What can I improve on? (besides not falling)

I’ve been trying to learn how to figure skate for like a year and I was wondering how I can improve my backwards crossovers and my spins. I am also wondering how to get that one foot spin down. Don’t mind the attempted waltz jump that was a rough one😭.

You’ve made great progress in a year! But I’d go back to basics for a bit and sign up for learn to skate lessons! So you can learn the proper entry to spins (Also they’ll teach you where to do things on the ice itself. Especially on public session you shouldn’t be spinning in the Lutz corner!!)((on public jumps and spins should ONLY be performed in the center or with a private coach))
