New: I did a 3 rev back camel!!! That was pretty cool. I learned a cool entrance into my back twizzle. It's like doing a back three turn from a loop entrance while doing a roundhouse kick. Then I bring my free leg in as the twizzle happens. That's the best way I can explain it. It took a few dozen tries but I got the hang of it. It looks pretty cool too. I like learning cool stuff like that. It makes edgework fun.

I almost landed my double axel. I had it and then I fell out of it. Man I am so close. I tell ya when I finally land this jump, I'm going to post a thread in all caps.

Axel-loop combination is pretty solid. I'm still having to open up a lot on the loop jump to prevent over-rotation. I gotta slow down my rotation on the landing of the axel so I can have a better air position for the loop.

Old: For the life of me I can't seem to center my forward scratch spin anymore. My back scratch is great but the forward one travels like crazy. I think I'm rushing the entrance and rising in my skating leg too soon.
