Mindset Shift
Advanced skaters fall all the time. When they see someone fall, they think "they're learning it."
Get Down Low
Bend your knees, touch your calves — lower your center of gravity before a fall finds you.
Pick a Side
When falling is inevitable, choose a side and let your body's natural softness cushion the impact.
Up! Up! Up!
Get up immediately, as if the fall was part of your routine.
Perform Your Way Out
Push-ups, floorwork — find a move that turns a fall into part of your skating.
