Hanyu has the most difficult entries to the 3A. I think Ilia did a spread eagle to a 3A, but Hanyu does a spread eagle to a 3A to a another spread eagle. Hanyu also does a left outside to inside edge counter turn entry to his 3A. In terms of size of the jump, Ilia Kulik is king. But overall, I have to give it to Hanyu.
+JV Salud Remember, though, that in Ilia's day, a spreadeagle into a 3A was practically unimaginable. It was very special. Hanyu might have the difficult entry, but taking away those, Ilia's jump is purer, and better. Hanyu's is a very good jump, however I feel like too much emphasis is now being placed on what you can do in and out of the jump than the purity of the jump itself.
Best one is Midori Ito, better than the men. Best triple Axel triple Toe. She jumps so high she has to cross her free leg higher up to create drag and slow down her rotation to avoid overrotating.
agreed with quiddy. watch the lalique tournament warmup video, midori does an amazing 3A-3T. If you also watch Midori's 1990 halifax worlds LP, Toller Cranston says at the end of the video during the replays of her 3T-3T and 3A that her triple axel was one of the best if not the best in the competition, including the men.
If Mitori tightened her air position and got rid of the leg wrap, she could have done a quad axel and quads, maybe even quints. Her triples literally looked like doubles with the leg wrap. Effortless and so confident when she went for her jumps.
This footage of Hanyu is quite old and he has come a long way since then, even on his 3A that was already gorgeous. At the 2019 Worlds, the ice scope revealed that he had by far the most height and distance out of all the men in the competition on 3A in their SP. And then in the FS he went on to perform a combination 4T+3A+SEQ (never done before) which shows that he can jump the 3A after a 4T... That guy is unbelievable 😥
@oofahman mooch Idk why you're bringing up Nathan but if you look at ice scope data from 2019 Worlds Hanyu had the biggest 3A in terms of height and distance. Maybe the technology is not reliable idk but his 3A certainly seems big. 3A is one of Nathan's weakest jumps but he definitely deserved gold in Saitama because he didn't make mistakes and he did 4Lz and 4F.
Kulik's triples were magical, I have no idea how the hell he did those buttefly light and quick jumps. Have to say that my absolute favorite is Yuzuru, he does them beautifully whereas other great jumpers do not have this beauty of shape in the air. Also- I've noticed that Plushenko's triple got more beautiful with years.
Fast forward to 2019: We have finally reached a level, where Hanyu jumps 3As from a back counter (= minimum entry speed) of 70cm height and 3.62m distance 😨😨😨 We also witnessed the first ever 4T+3A sequence in competition and he has announced the 4A... Shoma seems to work on a 3A+4T combo... it's mindblowing, what these boys can do.
@@benbailey159bb They are using ice-scopes in competitions now, so these data appear on the screen during rewind at the end of the program, while the skater is in kiss and cry. Skate Canada, NHK trophy 2019, some of the competitions where you can see the height, distance, speed into the jump.
Did you consider Fernandez? His landings are off and on but he always has super difficult footwork into the 3A and huge air / effortless rotational position
lauR3ncedbest simple yet bitchy The problem is that you often see snow flying up during his landing, which indicates that he is still rotating the jump while on the ice..
pacificoast82 besides I feel like ice flying during landing isnt rly the best indicator to find out if a skater UR or not. You just gotta slow down the vid and watch, the benchmark is around 45°, not that hard right?
Kurt Browning's triple axels were better than Yuzus. I'd add Brian Orser, Jeremy Abbott, Viktor Petrenko, and Nobunari Oda who had some incredible ones as well.
tamachan91 Han Yan's Axel's are also great and he would be next in the list after these 6 guys. My idea was to include only 6 skaters, so I had to take out few other guys with nice Axel's.
When Yuzuru Hanyu did normal 3A, mean 3A without difficult entry ( but still with short set up) his 3A had great distance and height, the distance cover 11-12 seats
@oofahman mooch I think the comment was referring best 3A. On a side note I'm sure Hanyu will manage to live with Nathan winning the 2019 worlds given that he's a two time Olympic Champion
She was very good, but first of all I think this is just men and also she was off axis on most of them. Could’ve been tighter and less heavy. Landed on the inside edge quite often aswell
My favorite triple axel of all time is the one Tonya Harding performed at the 1991 Skate America, her Free Skate. Pure power, timing, speed and height - gotta love it!
Crazy that Midori and Tonya's 3A looked better and higher than some of these men! Tonya Harding also landed 5 or 6 quad axels in 1991, and sprained her ankle on the 6th, and said she would never do them again
+Daniil Timin What quad are you thinking of? because yes, they do all the time, Hanyu does them a lot, its like a triple axel except instead of 3 turns its 4. and yes they can land them.
+955pokerface What the flip? No-one's ever landed a quad Axel in competition. EVER. Every now and again we get videos like Max Aaron doing it on the harness, but no-one's close enough to attempt in in competition. What are you talking about?
Ilya Kulik's 3A was the best of all time - the calmness and total balance at take off and landing, the simultaneously explosive yet somehow light as a feather jump height. Honestly Midori Ito easily has the 2nd best 3A of all time - hers is better than almost all the men. The speed height and flow in and out is even better than Kulik's - she should have been on this list
The most beautiful triple Axel I have ever seen was that of Todd Eldredge at the World Championship in 1996. He had two in his free program, and it is the landing of the second one that is just amazing.
Very nice list of 3A jumpers. My favorites have got to be Kulik's and Hanyu's, for me, those are the best. Kulik's looks incredibly powerful, yet in complete control (something I did not see much in Plushenko's or Yagudin's although they were very consistent on it and got great height), on the other hand, Hanyu gets less height but has the smoothest landings (enough to go straight into a spread-eagle) and the hard entrances. And Farris is definitely another example of a great 3A, he doesn't have a ton of preparation and had a nice rotation. I supposed there would be comments regarding why Yan and Ten aren't here, their 3A is great as well. But I think that, although Yan's 3A is HUGE, he has to do them on the first half of his programs for them to work amazingly, while these guys could place them anywhere and still nail it easily. I'd like to see him try it. And regarding Ten, he has a beautiful technique, but last season his 3A failed him a bit. Hi best FS were hands down 4CC and Worlds and his only noticeable mistake was the step out of the 3A. I really hope it was just something temporary and he can have it back :) Though, of course, this is all just my opinion.
+hyunsifs88 Hanyu now does his quad sal right into an immediate spread eagle which no one does. And Hanyu also does 2 triple axel at the 2nd half of his FS...3A/2 hands over head double loop, and another 3A/1/2 loop/triple toe or sometimes a 3A/1/2 loop to a 3S!
Can a skater do a X jump+1/2lo+3T combination? I have never seen anyone do it, not even Hanyu (he always does an Xjump+1/2Lo+3S). I thought they didn't really need it since the normal landing of any jump provides the perfect set up for a toeloop, no need for the sort of step out the loop provides. I would think the 1/2 loop would make them lose momentum to use the left pick to propel themselves. I've only seen it used for 3S and 3F, in both men and ladies. Do you have a video? Because I'm honestly very curious on how it looks.
hyunsifs88 In my opinion it's easier to do a 3 toe loop in a jump sequence with 1/2 loop. No one does it because there are no need for it - you can only do total of 3 combinations of jumps including 1 jump sequence in the free skate. That's why most skaters to get most points doing 2 combinations X jump+3T or X jump+2T and jump seq. Xjump+1/2Lo+3S. Shoma Uno, for example, to get more points, does a jumps sequence 2A+1/2Lo+3F. Once again, from my own skating experience I'll say that it is not harder to do a 3T after 1/2 loop. No one does it because there no need for it, it doesn't really make sense.
Brian Boitano's triple axel was one that seemed to hit the ceiling. He was doing them up til his late 30's. The only thing that stopped him from doing them longer was a sciatic nerve issue in his lower back Which made the kick thru irritate the nerve
Okay but like how he did just turned on the same foot he took off with at 2:45, that entry is just ridiculous. If there is a day that someone lands a quad axel in competition, that would be yuzuru
@@animegenesis7 i don't think so, he struggles even with 3A. On the other hand. Yuzu use back counter entry and a high kick on the exit or twizzle sandwich because why not
They forgot to mention and show Han Yan from China’s triple axels. His triple axels fly far and high. I think he’s got one of the best men’s triple axels.
For the current skaters, Yuzuru Hanyu but including all retired skater, Kulik. I have always thought Hanyu's 3A is wonderful, but Kulik's looks easier. I mean, there's kind of kicking (kicking of right foot when start to jump) in 3A. However Kulik's kicking is almost innoticeable
Daniil Timin But Denis 3A must be here, in this video. What does Yagudin? I'm not going to hold great butthurt here. Moreover, that both athletes (Yagudin & Ten) are absolutely different triple axel technique. Alex has jump's span better than Denis's, but Denis has jump's high better than Alex's. But the essence of my first comment is not in this... The title of your video is ''Best Triple Axel Jumps Compilation", maybe you mean an other title, e.g., ''My Favorite 3A Jumps Compilation''... For example, I am not agree that Michal & Joshua have 3A better than Denis Ten has, and I think many people will agree with me.
Like I mentioned already in one of the comments, I wanted to make a video with Axel's of 6 people. So yes, I did not include few skaters with really good jumps. For example, like Han Yan and Denis Ten. You can disagree, but I prefer Michal and Joshua's Axels over Han Yan and Ten's. They have much more control and flow. Denis Ten's Axel is actually gets pretty crazy sometimes, all over the place.
Sergey Gorsht and one more thing: what is for you the perfect jump? It is not all about how big it is. In my opinion the most important thing is how easy it looks, flow of the jump and position in the air.
Daniil Timin I'm so happy that u've picked Joshua Farris's axel. It seems to me that people don't know him that much and don't appreciate how amazing jumper he is.
I agree. Watch Midori's 1990 Worlds LP at Halifax. in both the UK and Canadian versions of her skate the commentators said her 3A was as good or better than any of the men.
Check out my video compilation of the best Triple Axel jumps! Michal Brezina, Joshua Farris, Yuzuru Hanyu, Ilya Kulik, Evgeni Plushenko and Alexei Yagudin Triple Axel's! #FigureSkating #IceSkating #IceSkate #FigureSkate #ISU #YuzuruHanyu #EvgeniPlushenko #triplejump #TripleAxel #AxelJump #Olympics #Athlete #sportsnews #Sport
You forgot to show Brian Boitano’s triple axel. He has one of the biggest 3A, and it’s up forced. Joshua Farris and Brian both have perfect landing positions, with the landing leg deeply bend, and the free leg smoothly coming out behind, not swinging kind of wildly to the side as so many skaters do..
+lyverbird1973 his Axel is good and it has a great distance, but not is much height. He pretty much does it because of the speed he have. In my opinion the other 6 guys have better 3 Axel than Han Yan.
The russians, the best ever. High, position on air, the best school. The best: Plushenko, Kulik and Yagudin. Women: the best was Midori Ito, Tonya Harding (second) Javier Fernández has better 3A than Yuzuru Hanyu.
Lol the crowd barely applaud or gets excited when a man does the triple axel but when a woman does it, just like Mirai Nagasu did at the Olympics, everyone goes crazy. Is it because it's much easier for a man to do the 3A? 🤔🤔
I would also have included Han Yan of China and Artur Gachinski of Russia...both have spectacular 3As with a lot of height and distance. Ilia's, for me, will always be the best of all time, but Joshua's has become so perfect in recent years...and of course, Plushenko still being able to do his at 32, with metal in his back, broken in more ways than can be imagined, is a testament to his perfect technique on the jump. I appreciate that Hanyu can do movement in an out of the jump, but his landings always look a little...floppy, to me, and I prefer the simple beauty of the jump as Joshua shows in that opening moment of Schindler's List *__*. Also making me a little sad is seeing Ilia's, Joshua's, Evgeni's, and Hanyu's 3A-3Ts...it used to be a standard combo, that you were really technically strong if you could do it, but with the quads and the Zayak rule, it's falling out of favour, and I miss it, because when done well, it's beautiful.
If Yagudin had had better air position and more training on the fishing pole he could have well rotated a 4a, landing would have been a deiiferent thing though, his landing werent the best.
Brian Orser said " It was lucky Midori Ito is not Men.".
Hanyu has the most difficult entries to the 3A. I think Ilia did a spread eagle to a 3A, but Hanyu does a spread eagle to a 3A to a another spread eagle.
Hanyu also does a left outside to inside edge counter turn entry to his 3A.
In terms of size of the jump, Ilia Kulik is king.

You mean outside edge to outside edge.. Counters have to be the same edges.
Jozef Sabovcik has the biggest triple axel I ever saw. Just fo to about the 25 sexond mRk if the 1983 Europeans LP.
Hanyu is so much better. And his jump is most difficult ont the world!!!!!!!!!!! Your reaction is this one, because you are fun of Illia
@@walover165 because this sport is also an art, and it's not just about the jumps but actually a performance.
Yuzuru spread eagle - 3A - spread eagle at CoC in SP +3.0 GOE. The first skater to do this combination in competition.
Wait Ilya Kulik at 3:58 does it too
Let's not rewrite history. Several men did this before Yuzuru: Matt Savoie, Ilia Kulik, and Jeremy Abbott to name a few.
Best one is Midori Ito, better than the men. Best triple Axel triple Toe. She jumps so high she has to cross her free leg higher up to create drag and slow down her rotation to avoid overrotating.

That’s not what drag is. The reason you spin faster with the leg down is having a smaller moment of inertia; the same thing would happen in space.
@@bcthoburn I stand corrected. It’s moment of inertia not drag. But same mechanics
If Mitori tightened her air position and got rid of the leg wrap, she could have done a quad axel and quads, maybe even quints. Her triples literally looked like doubles with the leg wrap. Effortless and so confident when she went for her jumps.

The height on Yagudin's is just mindblowing to me. Ito is of course a legend, but I could picture Aliona Kostornaya in a compilation like this too
Yuzuru Hanyu

Hanyu Yuzuru I think is the best
Ilia Kulik is the king of jumps, his jumps are so light and effortless.

for me... Yuzu and Plushy.
Javier Fernandez has one of the best 3A. Shame it wasnt included here

On a side note I'm sure Hanyu will manage to live with Nathan winning the 2019 worlds given that he's a two time Olympic Champion
Evgeni Plushenko and Midori Ito. The king and queen of jumps.
Hanyu and Kulik! Most effortless
Hanyu is numero uno :) !!!
Tonya???? Anyone???
it could’ve been much tighter and the landing was lucky at best,that is why she isn’t in here

+955pokerface HAHAHA
For me Viktor Petrenko had the best triple axel in history. Also I'm surprised not to see here Fernandez.
Fernández, I agree; his 3A is better than Yuzuru Hanyu.
Anime Genesis I think Javier is better jumper, too.
I agree that Victor Petrenko should be in here but also we’re is Brian Orser? At one time he had some of the best triple axles in the world.

Definitely Mindoro as others say below. I’d also throw in Todd Eldridge and Johnny Weir.
The most beautiful triple Axel I have ever seen was that of Todd Eldredge at the World Championship in 1996. He had two in his free program, and it is the landing of the second one that is just amazing.
Plushenko: at 32 years the perfect one!

I really hope it was just something temporary and he can have it back :) Though, of course, this is all just my opinion.
hyuns88 I agree with every single word of yours :)
+hyunsifs88 Hanyu now does his quad sal right into an immediate spread eagle which no one does. And Hanyu also does 2 triple axel at the 2nd half of his FS...3A/2 hands over head double loop, and another 3A/1/2 loop/triple toe or sometimes a 3A/1/2 loop to a 3S!
Can a skater do a X jump+1/2lo+3T combination? I have never seen anyone do it, not even Hanyu (he always does an Xjump+1/2Lo+3S). I thought they didn't really need it since the normal landing of any jump provides the perfect set up for a toeloop, no need for the sort of step out the loop provides. I would think the 1/2 loop would make them lose momentum to use the left pick to propel themselves. I've only seen it used for 3S and 3F, in both men and ladies. Do you have a video? Because I'm honestly very curious on how it looks.
hyunsifs88 In my opinion it's easier to do a 3 toe loop in a jump sequence with 1/2 loop. No one does it because there are no need for it - you can only do total of 3 combinations of jumps including 1 jump sequence in the free skate. That's why most skaters to get most points doing 2 combinations X jump+3T or X jump+2T and jump seq. Xjump+1/2Lo+3S. Shoma Uno, for example, to get more points, does a jumps sequence 2A+1/2Lo+3F.
Once again, from my own skating experience I'll say that it is not harder to do a 3T after 1/2 loop. No one does it because there no need for it, it doesn't really make sense.
Oh ok, I see. Thank you so much for explaining :) It's great to get experiences from people who have skated first hand
Yagudin and Kulik are the best. Highest and cleaner
Hanyu
Tatsuki Machida is also nice 3A jumper. Especially his 3A in SP at Worlds 2014 is my favorites.
yags air position is kinda scary. not his best jump. Hanyu and Plush have the best for me
Daphen axa He had a looser air position, but it was actually one of his most consistent jumps.
Yagudin made the best one!!!!
Tonya harding tho
Yagudin: Espectacular
Brian Boitano's triple axel was one that seemed to hit the ceiling. He was doing them up til his late 30's. The only thing that stopped him from doing them longer was a sciatic nerve issue in his lower back Which made the kick thru irritate the nerve
The best triple axel and the highest is Midori Ito’s bar none. And it happened when she turned pro
i would Evgene has the most amazing airtime. also he reaches and goes up before starting to rotate. text book.
Okay but like how he did just turned on the same foot he took off with at 2:45, that entry is just ridiculous. If there is a day that someone lands a quad axel in competition, that would be yuzuru
No. Mr. Quad now is Nathan Chen, the only man who has the record (5 and 6 quads in a free program). He could 4A
@@animegenesis7 i dont thing that, Nathan axel isnt the best.
@@animegenesis7 i don't think so, he struggles even with 3A. On the other hand. Yuzu use back counter entry and a high kick on the exit or twizzle sandwich because why not
@@animegenesis7 Nathan will never even try a 4A because he hates the Axel jump
Out of all of them Plushenko is the best at recovery. He isn't always beautiful but he can land almost anything.
My love is Alexei but I like Kulik too :)
Todd Eldridge world championship 1996 should be here he did two perfect triple axels in one program
They forgot to mention and show Han Yan from China’s triple axels. His triple axels fly far and high. I think he’s got one of the best men’s triple axels.
I prefer tonya's and midori's axels
My vote is on Tonya Harding then Kulik then Yagudin and Eldredge.
forgot who is your favorite skater. Yagudin's axel high but isn't nice...
Midori is nice too tho
For the current skaters, Yuzuru Hanyu but including all retired skater, Kulik. I have always thought Hanyu's 3A is wonderful, but Kulik's looks easier. I mean, there's kind of kicking (kicking of right foot when start to jump) in 3A. However Kulik's kicking is almost innoticeable
Yuzuru_Gold Hanyu's triple axel is great because of its very difficult entry.
Now we need Ilias Quad Axel to end the video
ジョシュア…

no matter what but Tonya’s , Midori’s triple axel still got my heart!
Hanyu is good, but...Plushenko for ever!!!
Of course. Plushenko is the BEST, the original.
I really like to see how Yuzu's axel keeps improving. Show how much he works hard!
Ilia Kulik has the best triple Axel.

Denis Ten's triple axel is the biggest, but it is not here, unfortunately...
Sergey Gorsht not as big as Yagudin's.
Daniil Timin But Denis 3A must be here, in this video. What does Yagudin? I'm not going to hold great butthurt here. Moreover, that both athletes (Yagudin & Ten) are absolutely different triple axel technique. Alex has jump's span better than Denis's, but Denis has jump's high better than Alex's. But the essence of my first comment is not in this... The title of your video is ''Best Triple Axel Jumps Compilation", maybe you mean an other title, e.g., ''My Favorite 3A Jumps Compilation''... For example, I am not agree that Michal & Joshua have 3A better than Denis Ten has, and I think many people will agree with me.
Like I mentioned already in one of the comments, I wanted to make a video with Axel's of 6 people. So yes, I did not include few skaters with really good jumps. For example, like Han Yan and Denis Ten. You can disagree, but I prefer Michal and Joshua's Axels over Han Yan and Ten's. They have much more control and flow. Denis Ten's Axel is actually gets pretty crazy sometimes, all over the place.
Sergey Gorsht and one more thing: what is for you the perfect jump? It is not all about how big it is. In my opinion the most important thing is how easy it looks, flow of the jump and position in the air.
Daniil Timin I'm so happy that u've picked Joshua Farris's axel. It seems to me that people don't know him that much and don't appreciate how amazing jumper he is.
I vote for midori ito
I agree. Watch Midori's 1990 Worlds LP at Halifax. in both the UK and Canadian versions of her skate the commentators said her 3A was as good or better than any of the men.
Check out my video compilation of the best Triple Axel jumps! Michal Brezina, Joshua Farris, Yuzuru Hanyu, Ilya Kulik, Evgeni Plushenko and Alexei Yagudin Triple Axel's!

You forgot to show Brian Boitano’s triple axel. He has one of the biggest 3A, and it’s up forced. Joshua Farris and Brian both have perfect landing positions, with the landing leg deeply bend, and the free leg smoothly coming out behind, not swinging kind of wildly to the side as so many skaters do..
Han Yan's triple axel is one of the best being performed at the moment.
+lyverbird1973 his Axel is good and it has a great distance, but not is much height. He pretty much does it because of the speed he have. In my opinion the other 6 guys have better 3 Axel than Han Yan.
+Daniil Timin Agree to differ so!
Javier Fernández??? Where??
I also think that perhaps Brian Orser could be included because he had some nice 3 axles.
The russians, the best ever. High, position on air, the best school. The best: Plushenko, Kulik and Yagudin. Women: the best was Midori Ito, Tonya Harding (second)
Javier Fernández has better 3A than Yuzuru Hanyu.
Saying Javi has a better 3A than Hanyu is quite possibly the most stupid thing I've ever heard regarding figure skating lol
Update this with Mirai Nagasu during 2018 Peyongchang
Update to a lot now xD
The one by Joshua Farris at 1:52 is I think the best triple axel I've ever seen. Other than Midori Ito's.
+Joe DiPasquale Oh, I know. Forget +3, that's +1000. *__*
Plushenko, Yagudin & Kulik, &. Don't like girly looking man that is of fashion in recent years. Hope this trend passes soon.
Exactly. I miss masculine skaters, nowadays no difference between men and women competitions - everybody does same choreography
Ягудин - лучший здесь!
My favorite I's the women you didn't list
Alyona Kastornaya!! has the best 3A+ ever
Lol the crowd barely applaud or gets excited when a man does the triple axel but when a woman does it, just like Mirai Nagasu did at the Olympics, everyone goes crazy. Is it because it's much easier for a man to do the 3A? 🤔🤔
Smeagolol For a reason only 8 women landed 3A in an international competition. That speaks volumes about its difficulty.
Yes due to the fact that women have wider hips it's harder for them to spin faster so it's even more of a wow factor when a woman does a 3A
None of them. Viktor Petrenko had the best triple axel, it really used to fly.
chacun a son identité...essayez de le contempler sans comparer..
The Russians don't play. 15 years old doing triple axel followed by triple toe and make it looks effortless
Plushenko' s jumps are spectacular, he win. Second place: Victor Petrenko. Today Javier Fernández and Michael Brezina have good triples axel.
I would also have included Han Yan of China and Artur Gachinski of Russia...both have spectacular 3As with a lot of height and distance. Ilia's, for me, will always be the best of all time, but Joshua's has become so perfect in recent years...and of course, Plushenko still being able to do his at 32, with metal in his back, broken in more ways than can be imagined, is a testament to his perfect technique on the jump. I appreciate that Hanyu can do movement in an out of the jump, but his landings always look a little...floppy, to me, and I prefer the simple beauty of the jump as Joshua shows in that opening moment of Schindler's List *__*.
Also making me a little sad is seeing Ilia's, Joshua's, Evgeni's, and Hanyu's 3A-3Ts...it used to be a standard combo, that you were really technically strong if you could do it, but with the quads and the Zayak rule, it's falling out of favour, and I miss it, because when done well, it's beautiful.
+walover165 Artur Gachinski did a lot of mistakes on the Triple Axel.
No tonya or Ito??
If Yagudin had had better air position and more training on the fishing pole he could have well rotated a 4a, landing would have been a deiiferent thing though, his landing werent the best.
Kulik is so high, he wins. Yuzuru would be 3 or 4 in this group.
Tonya ???? NO women
Yuzuru é o melhor!!!
tonya harding was the best
Since this comp. was all guys shouldn’t the title be best male figure skaters who’ve master the triple jump?
Why weren't there any girls???????????????????
I would add Johnny Weir, Denis Ten and Elizaveta tuktamysheva. In tuk's case she doesn't even move her left arm!
