(at least I hope this is an Axel. I'm jump recognition deficient)

AgnesNitt, you're correct it is an axel. And it's a wonderful one at that. Thanks for posting. That one is going into my favorites!

That is AMAZING. Thanks for posting.

Also love your signature Agnes, haha, and ISk8NYC knows why! (spotted her in the stands just after my loop fall at easterrns, lol - might not have gotten up as quickly had I not!)

What a beautiful clean jump!

Does holding his breath help? Hope he smiled afterwards.

And such smooth motion. Does that require a special camera?

Judging by the triples I see men do at my rink (not 3A though) I don't think it's holding his breathe so much as it's so quick you don't take a breathe during the rotation
