It is like a half flip, but with an extra half rotation after the second toepick hits the ice and is thus landed backwards; or an alternate way of looking at it: it's like a flip, but with the toepick touched down halfway through. I just figured these out on a whim today.

I doubt this jump counts for anything, but it is a good exercise and very fun to do. You can keep stepping around - for instance by stepping on a toepick 4 times with a half rotation each time, you can do a "double" of this jump. It's not really a double at all though, because no height is required and even I can manage them.

Here's a video that I took today (you'll need the latest version of Quicktime (http://apple.com/quicktime) or MPLayer to play this:

That's not a jump, just hopping toe steps!

That's true. Once your left toe touches the ice, the jump is over, and the rest is just a little toe hop thing.

"unidentified hoppy thing" aka UHT.

I wonder...

Couls you do aflip but make the rotation more horizontal like a death drop?
