On The Edge... Again

The last time I skated regularly, you needed 2 pair of skates, a scribe and skated patch. Triple jumps were almost unheard of, so were Bielman spins. Twizzles were only done by ice dancers and Ronald Regan was just elected into office.


Fast Forward 32 years. Starting January 2, 2012, I am back on the ice doing something else that was unheard of .... Adult Figure Skating. We had "coffee club", which was like adult swim, but there was no opportunity for testing or competition.


It has now been 8 years since I got back on the ice. I have not competed since 2016 , but my blog is still going. My YouTube channel has over 1600 subscribers. That’s just crazy!

Here We Go Again......

No more excuses.  Back on the ice today.  Summer is officially over.  The only white I am wearing now is my winter white North Face jacket while I skate!

I figure it will take 3-4 weeks to get back in skating shape.

Today I kept it very simple:  On camera I did some crossovers, single jumps, scratch spins.  Off camera I did a back spin, started working on a camel spin, spirals and attempted all the Adult Silver Moves In The Field.
