FO8, FI8, BO8

 My figures lesson with Danette on the Chandler Ice Cafe.  Nice ice and about 10 skaters.

I warmed up with edges and then scribed circles.  I had not skated patch for like 3 weeks so a little rusty, mostly on the FO8 edges.  Not bad though.

Today's lesson:

• FO8 -- Not so great.  Danette had me do them on my scribed circles, and then a random layout.  Had some issues with circle size, and I have some balance problems pushing onto the LFO; I tend to break at the waist a bit and be off balance.  Need to lock my core more and get down into the ice a bit more on the push.
• FI8 - better.  Again, scribed circles and layout.  In general these are just better.
• BO8 -- surprisingly not too bad.  Again, scribed circles and random layout.  I need to remember to flex the foot/ankle more after I pass the arms (while returning to center) so I have better control.

All in all not bad, especially for being off for a bit.
