THanks. Waltz jump, half flip (I hate that jump) and two foot spin.

I wish the salchow was on FS 1. It's so much easier then a half flip.

Thanks. I didn't think I would pass. I've been having a bad few weeks with skating. But I did it. So yay!

As far as I know, half flip isn't taught here until you need it as a connecting element. I don't like salchows - mine tends to go round and round on the ice and hop backwards. I'd rather do a cherry flip (toe loop), any day.

How do you figure that?
I find that it doesn't get much easier than a alf flip...

I'm thinking for me the first jump I ever really learned was a salchow, so that's probably why. I just not a half flip kind of girl.

CONGRATULATIONS!!
The half flip is probably just too easy that it trips you up. You are probably a FULL FLIP kind of girl!
