4. Begin backwards one foot glides (both left and right)
5. Backward snowplow stop (pretty much mastered)
6. Forward slalom (mastered)
7. Forward pivots (Bonus Skill. Have counter clockwise but haven't tried clockwise in a long time to see how good I'm at it anymore)
1. Forward outside edge on a circle (both left and right)
2. Forward inside edge on a circle (both left and right)
3. Forward crossovers (one direction is far better than the other direction. Crossing my right over my left is the best side)
4. Backward half swizzle pumps on a circle (both directions)
5. Backward one foot glides (got both left and right)
6. Beginning two foot spins of up to 2 revolutions/spins (going counter clockwise but is unusual for a left handed person)
7. Forward lunges (Bonus skills, needs tons and tons of work on both legs lol)
1. Backward outside edge on a circle (both left and right)
2. Backward inside edge on a circle (both left and right)
3. Backward crossovers (unlike my forward crossovers, both directions are good)
4. Forward outside three turn (doing it on my right is doing well however can't say the same for the left leg lol)
5. Advanced two foot spins of at least 4 revolutions/spins (I can very easily get up to 4 rotations/spins so long as I keep my whole upper body under control, keep my weight in the right spot, get a good pivot into the spin, and don't hold back from letting myself spin)
6. Hockey stops (Needs tons and tons of practice, keep wanting to do the snowplow stop with the one skate lol)
1. Forward inside open mohawk from standstill (have attempted on my own, much struggles lol)
2. Forward inside three turns (I have "accidentally" done one when I was trying to do my forward outside three turns)
3. Moving backward to forward two foot turns (Haven't attempted yet)
4. Backward stroking (I can for sure do it but I find myself being lazy and only doing the backward swizzles and backward swizzle pumps lol)
5. Beginning one foot spin of 2 to 4 revolutions/spins (I have gotten 2 revolutions/spins when doing two foot spin and then lifting up my one foot for the one foot spin)
6. T-stops (Haven't tried these yet, may try them sometime on my own at a public skating session)
7. Bunny hop (Have attempted but struggling on this)
8. Forward spiral on a straight line ("Self taught", though isn't too much to it other than balance, coordination, and flexibility. I can do it with my left leg raised but I have to do a ton of work on with raising my right leg)
9. Shoot the duck (not actually shooting the duck. I haven't even attempted this yet)
