Ice Skating Competition
Diane Zhou had her second ice skating competition on May 19th! The name of the competition was Spring Jubilee, held in San Jose. Diane was doing two programs this time, and her first one and 3 o'clock was the artistic program.
As time went by, it was almost 3 o'clock. Before putting her skates on, Diane found out that the rink was 30 minutes off schedule! She walked around a little more and put her skates on later. Soon, she put her skates on and had her warm-up, which went great.
Diane was 3rd to skate, so she waited. Her turn came and she glided onto the ice. The program went well...besides the jumps. “I guess jumps are just really hard,” Diane told GWN.
But it's not over yet. Diane still had the technical program. This program was at the North Rink, which wasn't much behind schedule. Diane had to skate at 6 o'clock.
The warm-up went well again, but of course, that wouldn't count, as she learned before. Diane's coach helped Diane stay focused. Diane was sure she could do well.
Diane smiled as she took the ice. Her fast music started. No! She fell on her first jump, but she remained calm. Yes! Landed the next two jumps clean. After the footwork, the combination jump. One jump landed...landed the second jump! The last jump was nearing...land! And Diane made it a combination jump to make up for the first fall.
“I was really happy with my first technical competition,” Diane told GWN. “My dad said 'You really just 'skated' for the last ten seconds.' because I really attacked those jumps in the last ten seconds. In the end, I placed 3rd out of 10!”
