"Letting go" (Freeform Freestyle?
) is my USUAL mode of skating. When someone else's music comes on, and I like it, I just start doing what feels like the music tells me. The same thing happens with a catchy tune during a public session. I just can't help it.
In my case, I find myself doing footwork instead of jumps (I don't jump that much anymore). As an example, I remember when I was learning brackets, I found myself doing RBI brackets at full speed without thinking during public sessions. I could barely do them in the moves pattern when practicing, but I was caught up in the excitement of the music and the energy of the session. They just
happened. I'd reflect on that after the session and wondered how I could take a move that's normally tentative, and just do it at speed without thinking.
In some ways, it's undisciplined of me because I've stopped taking lessons, however this way of skating is genuinely FUN. If I couldn't just "groove" with the tunes and let my feet do their own thing, I'd stop skating. I DO think it's another avenue to acquire skating skills, and many people neglect it entirely.
