Today I Learned A New Move At The Rink!

Today i got on for public skate . I got picked up from school so i had to change in the bathroom stalls. I put on my favorite sweat shirt its black, it has a figure skater on it, and it says go figure. I got on the ice. I couldn't skate around the rink because people were going really fast. I mostly just skated around until figure skating. When we got off the ice for figure skating to start and we stretched. Once the Zamboni was off we got on the ice.

In public skate there were these huge bumps off on the side of the ice and we were glad to see that they were gone. I skated around for a while. I told my mom i wanted to do a two foot spin so she showed me how. After a little bit i started to do it right. My mom started recording me i did it a few more times and finally i got it! I was so happy but then we found out her phone only recorded the end of it. I practiced for a while then got discouraged. After i did it for a while and finally got it back my mom recorded again and we got the perfect video!

My mom asked if i wanted to leave because there were only a few minutes left. I said no because i wanted to practice more. I tried to do cross overs but i couldn't so i went back to my 2 foot spin. Finally the buzzer went off and the Zamboni came on. We left the ice and i was tired i took my skate off and my toes were as hard as a rock because we'd been there so long and my feet get cold every time i just don't think of it or seem to notice it.

We came home and i got my spinner out my mom said "WAIT!" " don't do anything i want to record it". So she recorded me do my camel spin (she couldn't do it), a basic  one foot spin, and a sit spin (sort of). Off ice training is as important as on ice training. My mom said you only have two choices you either quit or you keep going

Below are some videos of me today at skating practice and off the ice practicing on my spinner.
