Perseverance

I'm back from my trip, and got on the ice for an hour this morning at Chandler.  I'd not skated in a week!  It wasn't that bad though.

I spent almost all of my time on Bronze Moves, and actually ran through the entire test from beginning to end in order ... which is, I think, the first time I've done that.  Eeep! 

• perimeter XOs -- okay, but my CW FXOs are pretty stinky w/no underpush.  Yuck.
• power-3s -- my worst move.  the LFO3s are almost okay, RFO3s are pretty stink and I lose the axis.  I worry about these a lot.
• BXOs to landing position -- kind of okay although I'm still up on my toe and I think I need to keep the upper body lifted more.
• circle-8 -- you would think these would be a cinch since I work on figures, but I have a hard time getting a good enough push in my freestyle blades.  Grrr.
• 5-step mohawk -- meh.  The pattern is okay and I'm relatively comfortable but there's no way I would pass me with my crappy hopped mohawks.

Lessons tomorrow w/both JJ and Lynne!
