Edges & FO8

 My figures lesson with Danette on the 8:30 a.m. FS at Chandler. Fresh ice! (previous sessions were cancelled & there was an ice cut before). 8 skaters. Good to be back on the ice again after 2 weeks off.

Today's lesson:

  • edges -- actually, not bad, really. Good work on the BO edges to keep free foot in front and not let it swing around.  BI were nice to.  FO a little rough but mostly okay.
  • FO8 -- eep. Some really issues holding a good edge, especially on the L side. Some flats and scraping, and not making it around the circle. Also issues with circles too large. Eeep.
After my lesson I worked briefly on FI8.
