  1. A walley looks a bit like a loop jump. If a skater lands his or her jumps on the right foot, he or she would take off on a back inside edge and jump in the counterclockwise direction for a full revolution and land on a right back outside edge.

    It is said that the walley jump is named after an American figure skater named Nate Walley.

    Examples:

    A walley is more difficult than a loop jump and is usually done from a back outside to back inside change of edge pull. Walleys are usually done in a row. Sometimes figure skaters perform two or three walleys down the center of the ice in a row and connect them with edge pulls. Sometimes, skaters change feet and do walleys in both directions.

    Walleys are no longer counted as jump elements in competition; they are considered transitional elements.
