In the winter I skate 2 a week (weekends) for bout 2hours (each time).. umm rite now I am doing spring skate.. which is 4 times a week (sometimes 5).. and then summer skate would be 4 times a week.

i suck...15..working on doubles, probably closest to 2loop. i also only skate twice a week in the winter season. and didn't pass any tests this past season *tear*
and i agree 96.23? .. i read stuff on here and im liek omg, i'm so terrible! lol

yeah i wanna do spring skating soo much but i swim too and that takes up most of the season bc its competitive and school dont ferget! but i will be doing summer and hopefully come back in the winter season even stronger

Hey inuk_shuk.. you don't suck! By the sounds of it you sound pretty good! Specialy if you only skate 2 times a week.. and thats not even subtracting the holidays.. way to go! Keep it Up! (*your the best* pumps fist in the air)

thanx fort henry rox!! lol *fist in air!*
96.23? .. i would take up another day but $$ is an issue as well..i have a sister who skates too so we've gotta split the $$ and such...
i also row spring and summer, so that doesn't leave much time lol. at least i'm doing something to keep in shape

thats true and i also think ur doing well axels and trying doubles from twice a week is really good!

It's nice to see some younger folks on the site .

I'm older than dirt (38), and have been back to skating for 1 year (did 9 as a kid). I have an axel, and am working on the double toe and sal (got hurt back in January, so just getting back now). I have a flying camel and a flying sit, as well as a combo spin. No layback, though, I'm terrible at them and always was!

I skate at Adult Gold level (kind of like Juvenile, but older, creakier, and with longer music ) and just did my first Adult Nationals.
