Triple Axels in Ladies' Skating: UPDATED 2020 

Alena, I think. She makes it higher and further. The jump is as candle, with a smaller angle, because it looks prettier, plus the exit with an additional element. Pay attention at the GOE.

@@quadflutz319 Updated quads video is coming soon!

Alena

Alyona has difficult TR in and out, high and long 3A. It was a new element back then for her, she did a great job. Rika usually has a smaller 3A when compared to Alyona's but thats mostly due different technique, however, she has better air position and landing. Her 3A's are being fully rotated on the air, which is so so amazing. They're both great!, it is difficult to say who's better. I believe Wakaba will have huge 3A, once it's stable, there is footage of 4CC practice and the length of her jump was like watching Yuzu or Han Yan's.

Elizaveta

Now 10 yo are attempting it. In 2030 5 yo would be landing 4A cleanly 😂

@@pahoellyyy 😂😂👍🏻

@@PanchoMaldonado-hf6rq hi 😊

Women were doing triple axels in the 80's! It was a long time before they made another appearance

I dont know, Midori Ito's 3A is #1 to me... and Kostornaia is #1.1 :)

Aliona's 3a had the highest success rate

I love Team Tutberidze. I have to admit Alena can jump the most beautiful 3 Axels, either on Short Program or FS.

@@itsallgoodman1244 HAHAHA SORRY MS. TONYA I DIDN'T MEAN TO OFFEND U

Has she landed any 3A3T in competition? That says everything.

Nah, it’s the other way round.

@Jessica Sycz So... Alysa, Rika and You dope too? Or you just being casually xenophobic?

@Jessica Sycz stop liking your own comments, jessica.

@Jessica Sycz ma'am...you're talking to a minor as well. that's not gonna work with me.I'm probably younger than you lol

@Jessica Sycz and how do I know you're a minor? you could be 70 years old for all I know, and the one with the sad life here is you dear, thinking skaters dope. if there's a comedy club where you live, go on the stage and tell your jokes to someone else cause this is not harassing. and are you implying my life? do you know me? are you harassing me? oh my God. help. she's harassing me

I think her axel is the greatest

Yah!Can't agree more

And she’s 50 and can still do an amazing 2A, the talent in that woman

@@dexfatarm she's incredible, and such a lovely person

Midori's 3A was a moonshot. And even after that, only like ONE skater in every era really attempted it a lot. Tonya Harding and Mao Asada come to mind. Only now do you see multiple girls attempting and landing it in any given skating season. About time!!

Me too 😂

Liza's 3A is insanity to watch.... truly its like magic to see how she snaps so quickly into rotation...

@@zeel5689 yes, the thing that really amaze me is how little she uses her arms to lift her body.

It's unique to her at least and kinda rare I guess. Sometimes too much arm swinging can make the jump looks muscly (example Zhenya's 2A Eteri era).

@Marine Chuop-Mourareau Professor Mishin said once that he had to alter the arms technique for Liza (left arm if I'm not mistaken) and this way she grasped 3A much easier. I love Liza's 3A, it looks so... natural. Like she slides and the next moment she flies. Alyona and Rika are both fantastic too.

liza is working on quads too, so I really hope she can be the first grown woman to do it consistently given we’ve seen her land them in practice! wish she would be more recognition for being the one of only ‘older’ female skaters still keeping up with the teenagers

I’m glad you said this. I sure did notice that all of a sudden after the olympics, there was a sudden boom of all these young ladies doing 3A and even landing quads. You’re right, it’s GOT to be murder on the bones at that age. It will be interesting to see if they maintain it when they become of age. I feel like they’re put under pressure to start earlier and earlier in the skating world so time will tell!

Totally agree. Rika is the best, for me. 💚 If Alena had Rika's landing.. But Alena's height, wow.

Raya I.K. Actually Rika is able to produce insanely high jumps, but it’s not consistent. I remember that one of her triple axel is as high as 58cm

I love her transitions especially

And her take-off is not clean~

I agree with you

What? Do you see Elizaveta's 3A?

1:47

It's not young you, it's you young.

@@spencerlee7450 It's not a strange name but a Korean figure skater's name. Your name is really weird.

@@spencerlee7450 That's a disrespectful remark for Korea. You're so ignorant and rude.

@@tacke838 In Asia the first and last name gets switched a lot

She still did in her short program. It doesn't look quite same in terms of height and ease, but it's after a triple axel so can't really fault her for that. But I personally think it looked better with the double axel.

I want her to do ina bauer before 3A so bad, like in her juniour years with 2A, its so beautiful

now that would be next level. I think ina bauer entry must be more difficult than the current entry that she does.

Catalina Estevez 1 Алёна, 2 Лиза, 3 Рика, В ТОЧКУ 💐👍

@Ada Rodriguez veamos: - Kihira no tiene un 3A estable, se cae en una, y otra la hace bien, recuerda que desde su última temporada junior y sus 2 temporadas senior, no tiene 3A estable. - You igual que Kihira, en su primera temporada senior hace bien un 3A y en el otro se cae. Ya ni mencionar su etapa junior (donde empezó a saltar sus 3A) por que paso desapercibida. En resumen, tampoco es estable. - Alena para ser su primera temporada senior (ojo en junior nunca puso un 3A) tiene un 3A estable, por ahi que se le habrá escapado un error, pero no ha tenido caidas, algo que el público y jueces consideran teniendo en cuenta que es su debut. - Hay que tener en cuenta que bajo este sistema, todos los saltos se aprecian y califica muy bien por los jueces si tienen: entradas y salidas complejas, cobertura en el hielo, ejecución del salto, técnica y altura (por ahi me olvido algo). En el caso del 3A de Alena, cumple todos los requisitos. En el caso de Kihira, sólo tiene técnica y altura, no cumple todos los requisitos. Es por eso que en las competiciones principales (eventos de GP, y en el GPF) Alena supero en el GOE del 3A a Kihira. No se trata sólo de que el salto sea alto o de libro de texto, se trata de la calidad como presentas el salto y el puntaje que se logra en las competencias nivel A importantes (no incluye eventos B o nacionales). Las 2 veces que Alena (en nivel senior) se enfrentó con su 3A al 3A de Kihira, la supero eso es comprobable al ver la nota técnica. Ojo no incluyo ni Europeos, 4 Cc ni mundiales, por que no se enfrentaron directamente, tampoco incluyo a You, por que no compitio directamente con Alena, pero si nos basamos en suposiciones...Alena hubiera superado también a You. Lo siento, pero los resultados de competencias importantes NO MIENTEN.

@@itsallgoodman1244 I know! but on the other hand it requires a lot of technique and power. Since they are so little at least they have way less power and time to train it and do correctly. jmo

Not only attempting, but successfully landing

3A by 25 yo would be more impressive in my opinion

А потом отрастает пятая точка и фсе (((

@@sorciere12 Me too!! So cool to see. I wish there was a cut off at Olympics so we could actually see women skate and win, and then see a different section where the teens compete. A 14yo isn't a woman.

@@nataliaeskova533 Лиза, видимо, не в курсе, как и японская фигуристка из этого видео с 3А в 25 лет. А также первопроходцы Мидори Ито и Тоня Хардинг.

Алихан Рахметов я не эксперт но слушала тренеров и олимпийских чемпионов и экспертов которые говорили о Алёне и Лизы, у Алёны легче и чуть выше аксель чем у Лизы но по технике Лиза активнее, я когда действительно смотрю на Алёну и Лизу не могу сказать кто лучше прыгает, обе супер.

@@user-fq9on7yv3j Ну наверное, так и есть, раз эксперты и заслуженные чемпионы говорят. Они больше меня в этом разбираются. Но меня впечатляет именно в исполнении Алёны! Особенно на этапе Гран-При во Франции.

Алихан Рахметов мне тоже Алёны аксели нравятся, но в некоторых выступлениях Лиза так технично прыгнет аксель под музыку что мурашки по телу, я же уже написала что не могу Алёну с Лизой сравнить, очень красиво прыгают наши две попрыгушки триксели.

@@user-fq9on7yv3j Елизавете большой респект за мужество и волю к победе! Что не сдаётся перед молодёжью и разучивает сложные элементы.

Алихан Рахметов 👍👍👍💐

I doubt they're going to survive until seniors with all those jumps

​@@hannibaljustincase9985 lol. not with those jumps, of course. they will learn more. americunts were saying the same about trusova and shcherbakova, when they were 12-13, and look what happened

@@alexanderbakulin8836 I'm not American, and I definitely enjoy a lot of Russian skaters, but you have to be blind to not see how Sasha lost her consistency and Anna looks borderline anorexic to keep her quads

@@hannibaljustincase9985 no, you only have to be not a hater, to see that, in additon to learning new jumps, sasha has IMPROVED her consistency on quads this season, even comparing to what she had last year, not speaking of 2 years ago, when she was falling on her arse the whole season. check the actual statistics numbers and see for yourself. sasha had landed only two clean quads in her first junior season, and even then haters like you were saying that she will lose everything. and you have to be an idiot, to say that someone looks "anorexic", since anorexia is a mental disorder.russian girls are only getting better and bigger in numbers every year, while jealous foreigners are wishing them to fail. but would you like it or not, russian girls will continue to dominate and getting better, since skating is enormously popular in russia, while in your country this sport is dead, and nothing will save your favorites from losing to russians.

@@alexanderbakulin8836 Sasha literally got 1 out of 3 quads at her last competition, same goes for Anna. And of course you can look 'anorexic' as it it a mental disorder that also affects your physical health. And I'm going to repeat myself, I'm not hating on Sasha nor Anna, but the technique of jumping is not sustainable. As we have seen on Julia, Evgenia, Alina etc. I wish them all the best, wish them to keep those quads and get as many medals as possible, but I just don't see them keeping it all until the Olympics. You also have to consider how landing those jump is going to affect their joints, bones etc. We truly have no clue what, for example, constantly landing quads in a long term will do for a female hip- as they're build differently than a male hip. Russian girls are definitely pushing this sport, but I wish it was simply pursued with more thoughts and care.

One of my favorite red velvet b-sides!

I stole it from her and used it for my SINGLE axel... I can't imagine a triple

Wow! I hope you achieve that dream and if you don't, I think destiny has another plan for you

@@jungmovity8443 thank you 😳
