All the things!

Practice this morning and I literally worked on ALL.THE.THINGS. 

Moves - Here I am, rededicating to working on Field Moves during every practice! I started with the Forward Double 3 Turns. Yesterday, when I was working with Christopher on these, he suggested picking a hockey circle and doing them there to get the lobe size consistent before putting them in the pattern. So that's what I did! I worked on FO-BI on both feet and FI-BO on both feet. I don't know if anything improved but I know I'll see progress eventually if I just keep at it. I also did some of the BO-FI backward double 3s and those were eww. Again, I know they will improve over time but they were really gross this morning. Yikes. 

Free Skate - Again, I ran this facing where the judges will sit. Everything went as planned except I double footed my loop jump (stupid broken down boots!). I really need to schedule time to visit my "dealer" and get fitted for new boots. My current boots are at an almost dangerous level. I was doing a backward catch foot spiral the other day and could feel the rubber coming off between the heel and the blade. That can't be good! He's not close by so I'll need to take a day off work to make it happen. Ugh. 

Silver Compulsory Moves - Oh hey, this is nice :) 

Free Dance - Oh hey, this is looking pretty snazzy as well (now that I've got the new choreography figured out). 

Swing Dance - I spent quite a bit of time working on some exit choreography. I think I'll step forward from the end of the pattern into a pretty one foot glide with arms, into a twizzle, right into an attitude spin, and finish off with a pretty end pose. That should do it.
