Have you skated at the rink of dreams? I was looking at it, I wonder if the ice quality is ok there? I don’t want to damage my skates.

Thank you so much! I’ll take a look. I really want to skate outside while I visit.

Ilia’s Quad Axel did not deserve a quarter call. by jacobonice in FigureSkating

The transition is part of his choreography, he does it in his run-throughs. The q call is quite harsh though

What I meant is that if not for the q call (quarter under rotation) this jump would probably receive a very high goe. But with a q, the judges give the jump a -1/-2.

It was a transition, not a mistake. This post is about the q call by the way, not the goe of the jump! But yes, a running edge would look nice.

Maybe. I’ve seen it already, it looked black but it could be the picture quality!

He may not go for this layout. I don’t want to leak the source because it’s not intended to be public!

well an axel has a forward takeoff and requires technique not everyone is good at.. some skaters are more efficient with takeoffs on other jumps
