my back spin too but my coach told me to keep my back and leg stick straight and then hold in your arms by ur chest and then push out. hope this helps but its all u gotta do. lol. ♥


  2. you need help with your back spin umm? OK this is so hard to explain on how to do this.you should start by if you know how to do a toe loop then you should not practice the jump but practice the Begin of the jump which is the three turn and then you should practice the spin off ice with some slippery shoes.hope you learn how to do this.

              P.S:

                           Good

                               Luck!

  3. there are skate spinners that you can buy, they are training devices to practice spinning on the ice. your pro shop should have them, if not...google and you'll find them. but the most important yet most difficult is to get on, and stay on that back outside edge. i found that it helps once you turn into it, to push down on the ball of your foot....but on your pinky toe instead of the whole thing. that will/should help you keep an outside edge and the rest should flow from there. thats the most difficult thing in this spin. just keep that edge!! i used to enter the spin standing forward...going onto a right inside edge then just turning into it...so during the turn is when to start pushing down and to the side of your skate with your pinky toe!!!

    Good luck!!
