Werkin' It Some More
My lesson with JJ on the 8:15 FS at Gilbert.
We continued working through the free skate. I ran it once without music and then again with music. In between we worked on a number of areas -- for example we changed the pattern slightly so that the lunge-3 was into the boards so that I come out and can go right into the alternating BXOs. The lunge-3 was much better today though, so that was encouraging.
There are still some real problem areas; in particular the footwork into the spin -- I have trouble remembering it/executing it and it's too slow; also from the salchow into the pivot seems to be a bit problematic. JJ reminded me I really have to squeeze out the extra steps I tend to insert -- they slow me down and get me behind.
