CONGRATULATIONS!!! Wow! That's soooo cool! At judges schools they keep telling us the Junior Moves are actually harder than the Senior Moves... they just expect the performance level of Senior Moves to be higher than on Junior. Hurray for you!

Thanks, everyone!!

jazzpants: Yeah, I was a little miffed about Novice Free, but I think it's a stamina thing. I don't skate enough to get my stamina up where I'm confident I can get through the program. Besides, I never thought I'd still be passing tests into my 20's, so I'm really grateful when I pass even one (and I'll admit that I really wanted the moves more than the freestyle since they're so darn subjective!).

Thin-Ice: What's strange is my last coach had a girl pass Novice Moves on the first try and then had to take Junior moves 10 times. I was just the opposite. Maybe the excessive work I put into Novice moves transfered over to Junior. Now I'm going to really have to pull out all the stops for Senior, because my presentation skills stink!
