Ok, there's one major issue in your skating. You have no power! Push on those blades and go. You are moving very slow and it's hardly allowing you to do moves. Work on power pulls, if you can do them if not learn, and get that rip sound.
country now!! LOL AHAH ohh and nice attempt on the Y spin LOL FAIL. HAHA anyways I like your spirals. They're so controlled but just try to straighten your leg more. My spirals suck xP anyways Bye Lydia!
Try to straighten your legs on your spirals. I have a problem with that too. My coach told me that would keep you away form a good camel. Anyway, Great skating!
yep, I'm still stuck with the Mark IVs. :/ I'm trying to find the best price on the coronation ace blades before I buy them, so it could be a while. x0
Well, I'm a n00b when it comes to boots, so I can't help you there. :P But as far blades go the coronation ace blades seem like a good fit for doubles. (well, not that I can even do any doubles yet, but ya know what I mean! xD)
sasha! RECOMMENDATION. do not get jackson ultima lights. always stick with john wilson blades. they're so much better. i had jubilee's and they were great and now i have ultima lites. and there just...ugh. for boots, if you have a wide foot and you need a bigger toe box go for jackson's. i just got my second pair last week. really expensive. (mine were $500) but really worth it. if you have a smaller width wise foot riedells are ideal. :)
Hmm I think you should push more; get more speed etc. get your new boots and get ready to go! :)!

My spins are kinda bad right now because of blade problems, but I should be getting new ones soon, so no more excuses for me. :P

Your spirals are so nice and controlled. The big FAIL when you tried to do the y spin cracked me up. At least you tried it! :)

On your scratch spin, make sure your arms are BELOW shoulder level. I have a HUGE problem with that too. Maybe it's a Russian thing? :P
Nice lutz!
Looks like you have a knack for back sitspins by the way! Are you doing all of this on Jacksons/Mark IVs? God I hate those things. D:

I have Mark IVs too...they suck. I want new skates and I'm trying to quiz everyone on what they think I should get. :)

And try doing a lot of "shoot the duck" to get lower on the sit spin.. keep improving.. as always :D
