Spread Eagle - axels, camels double axel fails and triple salchow attempts. :)

Three videos in three days! :)

www.rinkside-blog.blogspot.com

Well, today was fun! I worked hard on my camels, trying to get that tricky outside edge, because I suck at them. :) I think they improved a little, though they still look ugly.

I did more failed double axel and triple salchow attempts. For some reason my 'big' jumps always seem to work better in the afternoons, rather than the mornings.

Enjoy!

I WANT YOUR CAMEL!!

This video makes me want to skate so bad! The end was funny. lol.

[bondanoz]

your camels are amazing! :) it doesn't look like you're checking your 3 turn on your salchow... try holding your back inside edge with your free leg held behind for a bit longer.. might help your takeoff a bit so you can get more rotation in the air :)

[TheFrenchxkiss]

Hi ! :)

at how old did you start to skate? And how old are you in this video ?

[ItalianMini]

LOL I saw Zara...

And Christine...

LOL and Kathy!!!

How long you been skating?? You're pretty good!

Ew. I sound like such a novice. I've only been skating for about 2 1/2 years though... Even if I'm doing FreeSkate 3 :P

What's the name of this song?

[dancerfigskater4]

eeee watch your backspin position in your 2axel, you're wrapping a lot!

[Sk8ingWizard]

The change-edge camel is definitely coming along, but I LOVE YOUR REGULAR CAMEL. It's so amazing--mine sucks really badly, I want it badly. It's beauuutiful

[couragemydear]

you are so determined! I think that the reason your double axel is not working is because you are not getting enough height. You definitely have enough rotation as you continue rotating when your toe hits the ice. You need to bring your free leg up more when you go into the jump so you have something to actually jump over :)
