Patch Perseverance

I skated the Chandler coffee club for patch practice today.  Warmed up with the Preliminary test, then spent about 20 minutes on waltz-8.  I actually had a few steps-forward that were much better; but not consistent!  Grrr.

Went on to work on BO8 (bad at first but got better), serpentines (actually made it around (barely) the first 1.5 circles) and finished up with 3s to center (ugh -- but the 3s themselves were better).  On the 3s I was making myself really lean into the edge before the turn and it really helped.
