Moves, Brackets, Spins

 My lesson with Holly on the Gilbert adult skate.  A bit crowded but good ice.  I warmed up with perimeter XOs and power-3s.

Today's lesson:

• BXOs to BO edges -- nice!  I love these.
• circle-8 -- I made it around!  Yay!  I had a really good push on the RFO and it was fine.
• 5-step mohawk -- okay.  I still think these are just a bit rough.
• brackets -- these are slowly improving.  Holly is now just letting me rest my hand on top of hers but not actually holding it.  She wants a bit more SNAP to the turn though.
• spins -- 3 pretty good ones and one not so great.  I'm getting better at getting my free leg in so it's mostly if I can manage to get over the L side correctly on the entry.

Still hoping to test in June/July.
