Artistic Figure Skating Program (2007 Christmas Show)

Yeah. I know there are loads of technical skating errors in this program, and even though I completely missed the half flip, did the world's tiniest loop jump and 'crouchest' sit spin, all those elements were the first time I've ever performed them (as well as the back spiral).
However, I had the time of my life performing this! If you've never skated to a great rock 'n' roll song...give it a go! Sometimes it's a welcome change to skate to something other than the usual 'pretty' pieces.
Music: "We Close Tonight" by my all time favourite band The Who.

Thanks, bbyiceyxxx!

I still cringe when I see the crouchy sit spin and tiny loop, but it was such fun to skate to a great rock 'n' roll piece, and with no judges, we all let down our hair that night and skated for the pure fun of it.

Thanks k9!

I'm lucky...I have a coach who is really wonderful at choreography, and doesn't let me do anything too difficult, lol!

Thanks morgail!

Admittedly, I don't think 'rock 'n' roll' really suits my style, but it was a huge amount of fun, and I got quite fit preparing for this program, by trying to keep up with Keith Moon's machine gun drumming...phew!

I love your energy and all the artistic touches! Especially what you did with your arms on the lunge. So much fun! :)
