Hi! I have a problem with backspin entry, frequently my free leg stays behind instead of going to the front. I can’t achieve open spin position. On good days, when the entry works better, I’m able to spin steady 11-14 revolution, but when the leg stays behind the spin doesn’t happen at all. My coach showed me some exercise to deepen the three turn but I don’t see any progress. I can’t figure out what mistake I make, maybe someone had similar problem and knows a solution?
I’m rather advanced adult skater ( for my 46 years of age), I do feel secure on the ice, me edges are deep, but I have some technical problems with more advanced spins. My second nightmare is falling to much forward on camel spin entry, even when I arch my back like crazy. There are days when the entry works and I can easy go into combination with sit spin. So I know I’m able to do good backspin and camel but I’m not consistent enough. I can’t figure out what causes my mistakes, why it works on some days and it’s a total disaster on other days. I’m so frustrated!
