F8s, BO8

My figures lesson with Danette on the Chandler adult skate. Nice ice, about 9 skaters.  I warmed up with edges and scribed circles.  Despite being off the ice for a bit things were more or less okay.

Today's lesson:

  • FO8 -- the first one was not so great as I didn't hold my shoulder back.  In general I'm still trying to fix posture on these. Bleah.
  • FI8 -- not too bad, actually.  Still not getting around the circle though.
  • BO8 -- pushes were pretty good, but still working to keep the free foot close & not turn out of the circle when I move my arms.  Eeep.
