Off-Ice Double axel attempts #1

Seeing as there was like no sessions at my rink for the past week..i decided id practice my double axels off-ice.

I cant do it on ice or off yet..and its driving me insanee..I just want to land it already on the ice atleast..

coincidently the closest one i did was the first one i attempted. But mum didnt video tape it for me because i told her not to thinking it would be really bad.:(

from that point on they then just went from bad to worse..

ahh its driving me insane!..0_o

one thing that will help off ice is doing atleast one sideskip into it instead of hopping

A very lonnnng time.. lol probably like atleast a year. They used to really scare me though so id only ever practice like 3 a week, (whenever my coach made me). I have been practicing them all the time now and i've been seriously working on it now for about 3 months though. :) thankfully the fear has gone a bit lol.

[starsesthetic]

lol yeah, id assume there really hard =). How long have you been working on them for?

[Sk8tinSpidermonkey]

I suppose...nothing has been as frustrating as double axels for me as of yet though.. lol

[starsesthetic]
