Re: [IJS] Re: Spin

I have purchased PIC skates, and I simply love them, I tried 5 of the 6 ice
jumps: Toe loop, Salchow, Flip, the Loop am having a little trouble with; the
axel I am still not so sure its a little bit intimidating. With my other
in-line skates I was able to spin on two wheels, left front and right back
one, I could bring my arms up, move them down, and obtain a very good speed,
and keep it for at least 30 seconds; with my PIC skates is not so easy. What
am I doing wrong? I have watched the video that came with my skates and seen
how they spin on one foot, I have done on the ice not so lucky now.

I am trying to put a little number together and hopefully make a demo tape,
and forward it to "Rolling Thunder" the new Robin Cousins' show. Do you have
any tips?

Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide me.

A true skate fanatic, a die hard.
