Most of the free ones on there are probably 2 or 3 years old, the dance ones are more recent (but I can still do the free stuff...just...)

It's from my carnival last year. I didn't skate to well since I was skating after four syncro teams. Also you can't see that well. It's been put into 4 different parts.

Thank you for the support, you guys!!!

I don't have any of me skating (not allowed to film at our rink), but I did do one the other day of off-ice spirals and splits and catch-foot spirals and stuff. I intend to take a new one before I put it on youtube however - preferably one when I'm not wearing night wear with holes in

I put my videos here. I don't have much up now, but I plan to keep a sort of video log of how I progress at my different skills.

Two videos recently taken of my first attempts at sit-change-sit & camel-sit.

I have some clips of my skating on http://www.youtube.com/me5149.

I'll have some more up once I get some good film of my axel or program.

Feel free to comment!

Here are my skating video's:

They are not particuarly recent because i have been off the ice since the 7th February with a broken coccyx.

Please leave me comments with any tips you may have.

TIA

How long have you been skating? Did you just start this year?

For your forward crosscuts be sure to have the arm that is closest to the middle of your circle behind you and the other in front of your heart. For example, if you were to be doing RFx, you'd want to have your left arm, shoulder and hand extended behind your body and the right arm, shoulder and hand in front of your heart as you cross your right foot over the left and then push under your right foot with you left foot and then push outward with your right foot. This way you'd get 3 times the speed with the same amount of work you were doing.

When I do my crosscuts as discribed above, It only takes me between 2 or 3 to get around a hockey circle quickly. If I want to go slowly, I just do one.

So to get speed and lean inward on the circle, the rule is: The arm that is closest to the middle of the circle goes behind and the arm that is on the outside of the circle goes in front. It doesn't matter if you're going forward or backwards.

As for your spins and jumps, work with your coach and he'll get them higher and stronger.

"Just Have Fun!"

I have to resist the urge to coach after watching videos.

What I'm really fascinated by is the rinks that everyone skates at. There was one rink, I think it was Muskoka skater, that could have been my Tuesday night rink. The mall rinks are interesting too. My favourite is Jazzpants rink. One day I'll get there. Actual windows!

Feel free to coach in a comment!

One of the things I learned a long time ago is to not give advice unless the person asks you for it. Some people get bent out of shape if you give them unsolicited advice.

hi CanadianAdult, if you have any comments about my video's, please feel free to post them, either as a comment on youtube or on this thread or you can send me a pm.

I have been skating for 5 months.

Thanks for your tips, i will try them out when im back from injury

Maybe it's just where I skate. Everyone comments on everyone else's skating. Good, bad, and everything in between.

That's true. On the ice rink, I won't comment on anyone's skating unless they come up to me in a friendly way and ask me for advice. The potential for getting misunderstandings and creating insult is always there if you just go up to anybody and give them advice, even if you're truly an expert in the field.

Here is one of my figures for the recent Pacific Coast Adult Sectional Competition - RFO-LB3 - I am really happy with them because I actually did it - 2 months ago I could not do a BI3 to save my life without putting my foot down or coming to a complete stop.

I am still skidding the BI turn a bit (of course you can't see that on the video) and have trouble with controlling the edge after both front and back turns:

I am completely impressed! I struggle with BI 3's unless I can pop it, to keep it smooth and controlled on a figures circle is admirable.

(I also like your serpentine, nice control on the edge change)

7am. ugh. Good for you.

Resist the urge to look at your spin tracings! (a HUGE bad habit for me)

Critical thing: I'd have you work edgy lobes on a line for a while, front and back to get deeper edges, it would help entrances into spins, 3 turns and crosscuts. Um, in the US I think they are basic consecutive edges
