How To Tell Apart The Figure Skating Jumps
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 02. 2022
- Hello Skaters! Welcome Back! I am so excited to watch all the figure skating during the 2022 Olympics this week! I know the skating jumps all happen so fast that it can be difficult to tell them apart. I thought I would give you all a quick break down of the unique characteristics of each jump, which hopefully will help you be able to tell them apart next time you watch a skating routine.
I would like to say a big 'Thank You' to Paolo Borromeo, who demonstrated doubles and triples for this video. Paolo is a coach here at Skatetown and was a member of the United States Figure Skating Competitive Team.

Don’t worry about what edge they’re jumping off of. Too difficult to tell.
Here’s a stepwise approach:
1. Is it toe assisted or edge entry?
2a. If toe assisted is it entered on a turn or a long glide straight back?
If glide it’s a Lutz.
If turn:
Off outside toe it’s a Toe Loop.
Off Inside toe it’s a Flip.
2b. If it’s an edge entry:
Feet apart it’s a Salchow
Feet crossed over each other, it’s a Loop
Jump facing foreword it’s an Axel
Hope that helps
Wow! I’ve watched countless videos without being able to really see it and then you laid out the clearest method I could have hoped for. Thank you! Now I just need to memorize it ;) (That said, this video is also the best I’ve seen on this yet so finding this helpful hint in the comments was icing!)
Omg! I'm saving this info. That clears it up a lot!
Time Stamps if your looking for a specific jump:
Toe Loop 2:12
Flip 3:30
Lutz 4:42
Salchow 6:30
Loop 7:56
Axel 9:08
I love the weariness about whether we'd see a quad axel at the Olympics. Yuzuru Hanyu is always finding his way into how-to-skate videos. 🤣
But Malinin found his way into history as the first to actually hit a quad axel. 🤣🤣
One of the best videos explaining this topic. Your verbal explanation, followed by single jump demo, and multiple jumps in real speed made me understand this finally. Thank you!
Great to hear!
One of the big problems that I have is trying to see how many rotations a skater does in a jump. They spin so fast! How can you differentiate a 4T from a 3T without slowing down the video?
Honestly, in my opinion, anything above 3 rotations is just not adding a lot to the sport. It is almost impossible to see the added rotations without computer aid, and it does a lot of damage to an athletes joints. Just my little pet peeve.
@@CoachJulia exactly what i think about anything above 2 rotations 😆
I can usually tell if that's what I'm focusing on. (I've recently been focusing on recognising the types but I can only focus on one thing at a time as it all happens so quickly!) But I'm not sure exactly how... Like, with 2T and 3T I can very-quickly-count how many times their face comes around, but with 4T there isn't time to count so I sort of absorb all the rotations and go by what number it felt like. Which may be my brain's shorthand for "too fast to count, must have been a quad". :-) Mostly I've found it's practice: I've watched a lot of old programmes on CZcams.
The difference in speed
Don’t worry, the judges can’t tell a difference either
Now that I’m coming back to this video, Iila Malinin has already landed a 4A in a competition… And legend has it that Yuzuru is practicing his quintuples
What an amazing feat for Iila Malinin!
Ilya. Lila is a female name.
when yuzuru hanyu reaches the depths of your soul and now you have to understand everything about figure skating. this is DEFINITELY one of the best tutorials out there
Awe. Thanks so much for the feedback! I am glad you enjoyed it.
of course his are so much harder because he starts from super difficult entry. slo mo i’m getting it but live action i need some work. i’ve been watching your other stuff for more detail
Hello Julia. I wanted to thank you so much for your videos! I come from Germany where figure skating is not a big thing and we rarely have possibilities to buy shoes and train in a big rink. I just started at 23 years old and I only have training once a week. German skating clubs do not get a lot of funding so they have no capacities to give us more training during the week. I am so thankful that I can take your videos to practice in normal opening hours of my rink! Many of my club members use your videos to practice… Thank you so much!
Hey, ich bin auch aus Deutschland und habe erst vorletztes Jahr so richtig meine Liebe fürs Eiskunstlaufen entdeckt. Ich fand es schon immer schön anzuschauen aber mich mehr mit dem Sport an sich auseinander zu setzen habe ich erst vor einem Jahr angefangen. Ich würde es auch super gerne selber machen aber dachte so mit 21 ist es vielleicht schon zu spät und bei mir in der Nähe gibt es leider keine eishallen die Kurse anbieten. Aber ich liebe ihre Videos und probiere vorallem jetzt im Winter auf den Eisflächen ein par Übungen mit meinen Freunden. Jetzt Fieber ich bei Olympia mit und habe mich grade sehr gefreut als ich jemanden in den Kommentaren von ihrem Video gesehen habe. :)
@@Sammy-gy3rx same here, bin als Fan schon viele Jahre fasziniert, aber habe diesen Winter angefangen (m/21). Dachte lange Zeit es wäre sowieso zu spät, aber nur weil im Profibereich alle mit 3-4 anfangen bedeutet das ja nicht, dass man danach gar nichts mehr erreichen kann. Gerade da die weltspitze in unserem Sport zumindest bei den Damen aus Kindern besteht, ist es immer total inspirierend von anderen erwachsenen Anfängern zu hören :)
Ich wohne glücklicherweise direkt neben einer Eishalle, seit ich ausgezogen bin. In meiner Gruppe sind viele in meinem Alter und die älteste ist Anfang 30. Wenn man es aus Spaß und Interesse betreibt ist es nie zu spät denke ich! Viel Erfolg euch beim verbessern! Dran bleiben :)
I have just a few minutes ago realised, after waffling on to my long-suffering mother about how darn good Adam Siao Him Fa is, after rewatching some of his performances, and! After 30 odd years of watching ice skating (the most recent being the Gangwon Winter Youth Olympic games! The skating this year... those youngsters really set the bar high! Amazing talents!), I had no idea how to tell what the different jumps were 🤦🏼♀️😂
It's pretty much the only thing I didn't know after all these years, and it never occured to me until now to ask "how do you tell...?”. I'm so very glad that I tapped this video out of all the others on Google, because I'm pretty sure I'd have had to watch quite a few to wrap my head around it. This is such an amazing video, it took what, 10 minutes of my time? I understood it all straight away, and now I feel confident in telling the differences? I'm pretty impressed, as I'm not very good at learning just by listening, but it was so simply put, and the visual demonstrations alongside... Also, Paolo was fabulous! Coach Julia must be one heck of a coach, if these 10-ish minutes are anything to go by! 🤩 Thank you so much!
Thank you so much, Julia, this is fantastic and really helpful! I will be referring back to it while watching the skating this week. :)
Glad it was helpful!
Love this video, thank you so much for making it. It’s going to be helpful watching the olympics!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This video is helping me a lot! Thank you for your detailed explanation!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Coach Julia! A great video to show my none skating friends the difference in jumps. Love you videos!!
Glad you like them!
Is there any way we can see a video on the technical requirements of ice dancing? 😊 thank you for this extremely useful video, perfect timing too! 😃
Great suggestion! I will see what I can do!
@@CoachJulia that would be so helpful 😊
Please do a video on how figure skating is scored :) I’m interested in learning about the breakdown of scoring!
I am editing that video right now!!! It will come out this week!
That was excellent! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love ur videos coach Julia
Thank you!!
Ilya, since this video has done a few clean 4Axels.
It is early in the new season, and i'm surprised he hasn't used it in his short program.
However, he has done major coached and balletic improvement and will be scoring higher in presentation, the main reason why figure skating is an always exciting , creative, novel sport.
Hanyu Yuzuru was the first to attempt it in competition, and it is he, now retired to who coach Julia refers.
Thanks for re-upload it coach, I was fun the first time though xD
😆 I am sure it was! I got a text from a friend and couldn't believe i'd made that mistake! oops!!!
Great video thanks
Glad you thought so!
Oh, you reuploaded the video with the names of the jumps :) it was just just funny with inset text here ;)
Great explanation of the jumps, are you going to watch figure skating competition at the Olympics?
Yes! I got a message a little bit ago from a friend saying that it was missing the titles! Oh gosh! What a mistake! I am glad you enjoyed the explanations. Yes, I am excited to see all the figure skating events!
Thanks for sharing! To me they all look so alike when i see it 😄 Now i know!
I know that the luxe is normally harder than the loop, but isn’t the quad loop harder than quad lutz? In the sense that very few skaters have it and it’s been the last quad that got landed for both men and women (except axel of course)
looks scary but awesome
Toe loop is my fave jump on side by side rollerskates
That's cool! It is a great jump and I can see why it would be really doable on quads.
Could we have a tutorial for yuzuru's pistol pose please? :)
Great suggestion. I will see what I can do!
Still, after explaining all this, when I saw the jumps at the end of the video in real speed, I'm able to say they are jumps! Haha! Everything happens so fast and my eye is not trained yet! Thank you for the breakdown. Also, I was wondering why there aren't more front jumps? Is it because, as you said, they are harder? Or there's another reason? 🤔
I have a question: When you did the single salchow in demonstration your free foot never touched back down on the ice (7:13), when the other skater demonstrated a triple, his free foot DID skim over the ice (7:48). I'm still working on my singles and my coach is having me skim my foot over the ice but most instruction videos I see online DON'T do that for singles. Why is this?
It is generally more 'clean' technique to leave the foot off. But many skaters do skim the ice on the multi rotational versions as it gives them a touch more power on the take-off. Just do your best to follow your coach's technique unless it is just not working for you.
@@CoachJulia I think I'll talk to her about trying it w/o my foot skimming. The moment my free foot touches the ice again my brain leaves my body. Everyone tells me salchow is so easy but it's the one jump I can't get XD.
@@charlie2.048 It is a complicated one. I've "gotten" it, but do have to work on my consistency and my timing. A year ago, I was putting my free foot in the ice (definitely not a "skim," either!) and at least I don't do that anymore. It did take me a while. Keep at I and good luck!
Will you make lutz and Axel tutorials? Because those are missing
We have toeloop loop flip salchow but no Axel and lutz video
I do plan on making tutorials for those as well!
Update: Ilia Malinin succeeded a quad axel this year at the Grand Prix finale
what was that jump/hop Paolo did before his flip jump?
Hello what kind of blade is excellent for figure skat in the world? Thank you.
I would just be happy with learning to even stand on the ice without falling down! Learning to skate would be a definite bonus! I remember seeing someone doing a backflip on skates... I always thought it looked amazing, but wasn't that move banned in the sport, because it was deemed to be dangerous?
Surya Bonaly did the back flip first, I believe. And, yes, it is no longer allowed in competition because of safety issues.
@@Roxxxaneee I was wondering who did that, but ya gotta admit, it looked pretty darn cool! Yes, safety is of utmost importance.
Back flips were banned long before Surya did hers in competition. The ISU stated that a back-flip could not constitute as valid because it could not be landed on one foot.
When Surya did that in an actual ISU competition, it was her way of "protesting" the ISU (she was mistreated a lot). Consequently, it was landed on one foot.
Most backflips you may have seen Surya perform were in exhibitions, galas, and some professional competitions (back when those took place).
Yes, backflips are banned from competition. You still see them in shows, but as JK stated below, the ISU said they couldn't be done in competition because they were landed on two feet. Surya Bonaly's famous back flip was during the olympics when she realized she was not skating quite well enough to win. She basically 'flipped off' the ISU by doing a backflip in competition landing on one foot. Pretty impressive.
Hi!Thanks for demonstration! I am now on backwards crossovers ,its awfu😔l.The Rithberger ? Is the same like Loop jump?
Yes, it is Exact same jump, just different name on different continents.
I came to this video bcs of Yuri on Ice lol. I'm interested to identify the differences in all types of jumps in the anime bcs they all look the same to me!! thanks for this video
Glad I could help!
Was it ilia malinin
And do the back spin in the air for every jumps
That is correct!
I have said this many a tie, "BOY I would hate to be a judge!!!"
And now we have a quadruple axel that has been landed in competition!
Amazing. I never thought I would see that.
How is it after your ankle surgery is it same like before or you are facing problems, how many months after ankle surgery you started it again.
It took me several months to be allowed to skate again, but then I also had to contend with the 2020 shut down and rinks closing. It was an odd time to be in recovery. My ankle does so much better now!
@@CoachJulia yes it should be better for whole life actually I too had ankle surgery a month ago
I don’t understand how one is better or harder than any other. The fact they are leaping into the air and spinning on ice is crazy snd impressive and I expect is incredibly hard. The method of launching seems insignificant to me - that said I know nothing about skating
I'm right handed and rotate counter clockwise, my kid is left handed and does the opposite. Are there any freaks like us here? Please lmk...
The only jump she didn't show is a Beginners Jump. And that is called the Walts Jump which is not a hard Jump. Also all of the Jumps that were illustrated are Doubles. For illustration purposes, it would have been nice to do Single Jumps instead of Doubles.
As someone who has never skated, that looks really rough on the knees and ankles!
It is!!
The fact that im here after curiosity with yuri on ice and yuzuru hanyu
That’s awesome!
Do you perform or just coach?
I still do perform, but not as much as I used to. Now, it is just for pure joy and fun for me.
