I'm still waiting to her whether we have a competition at the beginning of September (I hope so), as this will impact our training schedule. Either way, we are taking July "off", and working on our Level 1 Variation rather than on any competitive stuff.

However, as I think we need to rejig our free dance, as it has twice been panned by the judges, we also need to spend time working on bits and pieces of it to see what it looks like.

Goals For The Summer:
Jumps:
-Get nice height and consistant singles
-Land my axel
-Start my double salchow

Spins:
-Keep my scratch spin
-Try to straighten my free leg more on my sit spin
-Camel Spin(everything about it)
-Get my cool combo spin consistant
-Make my attitude spin even prettier
-Make up some cool looking spins and get them consistant
-Keep my flying broken leg spin(try to jump alittle higher and hold it longer)
-Try not to jump out of my backspin

Others:
-Choregraph my 'modern' artistic program
-Make it look pretty and unique
-Try to stretch more on my spirals..get free leg higher
-Make good use of my skating time
-Try to stretch my leg more on my beilman
-Get the more 'dancelike' moves consistant
-Perhaps start my 'spotlight' program
-Convince enough people at my club that we should have an actual theme to our show, rather than random numbers


I work 3-11 so Im lucky if I can skate consistantly once a week. I try for at least two times, so maybe my dad will allow me the car on my days off.
