Perseverance

I skated the evening public at Arcadia for some practice.  Just like last week, the first 15 or so minutes on the ice were awful... felt like I could barely skate.  Yuck.  It got better though.

I worked on most of my drills.  The edge drill is getting better.  Toward the end I tried a spin from windup and while it was just two revs it was nicely centered.  Weird.

I met an adult skater, Emily, and had a nice chat.  She's only been skating for 3 years but has a solid forward spin and the beginnings of a good backspin.
