Yay! Well, you gotta start somewhere! I remember tripping all over the lobby of the Berkeley Iceland trying to learn how to do an axel off-ice. Now, start doing it on the ice!

Yeah, even off ice, it's so hard trying to complete the rotation without tripping all over the place. I can just imagine doing it on ice

Well done - and here's me proud of myself as I have landed all of two loop jumps (off ice and 2-footed, but it's a start!). I can't imagine how you get the rotation for more than 1 revolution, personally - mind you, I never shall!

Well done. I can't get the full rotation off ice even so I've still a long way to go. At least now you know you can do it off ice. You just need to take it onto the ice now!
