Edges, FO8, BO8

 My figures lesson with Danette on the 8:30 a.m. FS at Chandler.  Not as crowded as last week, and ice was somewhat better.

Today's lesson:

  • edges -- As usual w/no warmup, the FO edges are not great.  The rest were okay.
  • FO8 -- Mmph.  Most of our lesson.  Still working on posture, and getting a better push.
  • BO8 -- These are actually improving.  In particular I'm doing a better job of keeping the free foot close and not going into 'landing position' though it is a real struggle.  Eeep.
