For other uses, see Quad (disambiguation).

A quad, or quadruple, is a figure skating jump with four or more, but fewer than five, revolutions.[1] Most quadruple jumps have exactly four revolutions; the quadruple Axel has 4½ revolutions, although no figure skater to date has completed this jump in competition. The quadruple toe loop and quadruple Salchow are the two most commonly skated in the discipline. Quadruple jumps have become increasingly common among World and Olympic level men's single skaters, to the point that not having one in a program may be considered a handicap.[2]

In the singles competition for men :

  • The first person to land a ratified quadruple jump in competition was Kurt Browning in 1988. He landed a quad Toe loop.
  • Lausanne, Switzerland - 1998 Junior Grand Prix Finals - Timothy Goebel of the United States became the first man to successfully land a quadruple Salchow, and in particularly, a quad Salchow in combination.
  • On September 16, 2011, in the short program at the Colorado Springs Invitational, Brandon Mroz landed the first successful quad Lutz in a sanctioned competition.[3][4][5][6][7] 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.
  • No quadruple Axel has been ratified yet.

In the singles competition for ladies, only Miki Ando has landed a ratified quadruple jump. In the pair skating competition, top skaters are executing either quad throw jumps or quad twist lifts.

Pairs

Execution

A jump harness is often employed in training quads.[75] Max Aaron stated that the smallest error may make the difference in the success of a quad attempt: "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."[75] Ross Miner stated that the quality of the ice sometimes plays a role but more on the quad salchow than the toe loop.[75] Practicing quads increases the risk of injury and wear and tear on a skater's body.[75]
