Still working on the double loop

Two days ago, I found a bunch of "long-lost" video clips my DH had taken on his camera when he was at the rink. It was taken on a February night this year when I was working on the double loop:


The jump is still under-rotated, though the last one (in which I fell) was closer to those I described in a more recent post, Loop Philosophy, where I, uhh, "cheat" it. The day will come when I "cheat" it so well it would be landed!

Anyway, in case you are wondering (rather, since it has already been uploaded), this is what my single loop looks like:

10-15 years ago, the first skating platform came to town.

I remember my sister in a shiny little dress, making loops in mid air while my mom says there are no sutable skating shows in my size..;-)

I wish I could skate like that. I tried skating once, but never tried it again. It was too hard.

Ah, how nice! My mom was a figure skater and I did some myself too but not like her, she was semi-professional (I don't try that anymore).

I still love watching it though so it's nice you have links to watch.

Sorry my comment isn't related to your skating, but more to your blog. I just started on Blogspot and have been trying to up load a YouTube video. Can you explain how to do that. You can contact me at d_m_hunt@comcast.net.

Thanks
