No News

Okay, Axels, Loops, and Spins ... I don't have any juicy gossip for you - well, not recent gossip anyway - so let's have a jumping poll out there until there's news in skating again.

What's your favorite jump?

I would have to say a loop jump, double or triple, especially when it's preceded by a bunch of inside three turns before take-off, a la Chris Nolan.

Maybe we can string up a bunch of jumps together like a game of add-on!

Okay, anyone else?

Ice Girl has a right loop and left loop combination that I think looks pretty cool.

But, unfortunately, the jumps all kind of blend together for me.

I will tell you this: I hate that stupid axel. :)

I always like a good triple toe loop. They are easy (if you can do triples) so you know they aren't going to crash into the boards.

How about a lutz, double or triple. There's usually a dramatic build-up to it.

Jumping (and Spinning) both ways is a great combo. I think judges like it because they know how hard it is.

To me landing an axel is what separates the men from the boys (or girls). Ice Girl's stepping up!

I like axel jumps. Always half a revolution more.

Nice big, high, triple axel!

And the news slump is over...Plushy's back.
