  • wow... such amazing improvement. Keep up the good work! A few comments if I might...

    1. Clue to beginner skaters: most of the timing issues and what looks "different" has a lot to do with Kevin's arm swing. Stark contrast. In the first, he's not really sure what to do with them, but in the second they are helping create a solid push.

    2. Left foot is still "late" in turn, or set down too soon, because the left hip is not driving "in" to the turn.

    3. Bobbing in straight. Power loss

  • @jeterml Thanks Mark! Lots to work on in the corners and still not too comfortable so lots of bobbing. Agree with all the points and appreciate you taking the time to post. Cheers! Kevin

  • @brucehudson Keep it going Kevin! You are so talented (especially walking down stairs on your hands). Although that won't help your corner, the proprioception must help with learning technique so quickly. I struggle some of the same things. We all do. If you are ever in Milwaukee, I look forward to meeting you and doing some laps real-time. Jeter

  • @jeterml Thanks for the kind words Jeter - will be sure to reach out when I am in Milwaukee (not planned for this year but perhaps next!). Appreciate your support and wish you all the best on and off the ice :)

  • Amazing!

    I feel so INSPIRED by you`re work!

    Looking foreward to se how far you can reach! ;)

  • @urdaasa Thank you! Excited to see what this season has in store. Long way to go!
