How do you do a spiral in figure skating?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You raise once leg and balance and glide on one foot. If you are right footed raise your right foot up and vice versa for left footed. Straighten both knees, and raise your free leg (leg in the air) to at least hip height or 90 degrees. Turn your foot horizontal to the ice, point your foot, and hold leg in that position for as long as intended or desired.

How do ice skaters glide so smooth across the ice?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The weight of a skater is concentrated in the thin blades of the skate, which exert enough pressure on the ice to cause some of it to melt. The water then lubricates the skate, which moves almost frictionlessly across the ice. Even without lubrication, ice tends to be quite slippery. So as long as the skater can remain balanced, the movement is quite smooth.
