Hi guys--
I am considering entering the freeskate portion of my next competition, which would be early April. I haven't entered freeskate before (only done compulsories and jump/spin events) and I feel I ought to do this at least once before I test Bronze sometime later this year. Obviously, this skate would be at the pre-bronze level.
My question is, how many elements might I wisely fit into a minute, ten-second (70 second total) program, how many jumps, spins, etc. I skate with decent speed and solid edges. I would think this would be enough time for me to have at least one combination, two isolated jumps, and two spins, maybe a small footwork pass. My hardest combo would likely be sal/loop, while my spins would likely be camel and attitude, my two strongest.
