I've been skating for eight years and most of the ppl at my level have only been skating for 3 or 4 am l a loser or what?

no skating is a hobby..good for you at least your not sitting around doing nothing

No you are not a loser. l think it is great that you are still doing something that you like.

l do not know how to skate at all. l admire your skill.

You r not a loser. It takes people different amounts of time to learn various skills in sports. Some pick things up faster than others. And another thing, u might not devote all of ur time to skating over the course of the 8 years. The others who have skated less time might have spents continuous days or hours practicing. Sont be discouraged jsut because ur skill level may not be as good as someone else. If u want to get better, keep practicing, dont worry about other people is ages.

no way, of course ur not a loser, cuz l can not even stand up on the ice, so u should be happy!!!!!!! : )

No! You have been playing for a long time. That is a good thing. You have a lot of expireince.

Hey, it does not matter how fast you progress. Ice skating is amazingly hard, and someone who is been doing it for 3 years is talented, but if you've been at it for 8 years, you must love it and you must be pretty darn good! Stop getting down on yourself. l envy you, since you oviously have stick-it-to-it-ness! Good luck with your skating.

no, u r not a loser because l have been skating for almost 8 years & there r people who r better than me who have only been skating for 3-5 years. l only just landed my Axel (a jump) & there r the people doing double jumps who have only been skating for 4 years. the most probable reason why they r better because they practice skating like crazy while l only skate once or twice a week (that is all l have time for) it does not matter what the other people r doing, it is all about u & what u think.

No of course you are not a loser! Different people learn at different paces. You may be at the same level as others who have only skated for a few years but you may be better than others in some areas of your skating. So do not feel bad, continue to work hard and get better than them.

No your not a loser. l ice skate and all the people in my group have been skating since they were probably 5. l started 2 years ago and l am jelous of those who skated more then me, they know those little things like, head up, make it look pretty. So do not be down. others might feel the same

nope you are a slow learner
