Nice job on a public session to boot! :) If you try to pick straight behind your skating leg, instead of to the inside, your flip and lutz will get more snap. You've got enough height, but the rotation is too slow. You can do it!
the pathetic part is that that was a freestyle! however, this is just before the more "advanced" group classes begin, so tons of little kids come on. thanks for the advice. it's so true...haha yeah on lutz i CAN pick behind but i was having issues in this video, flip it needs work. it's a hard habit to break.
oh that's so nice to hear! i actually just learned both of those the day before this was taken but i'm testing prelim in a bit over a week and its been such an ordeal for me that i think i am just excited and motivated to be moving past it (i've had a back injury, so the spirals kill me haha). but i am planning to test pre-juve pretty soon, like probably june. i need to work on back inside threes though, i'm having toepick issues. thanks for that though!
and yeah, the wonky freeleg! it really just comes from months of not having the confidence and 2footing. now i can get it one one foot, but its more like a 2foot with the free leg a bit higher, position wise. i'm working on it though and actually, it's usually quite a bit better than the lutzes here, they were off that day.
thanks! okay now i owe you a comment but idk if i have time right now, but i will! haha i always feel bad when people leave me kind comments and i dont comment back :)
it's hard to tell but it looks like you are missing a tiny bit of rotation on your flip when you land. but it has amazing height! sitspins and camels are definitely improved since the last time I saw them!! woah that loop is nuts! i love it! your salchow is lovely!
the lutz is cheated but the flip is actually usually clean, i just have this wonky freeleg, so its impossible to tell, but i'm working on it. i just need to keep the freeleg in more....

Your scratch spin looks fine, I'm sure it would pass :D
Okay actually I can't be 100% sure because I don't know too much about testing, but it's looking good. So like, 99.9%? <33

Your power pulls and five step mohawk look great! Are you testing soon?
On the lutz, it looks like your free leg might be pulling out too soon...maybe that's what's stopping your rotation?
