| Publisher Description: This book contains graphs showing the movement of a skater across synthetic ice. Moves demonstrated include starting and stopping, forward and backward stroking, turning and footwork (3-turns, brackets, rockers, counters, mohawks, and choctaws), and gliding (camel position, spirals). These data can be used for lesson plans by teachers and parents. Bonus Material: Other features include graphs of the forces involved in stepping, and graphs of a skater falling through thin ice. Plus, appendices include diagrams of a left-right color-coded cartoon character, "Blue Dude," demonstrating footwork and skating positions. |
