I Skate better than this, this is DUE TO A MASSIVE HANGOVER, notice the Pool of sweat on my shirt, that was accumulated in a 30 min lesson

You have nice soft knees which is a bonus

For the axel, you aren't getting the knee up action. Keep working on getting your waltz jump higher. Right now it doesnt have the pop up and therefore doesn't happen in the axel.

One word comes to mind: talent. I agree about the soft knees, but there is more. You are relaxed without being floppy. Hanging on to the initially shaky landings really shows a level of control not often seen in new skaters.

I'm sorry I don't know how to view this -- I usually don't have so much trouble. Is there another format?

Thanks -- I would relly love to see your video.

I think your best bet is to download it. You need QuickTime to view it, and that's available free from Apple.
