Yesterday I had Kevin take some videos of me skating:

Here's a one foot spin: Unfortunately, these are getting worse now that I am trying to go from crossovers.

A salchow:

A waltz jump combination:

And both sides of the pre-bronze 3 turn pattern (just 2 repitions each. He couldn't film on the long axis)

My videos still have my old 1 foot spin up, but I took down the old video of the waltz jump because youtube commentors are mean! But I'm most amazed at the jumps- I'm actually leaving the ground! Still, they have a long way to go. I thought the 3 turn pattern looked pretty good, but my waltz 8 (not uploaded because it was a horrible example, the worst I've done) was just terrible.
