Congrats - may this be the first of many :)
Way to go! I once heard that every jump takes about a thousand falls to master, so you are probably ahead on this one.

congrats on the jump...but i think that the jumps come depending on how u train because different people spend different amount of time on certain jumps and if ur technical isnt correct, the jump will be off...all jumps come from the take-off...so if u got that down...u should be able to land any of your jumps in the future...congrats again

Congratulations! I remember when I first landed mine. It's the most amazing feeling on Earth when you feel your foot connect correctly with the ice after the right amount of rotations. :)

Oh, wow! Well done, that is seriously fantastic. :bow: :D
May it be the first of many, and may your double salchow be not long in following!

Yay!! Well done to you. That's excellent. May it be the first of many. Having said that, do be prepared for it to disappear on you every now and then. Everyone I know who lands their first axel struggles to get it consistent to start with, but now you've done it once, you know you can do it!
