How to Learn Crossovers on Ice Skates

How to do a Forward Crossover

The skating school teaches elements in a certain order because they're like a staircase: you don't jump to the top of a staircase, you climb one step at a time.

Don't jump ahead to crossovers because you will develop some bad habits that will stop you from learning the higher-level stuff.

Forward crossovers are in Basic 4. You should be working on things in Basic 1 or 2 right now. That will help you move up to Basic 2, and then you can work on Basic 2 and 3 elements. See the progression? It will make your lesson time more productive and really refine your skating skills needed so that learning an advanced skill at the proper time will be much easier.

Forward crossovers are a great example - many skaters can do a one-foot glide on a flat - meaning, no edges. That's nice, but to do forward crossovers, they first have to master proper stroking, have excellent balance, hold their shoulders and hips correctly, and be able to hoooold the one-foot edges on a curve.


Work on these things before Basic 4 and forward crossovers:

. One foot glides
. Stroking with proper pushoffs (inside edge of blade, not the toepick)
. Forward 1/2 swizzle pumps - on the line or on a circle
. Forward one-foot glides, curving with a circle on both the outside and inside edges of each foot.

The skaters that haven't mastered those skills stand out at the rink when they do crossovers because they can't get their free foot all the way across, they move in a straight line instead of a curve, they trip or drop their foot down due to poor balance, and they basically look like horses stomping around. Not what you want to look like at the rink.

You don't want to fake these elements - you should be able to master them and look like a skater, not a horse. Don't rush trying to teach yourself - just practice the things you've learned and you'll be a wonderful skater, not a faker.

It's really important to make the most of your lesson and practice time by building these "foundation" elements before you learn the higher-level things, so take your time.

Forward Crossovers - Video lesson Instructions

Forward Crossovers: Video lesson Instructions
Forward Crossovers Video mini lesson by Instructor Team Leader Alan Noble.

A video mini lesson showing the technique of the forward crossover. An important note on technique: a good way to test your technique on forward crossovers is to skate a circle slowly while listening to your pushes. The more powerful the push, the louder the push will sound, so naturally practice this until both pushes sound exactly the same in terms of loudness and duration of the push. When done correctly the stride push and the x-push generate exactly the same power.



The first thing of importance are the edges. To have strong edges, is to make sure they are under 45 degrees angle to the ice.

The second X-push is more difficult, because it is often not practiced enough. It is unnatural.

In order order to have a good balance, you have to lean your upper body out of the circle. A lot of people believe, if you lean you entire body in you'll have stronger edges, but as we mentioned earlier, strong edges are from your ankles, leaning those ankles on a 45 degree angle.

To get balance you have to counter-lean and lean your upper body out. The lower body is already in, now you have to balance this out. And the way to do this is by kipping your shoulders leveled to the ice. Lift your inside shoulder up. If you're doing good job, then you inside shoulder will be slightly higher then the outside shoulder.
