Could an ice skater glide or slide across the ice if they were spinning at top speed and then stepped off the ice

When an ice skater spins at top speed, they generate a significant amount of centrifugal force. This force acts outwards from the center of the spin and helps to keep the skater on their feet. However, if the skater were to step off the ice while still spinning, the centrifugal force would no longer be able to support their weight. As a result, the skater would fall to the ice.

The amount of centrifugal force generated by a skater depends on their speed and the radius of their spin. The faster the skater spins and the smaller the radius, the greater the centrifugal force. This is why it is more difficult to stay on your feet when spinning at a high speed or with a small radius.

In order to glide or slide across the ice, a skater needs to generate enough friction between their skates and the ice. This friction is created by the skater's weight pushing down on the ice. When the skater spins, their weight is distributed evenly around their body, reducing the amount of friction between their skates and the ice. This is why it is difficult to glide or slide across the ice while spinning.

Can a figure skater glide across the ice if they are spinning slowly? Yes, but it is more difficult than if they were not spinning.
Can a speed skater slide across the ice if they are spinning? No, because they are not pushing down on the ice with enough force to create friction.
Can an ice dancer glide across the ice if they are spinning in a pair? Yes, but it is more difficult than if they were not spinning.
Can an ice hockey player glide across the ice if they are spinning? No, because they are not pushing down on the ice with enough force to create friction.
Can an ice skater glide across the ice if they are spinning on one foot? Yes, but it is more difficult than if they were spinning on two feet.
