Edges, FO8

 My figures lesson with Danette on the Chandler 1:15 FS.  Nice ice, 4 skaters.  I just had time to scribe circles before my lesson.

Today's lesson:

  • edges -- a bit rough.  We did the FO edges a couple times to get some better control.  FI were okay.  BO... we did a bunch of times, working on holding the skating shoulder back (esp. on L side) and generally having better control.  BI edges were... okay.
  • FO8 -- bleah.  Same issues as before.  I really need to find a way to get more ice time.
I'm going to see about getting my blades sharpened as I'm overdue.  Eep.
