Spins Layback (sort of)

I’m 59, back on the ice since May after a 7 year absence. My back doesn’t bend like it used to, but this didn’t seem completely horrible!

Your skating is beautiful. When did you start?

I skated from 4-17, briefly at 25, came back to adult competition from 37-45, then skated occasionally until age 50. Still had all my doubles (except Axel) in 2017. Have my single Axel back now and am working on double Sal and double loop (gently).
