Spins

My spins lesson with Lynne on the Chandler Ice Cafe. It was weird to be skating at lunchtime in my freestyle blades...  I warmed up with just a couple of laps and some 3s before we started.

Today's lesson:

• standing start -- ugh.  After a rough start I managed to start holding the entrance edge longer but I had a very rough time trying to get over my L side.  We spent 15 minutes (3/4 of the lesson) without a lot of progress.
• windup -- I did manage to get these almost as good as my standing start (not saying a lot) after some work.  I did manage a 2-rev spin, that was the best one today.

I'm kind of frustrated.  I'm so inconsistent!  I know it's in my head, I have a hard time settling down and not rushing.  Wishing for some kind of magic bullet on this... grrr.

After my lesson I ran through the perimeter crossovers and then worked a bit on power-3s.
