Adult Bronze Free Skate PASSED !!!

With a gigantic sigh of relief, I am proud to say that I successfully passed my Adult Bronze Free Skate Test today ... and with no re-skates required!  I am thrilled and relieved that it is over and now I can move on to bigger and better things - like Adult Nationals in April!!

Ask anyone who skates and they will always tell you ... "I could have skated better".  Today was no exception, but I did not fall and I did complete all my jumps, tiny as they were and all the necessary revolutions of my spins.  I could spend an hour nit picking at what went wrong, but I won't.

Here's what went right:






And here is my test skate:

  1. Yay!!!! Congrats, Diane! I knew that you would pass. You did a wonderful job and skated beautifully. Hopefully I will get to meet you at Adult Nationals next year. I just signed up to take my Adult Gold freestyle next month so I hope to pass with flying colors like you did. =)

  7. Beautiful! You have such a nice presence on the ice, and lots to like here, like your high spiral, pretty spread eagle, and very properly executed salchow. Will you be at Sectionals or just Nationals? I am thinking I will go to Sectionals--- don't even have my program choreographed yet, need to expedite that. We are in the same age category and I am also Bronze.
