My phone was not charged as I ran out of the house to grab some ice time Thursday evening.
Practice was all over the place, but I have decided to start thinking I should attempt to learn an Axel one of these days... this snippet of a backspin was a prelude to a backspin-jump ... a kind of Axel prep exercise I see the kids doing.
I have not begun working on an Axel with my coach Berkley yet.. I think I should lose 15 lbs before I start putting my knee through that -
I wish my phone was charged. I had a nice chat with one of the men skating out there - who just happens to be one of the three judges that recently judged my Silver MIF test. He explained to me that had I tested as an Adult vs Masters - that I would have passed by the required passing score (at least according to his marks) That was good to know....
Then he tried to teach me how to do the Dutch Waltz !!! I never attempted a dance step before.
Harder than it looks folks! This video is not that... it's just my back spin.
