Okay, today my backspin entrance was the best it's ever been, but now I have problems pulling in, LOL. Actually, that's not my main gripe in this post, but it's funny how my good backspin days never match up with good forward spin days...:(
I couldn't do a single forward spin today! :frus: When I swung the free leg around, sometimes the FO edge would get stuck, or other times I'd try to center myself and then topple over my left side. Other times I'd feel centered more or less, but when I tried to pull in, my right hip/shoulder would fall slightly. Actually, I didn't feel that, but I felt that my BI edge was pretty deep. I really tried to fix it, but I couldn't! I felt like crying! :cry: This happened last week too, but I just thought it was a one-time flop. I don't know what's wrong! They were (relatively) good before I left for college! I wondered if my skates needed sharpening, (I slipped right off the FO edge once...ouch..8O) but the edges feel fine. Somebody help! Even my sit spin was off today, and trying the camel was definitely out of the picture - I couldn't get on the flat at all.
What can I do to get my weight over my left side? I'm ready to try just about anything!
