Figure Skating Stimulation Possible?

Hi Guys,
I am new to OpenSim, and I am currently working on a project about figure skating jumps. What I want to do in OpenSim is to input joint coordinates extracted from 2D videos and maybe use forward dynamics (I am actually not very sure if it is the right approach) to stimulate the jumping process.
Most of tutorials I have watched focus on walking or simple movements. I don't know if it is possible to stimulate complex figure skating jumping process in OpenSim--- I don't really need very complex muscle or force analysis along the way, I just hope to stimulate the movement. This maybe a very dumb question, but I truly appreciate your help. Thank you!
