Edges, 3s

 My lesson with Danette on the Chandler adult skate.  Nice ice and 4 skaters.  First lesson, so no warmup.

Today's lesson:

  • edges -- urph.  Posture was actually not bad on FO and FI.  After that we worked on just pushing onto the B edge and trying to hold the skating arm/shoulder back and turned into the skating side.  Yow, this is hard.  Then we did BO and BI edges and they were mostly okay.
  • 3s -- eep.  We have not looked at these in a long time and they were pretty bad.  Yow.  Just doing them from the line.  Ugh.
