Just so proud of me. :blush:

Congratuations!!! Welcome to Skating forums!
-
Congratulations! I gave you some +GOE for that!
The problem with crossovers is once you have them 'perfect' your coach will change the standard....

+Goe, isn't that sense of accomplishment nice :)

What does +GOE mean? I live in Victoria, Australia and am unfamiliar with this expression. ???Does it have something to do with scoring in competitions?
Many thanks for the kind comments. I only started skating in July 2011. ;D Loving it so far.

Congratulations! Crossovers are one of the things that surprised me about learning to skate versus just watching on TV. I never knew just how much they were used and had no idea there was a difference between crossovers and stroking.

GOE is "Grade of Execution". Under the international judging system all elements start at 0 and the judges can give you up to +3 or down to -3. On the boards, under your name there is "GOE"- people can click that when they like your posts, it is just a silly thing for us. (And you can't see which posts it was that people "liked", but most of us use it as a way of saying "great job".)

Thanking Skittl1321 for the GOE info. :)
Next trick - get my research stuff moving ahead like the crossovers. Hoping it takes less time.
