Good edge and body position, must be an ice dancer. Maybe bringing the free foot forward in a chasse?

No, that won't be chasse, this is beginning of a spiral. Unfortunately the photo was taken too early and the poor duch didn't have time enough to lift it completely up.

I don't know . . . could be the entrance edge to a great sit spin.

Nice edge, perhaps taking off for a salchow?

:D:bow::lol:

Looks like it could be backwards outside-edge cross rolls too... :halo:

He's on an outside edge . . . maybe he's reaching back to pick in for a 3Lutz.

I'm afraid this duck is making the same mistake I kept making yesterday on my camel spin entry: letting the shoulders lead and get ahead of him instead of staying right over the hips and skating foot!

Clearly an unsuccessful shoot the duck!

Though it can be also beginner learning forward crossovers. I used to have such a weird habit of lifting one leg to drop it in front of the other, without realising that the leg could get in front of the other one easily if I leave it on the ice.

I just think you guys are SO funny. I needed a laugh today!

That duck reminds me of my nerves in my competition program. Legs aren't always quite under me, but i fight my darndest to stay up!

I showed the Big Guy this picture. He said,
"obviously, he's booted out!"

Well... The above duck is clearly into pair skating!

Here's the elegantly dressed female duck-skater doing an amazing spread eagle leading into an Ina Bauer...
