What people are saying about the book: Comment from a reader: "I highly recommend that you order Jo Ann Schneider Farris' book, How to Jump and Spin on In-Line Skates. It'll answer a lot of questions, help to get you started, and is a real encouragement. It's a great reference guide and fun to read (also has photos)." Patti From Liz Miller, well-known California skating instructor and author of the books Get Rolling and California Inline Skating: "Jo Ann has a warm, encouraging and very enthusiastic writing style, and she delivers what the book's title promises: information about the in-line figure skating discipline, gear, and moves. The gear section and glossary are also useful." From John Petell, President of Harmony Sports: "Jo Ann's book is a giant step toward exposing the fine sport of in-line freestyle skating, with its many and wondrous movements, to the public. From Nick Perna, National and International figure skating coach and co-inventor of the PIC® Frame Skate: "This book is well written and extremely thorough for this type of instruction. I think just about anybody who is interested in in-line figure skating techniques will be able to learn something new from this book." Comment from the author: "I want to encourage everyone who in-line skates to consider jumping and spinning on your skates! It is so much fun. You don't have to be an advanced figure skater to jump and spin; on in-line skates, there are no rules really, so you can even create your own moves. Also, consider this: imagine how impressed your friends will be when they see you do a small jump, glide into an artistic move like a spiral, or see you spinning on one foot? They might want to try it too. For me jumping and spinning on in-lines helped me remember why I enjoy skating. It is so challenging, and there's always something new to try. I'm never bored! You'll find that learning to jump and spin is just adding another satisfying dimension to in-line skating. Keep in mind, the main thing is simply to go out there and have fun!"

Now there's a masterfully written guide that shows beginning and recreational skaters the fundamental skills of ice skating. In Ice Skating: Steps to Success, Karin K "nzle-Watson--nine-time Swiss National Champion, former Professional World Champion, and one of skating's best instructors--shares with readers the steps that she and many of her students learned on their way to becoming elite competitive skaters. Most instruction books available on ice skating tend to focus on advanced jumps or spins, assuming the reader will learn the basics through professional instruction. Ice Skating: Steps to Success, however, covers fundamental skills in a way that's easy to understand and apply. Part of the highly popular Steps to Success Series, this book includes 11 steps (chapters) that progress from basic to intermediate skills. It features over 300 illustrations that make it possible to learn proper form and technique. Readers will learn how to: - attain the posture and control required for basic skills; - use standard methods of gaining forward and backward speed; - execute four different methods of stopping; - fall properly and get up easily; - change direction without loss of control; and - control the skate edges in order to prepare for advanced maneuvers, including jumps, spins, and footwork. With Ice Skating: Steps to Success, beginning and recreational skaters will develop a solid foundation of skills to help them gain confidence in their abilities and enjoy the sport more.
