Systematic Figure Skating: The Spin and Jump Techniques of Gustave Lussi, Volume I: SPINS, DVD

SYSTEMATIC FIGURE SKATING: The Spin and Jump Techniques of Gustave Lussi, Volume I: SPINS features Paul Wylie and others “on lesson” with Mr. Lussi, receiving step-by-step instruction for the sit, back scratch, and “forward” scratch spins.

Lussi coached sixteen World and Olympic champions and hundreds of international and national champions and medalists.

CECILY MORROW studied, trained, and worked extensively with Gustave Lussi for 24 years, in the later stages of his career, shortly after Mr. Lussi invented and refined such maneuvers as the ‘delayed Axel’, ‘delayed’ double and triple jumps. At Lussi’s request, Morrow documented his skating techniques in these videos which she wrote, produced, and directed with Doug Wilson and Dick Button of ABC Sports.

“His really is the foundation of technique…no one will ever, ever, be able to get away from it, because it’s based on sound, fundamental concepts.” John Misha Petkevich, World Champion, two-time Olympic team member, Harvard graduate, television sports commentator, Lussi student, American Skating World
