What's Your Favorite Jump Combination?

[andyjo24]

This might have already been discussed some time in the past, but what are your favorite jump combinations either for men or women and if there is a reason, why?

I really like the 2A+3T combo for women and the 3A+3T combo for men (Han Yan comes to mind).

I'm interested to know what you guys think!

3A-1lo-3S from Hanyu , it's one of very few combinations with 1Lo that I really like to watch, many others 1lo just look like a step out or error

for women I like combination with 3Lo

and I like Elizaveta 3T3T

I like backended triple loops and Kim's 3/3s....

This sounds ambiguous, but jump combos that get to 10 points at least. BV or with GOE added.

3S-3T-3Lo, 3F-3T-3Lo, 3S-3T-2Lo, 3F-3Lo, 3Lz-3Lo, I guess 3Lz-3T.

MAYBE 3F-1Lo-3S, 3Lz-1Lo-3S.

4T/3T.

I love to see great jumpers crank that many revolutions in one pass.

Plushy used to do a 4/3/2 combo and at least once attempted 4/3/3, but they always looked like they ran out of steam on the third jump of the combo. I appreciate the difficulty, but it spoiled the effect for me.

From the Ice Goddess herself,

the ever elegant, angel winged flow over the ice, the extraordinarily difficult jump combination 3 Flip+3 Loop.

I agree. I wish more skaters crank up more creative combo jumps than the ones already used so much. Or use ones that are less common.

Gracie's 3Lz-3T-3Lo

Or was it 3lo then 3t?

But yeah, I thought it was smooth and well executed.

Another one would be Soyoun's 3S-3T.
A combo that's also well executed.

Oh and Hanyu's 4S. A rare yet beautiful beast of a jump. I know this isn't a combo but I like it and for him, it's almost like a combo due to the amount of energy he uses to land this jump

Men:
Plushenko: 4T-3T-2Lo and 4T-3T-3Lo
Patrick Chan: 4T-3T

Women:
Yuna & Liza: 3Lz-3T
Miki Ando: 3Lz-3Lo
Anyone who takes on the 3Lo-3Lo challenge (is there anyone who didn't come down with a million injuries? :hopelessness

I also appreciate 3A combinations (whether from the guys or from Mao) for the sheer difficulty. But in terms of aesthetics, I tend to like watching a great big solo 3A (Petrenko-Boitano style).

2A-3T, 3A-4T, or waltz jump + 1T

 

[andyjo24]

2A-3T, 3A-4T, or waltz jump + 1T

Haha. That's an interesting choice you got there. :thumbsup:

I also like So Youn's 3S+3T! The distance is incredible. Too bad she's been struggling with it though these days.

 

[yyyskate]

Haha. That's an interesting choice you got there. :thumbsup:

I believe, SoYoun did a waltz jump + 1T, in her practice, and it is effortless.

 

[StitchMonkey]

I still like the back-flip. . . i am a very bad person.

Surya's Backflip-salchow was very nice

 

[invisiblespiral]

Wait.... I also like 3lz+2a....

 

[Alchamei]

When any combo is done very nicely, I basically don't care about the jumps in it. However, some specific here:

Yuna's 3Lz-3T, 3F-3T
Mao's 3F-3Lo
Carolina's 3F-3T
Liza's 3T-3T
Midori's 2A-1Lo-3S
Basically any combo by Wakaba
Han Yan's 3A-3T
Shoma's 2A-1Lo-3F
Plushy's 4T-3T

And so on... I can't think of anything else now.

Edit: I appreciate 2A-3T! Also, I'd love to see 2A-3Lo one day...

 

[matmuh]

[yyyskate]

^ for that matter, Denis' 4T-3A-3A without hop in-between

 

[yyyskate]

I also like Yuna's 3S-2lo
