  1. well, the first question is are you doing triple axel? ok, its just like an axel, one and a half revolutions, BUT on triple, you have to jump three times higher and STAY IN VERY TIGHT!! Although I'm not to triple axel yet, I've seen it on TV and have observed the things they do in their jumps. Good Luck!


  2. SEND ME A PIC

  3. In a triple axel,  the skater takes off on a forward outside edge, turn in the air three and a half times, and land on the opposite foot.

    Hope this was helpful.

  4. You skate on a left forward outside edge, swing your right leg into the air. Once you get up into the air at the height of the jump, rotate 3 and one half times in the air with your left leg crossed over your right so you are in very tight with your arms held closely to the body.

    Don't try this. You'll get hurt. Stick with learning the single axel before you do anything else.

  5. To perform an Axel, you  approache the jump on a right back outside edge in a strongly held check position before stepping onto a left forward outside edge. you vault over the toe pick of the left skate and "steps up" into the jump with the right leg. Then the skater brings the left leg through to cross in front of the right in what is known as a back spin position (similar to that for the loop jump), to bring the center of rotation around the right side of the body; this is often described as a weight shift in the air. Uncrossing the legs on the landing checks the rotation and allows you to flow out of the jump with good speed.

    GOOD LUCK!!
