Revision as of 00:32, 28 December 2021

For other uses, see Quad (disambiguation).

A quad, or quadruple, is a figure skating jump with at least four (but fewer than five) revolutions.[1] All quadruple jumps have four revolutions, except for the quadruple Axel, which has four and a half revolutions. As of 2021, Only Yuzuru Hanyu has attempted the quadruple Axel in competition. The quadruple toe loop and quadruple Salchow are the two most commonly performed quads. Quadruple jumps have become increasingly common among World and Olympic level men's single skaters, to the point that not performing a quad in a program has come to be seen as a severe handicap.[2][3] This phenomenon is often referred to as the "quad revolution".[4] Since 2018, quadruple jumps have also become an increasingly common feature of women's skating, although they are not allowed under the ISU rules in the ladies' short program.[4][5] The first person to land a ratified quadruple jump in competition was Canadian Kurt Browning in 1988. Miki Ando became the first female to do so, in 2002, and is now one of six women to have landed a ratified quadruple jump in international competition.

History of first jumps

In singles competition for men:

  • On March 25, 1988, at the World Championships in Budapest, Hungary, Canadian skater Kurt Browning landed the first ratified quadruple jump (a quad toe loop) in competition.
  • On March 7, 1998, at the Junior Grand Prix Final in Lausanne, Switzerland, American skater Timothy Goebel landed the first ratified quadruple Salchow and, in particular, a quad Salchow in combination.
  • On September 16, 2011, in the short program at the Colorado Springs Invitational, American skater Brandon Mroz landed the first ratified quad Lutz in a sanctioned competition.[6][7][8][9][10] On November 12, he landed a ratified quad Lutz at the NHK Trophy, becoming the first skater to land successfully a quad Lutz in international competition.
  • On April 22, 2016, in the short program at the Team Challenge Cup in Spokane, United States, Japanese skater Shoma Uno landed the first ratified quadruple flip in competition.[11]
  • On September 30, 2016, in the short program at the Autumn Classic International in Montreal, Canada, Japanese skater Yuzuru Hanyu landed the first ratified quadruple loop (also known as the "Rittberger" in Europe) in competition.[12]
  • No quadruple Axel has yet been ratified.
  • No quadruple combinations (quadruple jumps followed by quadruple loop or toe loop) or sequences (quadruple jumps followed by any quadruple jumps except for quadruple loop or toe loop) have yet been ratified.

In singles competition for women:

  • On December 14, 2002, in the free skate at the Junior Grand Prix Final in The Hague, Netherlands, Japanese skater Miki Ando landed the first ratified quadruple Salchow in competition.
  • On March 10, 2018, in the long program at the World Junior Figure Skating Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria, Russian skater Alexandra Trusova landed the first ratified quadruple toe loop in competition. She is also the second woman to land a ratified quadruple Salchow, making her the first woman to complete two quads in one program, and two different types of quads in one program.[13]
  • On October 12, 2018, in the long program at the Junior Grand Prix in Yerevan, Armenia, Alexandra Trusova landed the first ratified quadruple Lutz in competition.
  • On December 7, 2019, in the long program at the Grand Prix Final in Torino, Italy, Alexandra Trusova landed the first ratified quadruple flip in competition. She also became the first woman to complete three different types of quads in one program.
  • On November 19, 2021, 14 year old Adeliia Petrosian became the first female figure skater to perform a quadruple loop (a.k.a. Rittberger in Europe) in singles competition while competing domestically as a senior on the Cup of Russia circuit, a qualifying series to the Russian Championships. During her free skate routine at the 5th qualifier event in the series held in Perm, Petrosian cleanly landed two quad loops, one in combination. Despite Petrosian’s feat, it won’t be ratified by the International Skating Union (ISU) as it was performed at a national competition. To be officially recognized, it will have to be repeated at an event held under the auspices of the ISU.[14] Petrosian qualified to compete on the senior level at the 2022 Russian Figure Skating Championships. She placed sixth in the short program and third in the free skate, where she again landed two quad loops cleanly.[15]

In pair skating competition:

Scoring

The quad jump is currently the highest scoring single element in the skater's program short of performing combinations. The current ISU scoring for quad jumps in base values is listed as, in descending order:

Quad axel; 12.5
Quad lutz; 11.5
Quad flip; 11
Quad loop; 10.5
Quad salchow; 9.7
Quad toeloop; 9.5

As of 2021, the quad axel remains to be performed in competition for the first time.[17]

Execution

A jump harness is often employed in training quads.[91] Quads require an average rotational frequency of around 340 rpm, with the peak rotational frequency usually exceeding 400 rpm.[92] The optimum height is estimated to be around 20 inches;[93] however, most skaters rarely go above 18 inches. This is partly because of the heaviness of the skates and partly because skaters have to maintain the balance between the energy put into the jump versus the energy put into the rotation.[92] Skaters begin rotating the jump as soon as they leave the ice,[4] but generally have less than two-thirds of a second to complete their rotation.[92] Efficient body contraction is also important due to conservation of angular momentum.[93] According to Deborah King, a professor of exercise and sports sciences at Ithaca College, quads have a slightly higher angular momentum than lower difficulty jumps, but the major difference is in how skaters control the moment of inertia.[94]

Greater understanding of successful jump technique has developed over time. Kurt Browning, the first skater to land a ratified quad in competition, has said that when training the jump, "we really just jumped as high as we could and pulled in as hard as we could and hoped for the best."[95] The smallest error may make the difference in the success of a quad attempt. Max Aaron has stated that "The minute your left arm is behind you, or your three-turn is too fast, if your hips don't turn in time, if your foot isn't in the right place, anything will throw you off."[91] Research indicates that changes in arm position of even three or four degrees can significantly affect the rotational speed.[94] According to Ross Miner, the quality of the ice can also affect the success of the jump, especially for the quad Salchow.[91]

Controversy

Practicing quads increases the risk of injury as well as wear and tear on a skater's body.[91] According to Aaron, "the force of a quadruple is huge," and practicing them means "you're going to fall a lot and take a beating."[91] There is a lack of research into the impact of quads on the joints, but the repetitive nature of jump training and the fact that skaters always land on the same foot means that skaters are at risk of developing microfractures that can become more serious with time. Because of this, some coaches try to limit the number of jump repetitions skaters do in practice.[93]

Concerns have been raised about the long-term impact of quads on the bodies of young skaters, especially girls. So far, only teenage girls have been able to land quads. The figure skating community remains divided about the sustainability of such jumps for women past puberty. Rafael Arutanian, coach of skaters such as Nathan Chen and Ashley Wagner, has questioned, "Will they still land these jumps at age 18 or 19? They are doing these jumps with bodies that have not developed yet, with bones that are still growing. What will they be at age 40? Will they all need new hips?"[4] His concern has been echoed by fellow coach Linda Leaver, who predicts that "it will be extremely rare for a female skater to be able to do multiple quadruple jumps past puberty." She added, "I also think careers for men will be shorter because of the stress on backs, knees, and ankles, and the body type will be more of a determinate in who can dominate the sport."[5] Quads are thought to favor those with lighter, slimmer bodies as they have a smaller moment of inertia.[95] The tight body contraction necessary for landing quads is harder for adult women due to their wider hips.[93]
