⛸️ Behind the Skill: Double Toe Loop The double toe loop is often a skater’s first double jump and a key building block for higher-level combinations. It takes off from a back outside edge with assistance from the opposite toe pick, which helps generate lift into the air. From there, skaters must pull into a tight air position to complete two full rotations before landing cleanly on a back outside edge. Success comes down to strong edge control, quick rotation, and a controlled check-out on the

Figure skating jumps are broken down into two types: edge jumps and toe jumps. To perform an edge jump, a skater uses the edge (either inside or outside) of one skate blade to propel themselves into the air without allowing the other skate to touch the ice. The three edge jumps are the axel, the loop, and the salchow. When executing a toe jump, a skater plants their toe pick (point) into the ice to help launch themselves into the air. The three toe jumps performed in competition are the flip, th
