Coach Poker--See, Raise, Fold

"Do a forward outside 3," Dance Coach said.

I did a perfectly respectable one with extended leg to a landing position.

And now begins a game of Coach Poker.

Dance Coach raises me a power 3.

I see him, then raise him doing three of them in a row--and then in the other direction. Scooorrre!

Dance Coach shuffles the metaphorical deck and has me do back crosses. I see him and raise him by doing crosses alternating between clockwise and counter clockwise.

Dance Coach raises one eyebrow, sees me, and raises me back progressives.

I see him with good edges and arm position.

I'm ahead. The chips are all in my pot.

Dance Coach starts a new hand. He opens with 5 step mohawk. I see him and raise him with good extension. He sees me, and raises the stakes.

"Inside 3 turn."

%*$@!  I fold.

In the end Dance Coach holds all the good cards

Laser Eyes

You all know it and recognize it. The laser eyes on ice. Here's some samples.

My laser eyes at the teenage hockey boy skating through the center on public

Competing skaters on freestyle

Dance Coach's laser eyes as he tries to mentally transmit
skills to me from across the rink over the sound of the music

The laser eyes the russian coaches give me the first time they
see me on a freestyle; crushing the delicate butterfly wings of my
tiny skillz

No, I don't know why the russian coach is carrying an M4 Carbine.  But it can't be good for me.

And Finally

I spot some open ice on public. Power Threes! Woohoo!
