I've downloaded it twice and got the same thing both times. The first few seconds plays, then stops with an error message about the file possibly being corrupted. Tried it in both WinAmp and WinMedia Player.

I'm sorry, doobedoo, I didn't ignore you on purpose--I haven't been to the rink this week due to work & ice going down, so I haven't been able to go through it to work it out. Doesn't work to do it on the floor.....

But it's not like a 14-step push, at least the way I'm thinking of it. Does Vesperholly's video help at all?

Thanks, Phoenix. I tried this exercise yesterday with this thread in mind, and still couldn't get it! In fact, messed them up. But never mind - they still work OK if I stick to my usual process. The place where I tend to lose power is on the second step of the mowhawk, but it's getting better!

Whoops! Has anyone else been able to download it?

I'll try to post a new version later tonight.

I was able to download it fine.

Sometimes those yousendit downloads require a special thing called a Codex in order for it to play -- mine came up as a Windows Media Player file.

So, okay, you aren't leaving your opposing arm in front as much as you had described and you still have a lot of control. I probably wouldn't drop that arm, but who knows -- if it works for you, why not -- plus it does kind of get rid of that "helicopter" look that we sometimes see.

I like these kinds of discussions because it makes me a better skater (hopefully) and also a more astute judge (also hopefully).

Thank you.

But have you played it? I download from yousendit all the time. The puzzling thing is that it starts. I think if it were a codex problem it wouldn't start at all. Will DL yet again.

The reason yours opened in Win Media Player is that you have that set as the default app for avi files on your PC. You can open it with any app you like by right clicking and selecting "open with".

The third DL was the charm. Guess the two previous somehow weren't clean.

I did... then again, I have a DSL line at home. (I know! I'm spoiled rotten... I want broadband cable at home so I can watch those streaming videos w/o it locking up once in a blue moon on me...)

Better to save to file on a disk, then play it from the copy on your disk!

Just about everyone now has either DSL or cable.

That's what I thought too...until I learned of at least three people on this board who still has dial-up as of now and they tell me I'm spoiled. (And I sure as heck was on dialup during my trip to NYC. My in-laws phone lines couldn't handle DSL either!)

We didn't even get DSL 'til... oh, 2004? Why? My neighborhood didn't DO DSL back 'til 2004. Seems it took a while to get thru the bureaucrazy JUST to put in fiberoptic cable in place of copper phone lines so DSL WOULD work!!! Now I want cable or T1 line!!! (THEN I would be spoiled rotten!!!)
