FI Edges


As usual, figures lesson with Kelli on the 6 p.m. FS. Like last time, I felt like Bambi on rollerskates in my patch blades. It did get better though...

We spent the whole lesson (yes, the whole lesson!) on FI edges. By the end of the lesson I was getting a much better push. It seems like I have to keep my weight more to the middle of the blade in these blades in order to feel like I have some control over where I'm going. Eeek. Much improvement, though, but I need to get some time in on the patch blades before my next lesson!
