Felt like skating today. Went to the outdoor rink. The ice feels really different - much harder. I worked on just the basics: Edges, crossovers, mohawks, and a few lousy FO3s. Ok, so maybe a couple of them were good. And crossovers felt really good! My spins have gone missing, though. It may seem crazy, but I think the sweet spot on my blades got sawed off when it was last sharpened.
Skating outside is wonderful, but people walking by like to stop and stare...and I'm a bit bashful... But the weather was great, and nothing beats skating in mild fall weather during sundown.
Two weeks and counting until I get my Competitors...
About Me
- Rookie on Ice
- Utah
- I am attempting what I thought was impossible: learning to figure skate as a 23 year old adult. I took my first class as a credit filler in college. I wanted to take more classes, but school and work took up too much time. After graduating with a BSN, I've returned to the ice, first taking group lessons, and now private lessons. I am absolutely addicted to it!
