Objective
Learn and keep up a spin-around-juke
Activity
One blocker (or a couple of cones) will stand in the middle of the track. The jammer then:
- Skates up to the cones, until they're very close
- Makes one Juke motion to one side
- Jumps to the other side, landing backwards on both feet
- Skates around the blocker, backwards
This move is shown in this video:

Tip: If you want to start with the basics for this move, first practice some other juking moves, and some backwards skating, then move on to this drill once skaters are ready.
Check For Learning
When students get better at the move, they should mix it in with their other juking moves. Then the blocker they're trying to juke can predict where they're going by putting a hand out in that direction (step 1) or try to hit them (step 2) or move freely on left and right and then try to hit them (step 3). If the jammer always still passes and often surprised the blocker, they've mastered the move.
