Program work

Wednesday, my coach and I worked on a footwork section for my freeskate. I think I might be able to do it by the time the first local competition of the year rolls around in five months. ;D The two most difficult moments are a left back outside rocker and a right forward outside counter, both of which are my best versions of these turns, but that doesn't mean I can do them without putting my free foot down. So I can either get better at them, change them out for easier turns closer to the competition, or make the two-footedness look deliberate rather than panicked. I'm hoping for option 1.
I'm using the same music I used for my first program (from the Amelie soundtrack), and this footwork pass will definitely be more complex than the one I did in 2016. I think the other skating skills-type things will also be better, like the choctaw into a back spiral. The jumps and spins will definitely not be better, but after years of not really skating due to boot problems + pandemic, I'll take what I can get.
On that note, I'm putting out a BOLO for my toe loop. Sigh.
