@ItsEmmalicious just about 4 yrs. im kinda in a rut now. I mean my salchow s good/decent form stand stil but with speed ew. toe loop is fun! but not as good as it should be. I used to skate 2 lessons a week then i had synchronized skating practice once a week and i practiced 3 times a week for about 2 hours. Now i'm in college down to 2 or 3 times a week. no synchro and 1 lesson a week. lookin for a new job to help pay dues have gone up in price. But i love it. i skate when i can. whats ur stry?
well i started skating when i was 3 or 4 & skated for a year & then i moved & didnt get to start back up till i was 11, so non stop ive been skating for 4 years
@ItsEmmalicious nope, tried it, barely got off the ground. Oh well, i'll keep practicing my half flip. It was probably b/c i didn't get much height with my toe pick. Practice that half flip and i bet with practice i'll get it.
@ItsEmmalicious cool! Thanks! stag sounds a bit easier, so that's why we get taught half flips, i was curious cause theirs no half toe loop or half salchow really.
@ItsEmmalicious oh! I might be able to do a small one tomorrow at the rink with some practice. My coach isn't teaching me that, we're just making sure i have a solid base in the single basic jumps before i attempt height or anything harder. Just practice and the coach telling me what i'm doing wrong. Would u believe i get nervous over forward left cross overs? yep, 4 yrs later and i still get nervous with them. lol. My catch spiral is more like mid back to shoulders. Not vry graceful lookingXP
@LiveLaughLove8489 well that sucks that you cant skate as much as you use to, if that happened to me i would probly cry lol

@LiveLaughLove8489 lol its ok im not to graceful eather
have fun with split jumps, you could also try a stag jum, its a split jump but you bend your front leg so you dont have to be as flexible
