Okay, this is a loaded thread! I am thinking of putting a split jump into my current program, but haven't worked on one in a looong time. Is the best entry from a 3-turn, or from a mohawk? Any tips for getting more airborne?
Also, i am reaching frustration point. I purchased custom Harlicks several years ago, and they weren't right from the beginning. I had an injury shortly after getting them, so getting a refund was out of the question because i broke them in AFTER the timeframe for refunds. I struggled with the right boot, with pronation, etc. for a long time until now. I ordered custom Klingbeils and got them about 2 months ago, again being fitted by a Master Skate Technician. My right boot again is not right! I think it seems too long because it is not feeling "cupped" where the ankle/heel should be. When i look at the insole, it doesn't look to long though! What gives? I feel i have lost so much time on the ice because i have spent time trying to lace, relace, change inserts, and while skating being afraid of certain jumps (loop especially) where i was so good before! I feel i am regressing. I guess i'll try to call the guy and get an appointment again, but i feel i have lost sooo much time! Please send me some positive words!
