Perseverance

I skated the 6 p.m. FS. As usual it was fairly crowded, I think about 16 skaters and 6 or 7 coaches. I had a pretty good skate, working on program elements. My waltz jump -- waltz jump is improving; it's amazing how getting some lift in your arms can improve the whole thing! Didn't try putting the side toe hop in, but did practice it a little bit. Also worked on the RFI3 thing for the program, some half flips (almost fell on one, slipped off my toepick... eep!). Spent some time working the darn back 2-foot turn against the wall and that seemed to help; I'll need to work that more.
