LOL!!! I heard the same McAfee use to hire engineers to create viruses to infect files so we can "sell" an antidote. It's a good story, but trust me, it's far from the truth!!! LOL!!!

(Disclaimer: I was a former McAfee employee...)

Thank you for the support, you guys!!!

This is exactly what I did my very-first time, skating the Bunny-hop:
"going as fast as you can & alternating feet each time". no less yelling "Weee! This is soo much FUN!! "

While my coach was having a canary, lol with: "stop! STOP!!"

me: "oh dear, what am I doing wrong now?, pray tell"

she: "You're supposed to learn them, on 1 foot, 1st. But you are getting good height, on about a third. Good!! "

Aah, I luved being air~borne! (sorry, I don't know how else to type the wonderful feeling inside me that session). I treasure that.

Thanks Leda, for letting me share some of my joy...

I was working with someone on these this morning (I do so agree, they are totally evil - mine, even after all these years, are dreadful!). The secret is to BEND YOUR KNEES. No, more than that..... This is the first move you learn that you really need kneebend on.

As for bunny hops, I rather like going down the rink doing them on alternate feet, too, and I once made the Husband do them in a step sequence we were doing. Well, one on each foot, for a step sequence, of course, but even still. Sort of like skipping on the ice.... fun!
