For those of you still on YouTube: What are you up to these days? If you're still skating (or even if you're not), I'd love to hear about your progress in the comments!
My axel was well and truly back in business today, and it felt amazing! All of my hesitancy from the past few practices was just gone, and the jump felt natural again. If you're a figure skater you'll understand what I mean when I say it felt like flying. :)
I moved on to my first double salchow attempts in about 3 years - obviously a LOT of work to do there, but I'm ready to train hard for it.
Spins are starting to feel natural again too, especially camel now that I've re-worked the entry.
