thats really good, get some speed though, that will make stuff easier. DONT WASTE YOUR TALENT KEEP GOING ITS A DIFFICULT SPORT BUT YOUR GOOD AT IT SO KEEP WITH IT!!!! :D
If it makes you feel any better, I've been skating for a year & a half & STILL at Freestyle 1 now... if that...actually between Delta & Freestyle 1 because I insisted on holding the wall for dear life last year & it slowed my progress. I'm watching this to try to get the half flip down, which I think may be the end of me.
Thanks everyone! I was trying backspins, I even got my blade moved recently and still can't do them - They are so easy on my kitchen floor I don't understand why they are sooooo hard on ice!
your half flip looks like mine. was the two foot spin to one foot a backspin? those are my enemy. and i'm finally not toe waltzing (at low speeds)-getting the pivot on its own was the key. i hate that pivot. thanks for showing me the stroking, i change the edge as part of the weight shift, but i dont bring my knees in quite the same. Your skating looks good.

Oh girl, please DON'T give up.
Skating is NOT as easy as it looks.
Be proud of yourself that you can do, what a
Lot of people wish they could. :)
Love skating and think how it makes you feel afterwards.
Good Luck :)
