Perseverance

 I skated the Labor Day adult skate today for freestyle practice.  Good ice, but a bit crowded -- 15 skaters.

I warmed up with stroking -- I'd not skated in my freestyle boots for like 3 weeks! Eeep.  After that ran through perimeter stroking, circle-8 and BXOs to BO edges.  Not that bad, actually.  

After that I worked briefly on 3s and mohawks, then went on to work on jumps and spins.  A couple of decent waltz jumps, a number of salchows (only one was good), a bad toe loop and a number of spins, including a couple of good ones.  It was good to be on the ice again.
