Skater Jumps
Bound side to side, landing soft on one leg — build lateral power and balance.
How to perform
- 01Start balanced on one leg with a slight bend in the knee and hip.
- 02Push off explosively to the side, bounding onto the opposite leg.
- 03Land softly on the outside leg, letting the knee and hip absorb the landing.
- 04Swing the trailing leg behind for balance, then immediately bound back the other way.
- 05Keep a steady side-to-side rhythm for the full working set.
Coaching cues
- Stick each landing for a beat before rebounding.
- Drive with the outside leg and stay low — no popping upright.
