after she started landing it consistantly. Today it was BACK! Dd landed it 10 or so times and even landed a couple loop-loop's! She was a happy girl and danced on the ice after she successfully landed those jumps! She's been frustrated with not landing them lately so she was happy to land them. YAY!

It hurts to watch your dd/ds become so frustrated over an element that she has completed so many times before. They know they can do it, but cannot understand why it's just not happening anymore. My dd is experiencing this problem on and off right now with her 2sal. One day she will land 10 out of 12 very clean. A few days later she's lucky to land 2 out of 10.

isakswings, my dd does that little dance when it all comes back too. And that just makes me feel so good for her. Hooray for you and your dd!

It was fun to see and is a main reason why I try not to miss any of her lessons. :) She also landed a couple loop-loop jumps and attempted to do a loop-loop-loop. She didn't land all 3 loops but came close. It was fun to see the smile and the dance that came with the success of landing them.

Hopefully your dd's 2 sal becomes consistant soon! It's hard seeing them frustrated! I do wish I had my video camera with me yesterday tho! Those loops would have been fun to record.
