Skater's best executed Triple/Quad jump(s)

[Franklin99]

If you guys know great triple/ quad jumpers, you all are welcome to create your own list. Mines were of the ones that i'm aware of, which is a very small group of skaters. I would love to see lists from other skating fans.

I have to mention Stolbova/Klimov's 3STh (even if this thread is about single events)

for pairs I think Tania and Max throw 3L is a thing of beauty as well as 3twist!!!
Sui/Han 3FTh is gorgeous too
just as there sempeis Shen/Zhao throws were AMAZING

Ladies

Here I'll do an old school one for you: Midori Ito for EVERY JUMP

but some runner ups would be Tonya Harding (3Lz and 3F were massive), Tatiana Malinina, Julia Sebestyen (3Lz!!), Irina Slutskaya, Shizuka Arakawa, Yuka Sato was also a great edge jumper, I'm probably forgetting a lot of names but I was a baby in the 90s so I don't remember these things very well lol

 

[Osmond4gold]

Best Lutz in Ladies...gotta go old school, with Liz Manley and Josee Chouinard.

 

[mrrice]

When I saw this performance by Angela Wang, I thought She was the greatest Junior skater I had ever seen. There have been a TON of big jumping juniors over the years but, Angela had lovely posture and carriage that was beyond her years. She also beautiful spins and was gorgeously packaged. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_BwNmS3dMY

I swear this performance would get on her the podium this year if she skated like she did here.

 

[4everchan]

yup... the height!!!

[Skater Boy]

Thank You, Thank You, and Thank You............. I'm going to add Tonya Harding's Triple Axel as one of the most exciting jumps I've seen in person. Lastly. Ryan Bradley's Quads were very exciting because he is so tall. I've never seen Evan jump live and I know he was tall for a skater but he didn't have a quad. It doesn't really matter but, Ryan Bradley is very good looking....He looks like a model.

Wow that was random - I never thought of Ryan as model type - but girls are always say some guy is good looking and I go look and say looks like a normal guy to me then I get a snare. What do I know. When they were on Josee Chouinard and Liz Manley had wonderful lutzes.

 

[ice coverage]

... For the Quad Lutz nobody mentioned Brandon Mroz. He was the first to land it but I don't remember in wich competition ....

He landed one at the Broadmoor Open in 2011...

Nitpicking (#sorrynotsorry ), but it was the 2011 Colorado Springs Invitational where Mroz landed the first quad lutz.

This SE-3A-SE-3A-SE is just...
Yuzu does love the 3A, and it loves him back.

Why is stuff like that just not worth it in competition, point-wise... :sad21::sad21::sad21:

That as part of a program would just be so awesome

The 3A-3A combo would be considered a sequence and thus the BV would only be 80% of the total.

Thus it would be more strategic to jump the 3A's separately in two jump passes.

Yes, and that is exactly why I'm complaining

Unless he does the rotation of the second axel the opposite direction to the first.

[Globetrotter]

Unless he does the rotation of the second axel the opposite direction to the first.
:shocked:

That is going to be impossible as you land backward on the first jump and the combo axel as the second jump must take off on a forward edge. A more likely scenario but still extremely remote probability is a 3A-3Lz combo with the lutz going in the opposite rotational direction as the axel. Will take someone with tremendous upper body strength to counter the flow out rotation of the axel and go the other way.

 

[pohatta]

One of the best 4t's has to be this one from Yannick Ponsero. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTmfanhMIqI

I think 3Lo was Laura Lepistö's top jump, she often had massive speed going into it. It's weird that she notoriously missed both her 3Lo's in her final competition (Worlds 2010).
