Moar jumps

Today I asked P to teach me jumps that are not loop jumps jumps I can actually do some half-jumps that are used as connecting steps and choreographic highlights, and she taught me the split jump and split falling leaf.

(Mine don't look like that.)

(Maybe after further practices this year week they will.)

Anyway, those are cool. I actually made progress on the hated loop jump too; I landed one that was only a quarter cheated instead of having basically no rotation at all. It was two-footed, but whatever. I think the hip release my PT did last time really helped with getting over the right outside edge for the takeoff.

I'm impressed that once again I have managed to stump P--which is really hard to do--this time with my back scratch spin, specifically the part where I overshoot the sweet spot every. single. time. and wind up on my toe pick, really kind of the outside edge of my toe pick, and have to set my free foot down and stop spinning after one revolution. Neither of us can quite put our fingers on what the problem is.
