Nick Perna - Lutz Part 2
|
Nick Perna continues his development of the lutz jump and talks
at length about how to correct a flutz problem. You've got to see this
video to understand Nick's views on the "reach back" that gets so much
attention. He even draws the proper traces on the ice and he gives precise
estimates for the desired distance between the toe pick and the edge on a good
lutz. He then compares it to flip.
Nick's suggests that a skater with a flutz problem is really a
beginner when it comes to learning a lutz and that explains his approach to
working with any skater on this element. He also says any skater that has
a true flutz problem usually cannot even do a half lutz correctly.
As I said for part 1, this is one of the best treatments of the
lutz I've EVER seen.
To see the first part of this video, check out

Perna's Lutz Part 1.

I watched your first video Thursday and had a lesson with one of my students (who had a big flutz) yesterday. The first time she tried your technique, (after working on the power pull exercise for awhile) it was fixed!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
» [- Sep 27, 2008 at 9:27 AM -] Sheila Thelen says: THANKS NICK! Loved the lesson! I've never thought about the blade distance in relation to the leg/knee position. You're a genius!
» [- Feb 1, 2009 at 9:53 AM -] Michelle Leigh says: Great explanation of why the toe placement is different distance to the appropriate edge on the flip vs lutz! thanks Nick.
» [- Feb 19, 2009 at 5:06 PM -] minime says: Excellent use of progression to get to the end product. Thanks! Anyone know where to buy one of those pens for the ice?.....I've been searching for ages on the net
» [- Mar 20, 2009 at 9:06 AM -] Tim G says: I loved it! I learned from it!
» [- May 3, 2009 at 12:30 PM -] Nathalie says: Minime, a regular permanent marker works just great on the ice.
Can't wait to try this progression on my skater.
» [- Jun 23, 2009 at 4:52 PM -] Debi says: I can hardly wait to get to my students to get them corrected. Thanks!
» [- Feb 5, 2010 at 5:49 AM -] Lisa says: I can't wait to try these technques out!!! This was really helpful information....Thank you!!!
» [- Feb 15, 2011 at 7:52 PM -] Cc says: Superb analysis. A great video to refer back to in future.
» [- Dec 6, 2011 at 8:39 AM -] jc says: Answer for minime... ZIG poster markers I've have found work the best, lasts the longest, with no smell. I first found them at an art supply store, but you can order online. Worth the slightly higher price. Also find that it dries faster so it won't stain clothes if they fall on the marks. Just remember to shake it a lot to get started. Sharpe also puts out a poster marker but cost even more. Great video!
