Passed Novice Moves!!
Hey everyone,
If you read the practice thread, you saw that I was testing Novice Moves today...and I PASSED!! Passed over by all 3 judges. Had issues with the quick rocker/choctaw pattern, which I knew, and touched down on my first bracket-3-bracket pattern and had to reskate the 1st half of it. I have a feeling that coach is going to torture me with the rocker/choctaw pattern in the future though...oh well....now it's on to Junior!!! The goal is to pass those over the summer-ish to avoid getting caught in a funky limbo...

Wow, that's so fantastic!!
Congratulations!!Now that you're done, can you loan all of your moves to me? I don't need the CW quick rocker-chocktaw or brackets because--ironically--those are the only things I can do decently, LOL!
