The rotational momentum for the jump is gained by the swinging movement of the free leg and the coordination of the free leg and arms at the point of takeoff. The salchow can alternately be entered from an inside Mohawk turn or from back crossovers. As an edge jump, it is usually performed on a circular pattern instead of from a straight-line approach. Occasionally, the salchow is performed as the second or third jump in a jump combination, following a one-foot axel or half loop, which land on a back inside edge.
The mechanics of a single salchow are quite similar to those of the Waltz jump, the half-rotation jump from a forward outside edge. The salchow is therefore usually the first full-rotation jump taught to beginning figure skaters. It teaches the skater to check his or her turn and how to jump off the edge rather than the toe pick. An alternate technique used by many skaters on the takeoff for multi-rotation especially triple and quadruple salchow jumps is to allow the free foot the right foot for a counterclockwise jumper to rest on the ice while bringing it around to the front, instead of using the scooping motion.
Sometimes this is merely the result of a deep knee bend on the takeoff leg. Beginners might first stand on their right foot and then do a loop from there, resulting in pre-rotation, but in a real lutz, where the left leg on the edge does the jumping, there is no pre-rotation. The shoulders will still face forwards at take off. Sign up to join this community. The best answers are voted up and rise to the top.

Twist Lifts Sometimes the most thrilling and exciting component in pair skating, twist lifts can also be the most difficult to perform correctly.
The Double split twist lift is a mandatory element in the short program at all levels Pre-Novice to Senior. In the Split twist lift , both partners skate backwards in a hip lift position, the male behind the female. The female reaches back with her free leg, and picks to assist in the take-off like a Lutz jump.
The female is than lifted by the male for half a revolution, at which time she attains the split position. She is then caught by the male in the air and assisted to a smooth landing on a clean, back outside edge.
Lateral twist: A move in which the male throws his partner overhead. She rotates one time, or more, while in a lateral position to the ice and is caught before being set down gently on to the ice. Throw Jumps Another exciting aspect of pair skating is throw jumps. In throw jumps, the male partner assists the female into flight. The height and distance that can be obtained on the different throw jumps often thrill audiences.
Typically there are four different type of throw jumps that are executed: throw Axel, throw Salchow, throw toe loop, throw loop. From time to time, teams will also execute throw flip or throw Lutz jumps, though these are not that common.
Teams will execute either single, double or triple throw jumps, depending on level and ability. Degree of difficulty in spin elements is increased by the positions attained, speed of revolution, number of revolutions and number of changes of position.
Teams should strive to maintain a constant speed throughout the spin, and execute clean changes to new positions. Spins should also be centered, with aesthetically pleasing lines. Death Spirals Death spirals are a circular move in which the male lowers his partner to the ice while she is arched backwards gliding on one foot.
The male must be in a correct pivot position for this element to be executed properly. There are four variations on the death spiral: forward inside, forward outside, backward inside, backward outside.
It is generally accepted that the forward inside is the easiest of the four, and the forward outside is the most difficult. At the entry-levels of pair skating, teams will often execute an upright spiral figure rather than a death spiral. In this spiral figure the male is in correct pivot position, while the female rotates around him in an upright spiral position.
Again there are four variations: forward inside, forward outside, backward inside, backward outside. Neat fact : At the World Championships, pair team Suzanne Morrow and Wallace Distelmeyer performed the first low death spiral in international competition.
Assisted Jump : A jump of not more than one 1 revolution, in which a skater s provides passive assistance to another skater s in a non-supportive role. The take off must be done by the skater who jumps. In this action there is a continuous ascending and descending movement. The hands of the skater s providing the passive assistance must not be raised higher than the shoulders.
A change in arrangement means that the skaters must change the members beside whom they skate. A change in form means that the number of lines in an element must change e. Highlighting : An element in which a skater s performs a movement in isolation that is distracting from the performance of the rest of the team.
Jumps : A rotational type of movement of at least one 1 turn during which both feet leave the ice. Contact us. Close Menu. JavaScript is disabled.

Also does that mean I can start learning salchow while doing axel? I've also heard some people for real land a double sal before an axel, does that happen to anyone else too? Joined Dec 8,
