The "age started skating" thread made me think of this.

As a skater and knowing how other skaters think, what is the hardest jump you have done in your dreams? Seriously!!!

The hardest jump I have ever done in a dream was a quad flip (with Irina Slutskaya watching).

triple axel. I actually kicked hubby in my sleep. I dream pretty vividly, and it was astounding that I *felt* the lift, the carry and the rotation. Funny I didn't feel the landing, which is my problem in real life.

Axel. It was so "floaty!"

Triple loop...

Funny you should ask this today--I dreamed about skating this morning (between 5am when I woke up the first time and 6:30 when my alarm went off) I didn't dream about a big, multi-rotational jump, just side toe hops with huge height. A little back ground--I quit doing them 3 or 4 months ago because I fell on one and hit my head, with a resulting mild concussion. I haven't gotten up the nerve to try them again....yet. I do see them in my future.

A huge delayed axel. I guess I don't dream very big.

Michigansker,

I'm with you, big delayed axel. And of course, double loops. =-)

I did a 7 triple program with triple lutz/triple loop and won the olympics, before waking up just as the medal is about to be put on my neck. I dream that a lot.

Must have been a triple lutz....I hung up there by the ceiling rotating around and around forever! I love skating dreams....I skate in the strangest places.

I think I dreamt once that I did a double loop by mistake, lol (I was aiming for single). I also dreamt once that I was practicing jumps in my living room and was doing axel-double combos. (I wish!!)
