there are threads for favorite spins...moves...but i'm wondering what's everyone's favorite jump that they can do and also their favorite jump to watch...mine's double toe..and for some strange reason i get thrilled when I see someone do a double axel (maybe that's because i'm working on it and know how hard it really is!

My favorite jump is either a double salchow or an axel, probably my best jumps, too. My favorite jump to attempt is triple salchow (1/4 underrotated, urgh!!).

I love watching double axels, too, for some reason. It's probably because I have such difficulty with them. I have a pretty bad wrap on my double axel (not the single, though), 2loop, and 2flip. I just seem not to be able to press my free leg down to cross at the ankle with my other foot. I can really appreciate that jump being landed cleanly. It seems so difficult!

Hm with my limited repertoir of jumps (being rather new at this sport) I'd have to say my favorite jump is the half flip-toe loop combo, followed by waltz jump... then maybe lutz-ballet jump combo.

My favourite jump to watch is probably the triple salchow or the double axel. But my favourite jump to do at the moment is the toe loop. However, all I can do so far is a 3 jump - toe loop combination, but I'm slowly getting there! :)

My favourite jump is the Mazurka. I love how it floats in the air like a leaf who has been struck by a gust.
Does anyone know whom this fantastic jump has been named after? Any information will be greatly appreciated by yours truely,
Torrance

There's a thread in "On Ice" about the Mazurka that you can check.

My two favorite figure skating moves I like to see are the lutz and the salchow.

I gave up skating because of my own lazyness and now i regret greatly. So now i can only watch jumps. Lutz is hard and very beautiful, axel too. Salchow is not preffered by me cos it's not so exciting

The lutz is definitely one of the more complicated jumps. The salchow is rather complicated too... for me at least. I screw up the landing each time. Damn it! I'll get it one day... :)

My fave jump atm is the loop, probably because I've just started to landed it cleanly and hold the landing. My fave jump to watch would be either the axel or lutz.
