I have the pink spinner, (it was bought first due to price point..which you get what you pay for) which I can say can be dangerous...and its frustrating when you are just learning your spins..it can also lead to developing bad habits to have to compensate for being pushed back on your heel to catch yourself from falling. I also have the last spinner..which is my all time favorite! It hits all my checks..its sturdy, you can put it anywhere, won't damage your floors, stays in place, nice rotation if you're going slow or fast and its easy to fit in your skate bag!

And once I got the hang of it a little bit, it was even more fun. I’ve only been skating properly for under 2 months, so I’m not even past my two foot spins. Gotta get myself one soon!!

Love your review and absolutely agree with your conclusion - Jerry's is best. Have had it and an Edea for some time to help with on-ice spins but found them both of limited benefit. Now however with rinks closed it's all we've got - aaarrrggghhhh! Looking forward to the tutorial. As soon as possible PLEASSE PLEASE!!!

Hi Coach, got my spinner, wow what a rush!! Before I could spin, I first held steady the start position to get the alignment, shoulder hip, knee, foot. to get my balance . Once I could do that, hold the position, I did the spin. A popular item, thanks to you, to be better, Jerry's maybe could make a higher end model using roller bearings instead of the ball bearings to make it more stable. Great Review !

Im having a hard time maintaining position in my rocker, and keep dragging my toepicks. I want to fix this off ice but which one is better to fix it, edea espinner or jerrys spinner?

This was super interesting thank you! I have the Jerry's spinner and I kind of like it but I find it really hard to do more than 3 revs as you just get thrown off it if you aren't perfectly centred. That's where I wondered if the Edea spinner has an advantage in that it travels? When I see people do combination spins or really long spins, it's always on the Edea spinner, as it's sooo hard to hold the position on a spinner that is fixed in place. I was thinking of buying an Edea spinner as well, but am hesitating a bit after watching this! They are so expensive for a hunk of plastic (about $70 where I live). The Jerry's one already cost me close to $100 so am reluctant to buy the Edea one if it's not amazing lol. Looking forward to your spinner videos, maybe that will help me with the one I have. Camel spins in particular are terrifying on the spinner!

Hey there. have you had any better luck with the Jerry’s Spinner? It is true that the edea spinners allow you to travel more, but personally for my students I prefer to have them focus on a centered spin rather than a long one. And the Jerry’s Spinner works for that.

Hi There, your videos are so good. You are an excellent explainer. Thank you for your dedication. It would be wonderful if you make some videos about excercise, positions and stretching out of ice (without spinner) to improve postures and work out musles necessary to skate. Thank you.

I don’t think that your favorite spinner is the best. The Edea-Spinner is made to practice to stay on the ball of the foot. It’s really hard, yes... but if you are able to do a nice spinn on this spinner it’s al lot easier on the ice. If you don’t have this curve on der the pad, you can stand on your heel and spinn. The risk to train a wrong technique is a lot higher. -Ger

That’s a great idea. I’d be interested in checking the new one out.

I have the first and the third and would be considered a beginner. I am 34 and have passed learn to skate adult 1/3/5 and pre free skate and started free skate 1 pre coronavirus. I like the first one better actually as a beginner. The third one requires you to know how to spin and body position and is too unforgiving if you have no dance or ballet or skating background because you can't even get a revolution or two in without falling off without knowing where center is for you (I played water polo and did swimming, weight lifting, power lifting, gymnastics). I have also drawn blood with the third one since your skin can get caught, and I have small feet...not sure how people with big feet do it at all (9.5 shoe as male). Maybe they wear shoes like you are 😉 that's a smart idea. I use the first one in bare feet on smooth concrete floors in condo and am able to get onto the ball of my foot, and I struggle with finding the rocker for spins in my skates--they told me spinning would be easier in my own skates vs rentals...not the case! The rentals I was Good at spinning. My own skates the pick is so big there is no forgiveness between pick and runner unless it is perfect. I've been able to get up to 4-5 revolutions on the first trainer when on ice I have got maybe 3. I've learned body position, being patient, and not jerking my limbs in too fast. The problem with all of them is I literally get motion sickness for the rest of the day. Even thinking about it now is giving me motion sickness. When I spin, I find going the other way and taking breaks to just focus somewhere to stop my eyes from oscillating helps but doesn't eliminate the issue.

Crap that is the exact spinner I have (your bottom choice). The tip about the heel is very good to know. I think I may have just been mentally compensating for it though. I'm definitely in the beginner category so hopefully I can keep it from giving me bad habits and make sure that if there is any rocking going on that it is at least towards the front.

Wears holes in them after weeks of practice. But only $5 for 2 pairs of socks. Or now u can use all those mixed up odds from dryer.
