    I'm freaking amazed since I haven't worked on it in months.
    And I got on the ice tonight and did it twice!!

    It's times like these that make me proud to be the only male figure skater in our club :icon_bigg

    Good on you, I don't know what landing on your axe is but must be some complicated figure.

    I love ice skating, look like a windmill and spend most of the time on my backside but hey, its all good fun.

    I love watching the figure skaters, such grace, such balance, SOOooo different from me:icon_sad:

    Good on you...I don't know too much about figure skating, so you'll have to tell me what an axel actually is at some point...I definately know the feeling when you've tried to do something for so long, and you finally do it, like when I used to do gymnastics, when I did my first soumersault (wow, is that even how you spell it?) and it felt so good aftwerwards

    Congrats, and Im sure you will do many more
