My adventures as an adult male figure skater in Tucson, Arizona Portland, Oregon Chandler, Arizona.
I skated the Chandler Ice Cafe for some freestyle practice. I spent 30 minutes on moves. Mostly okay, though I'm still struggling on the circle-8.
After that I spent 15 minutes on spins and jumps. I had some pretty good spins! One almost okay salchow, the rest not so much.
