Patch Perseverance

 I skated the 1:15 FS at Chandler for patch practice today.  No lesson as Danette has a conflict today.

I warmed up with edges, then spent some quality time on FO8, FI8, BO8, and BI8.  The FO8.... is weak.  I'm not making it around the circle and I feel like I'm not on a good edge.  The others were pretty decent, even the BI8 (small circles, but good flow).

After that I spent some time on FO3s. Yuck.  I really need to work on these with Danette as they are really bad.  Similar to my efforts with Holly but it's entirely different in patch blades.  Eep.
