I think the Power 3s was the one that I was really nervous about, but I made it through without any major problems

YAAAAY!! Congrats flying~camel!!! (And jealous too, since I've already taken the test last year and was far from passing the test. And yes, those forward power 3's are what's keeping me from testing for the longest time too...)

I'll be joining the lot of you guys who are planning to take the Bronze Moves test this year. Mine will likely be in the Sept/Oct timeframe though... (after the regionals deadlines...)

I'll join this club (The Power 3's-Challenged). That's probably my worst of the moves. The BO to FO transition on the 5-step gives me fits, too. I took a big splat on my knee practicing that last night. I also realized that I need to pay more attention to the lobe pattern on the 5-step and back perimeter - I'm way off the "red-dot line".

Even if/when I pass moves, it'll probably be a while before I'll be able to take FS and actually pass - the backspin and I don't get along.

Way to go, flying~camel!!! Bronze is pretty tricky, with those power 3's. You did great, I'm sure!

How long until the freeskate test? IOW, make sure you get your butt to Dallas!
