Therefore, a single jump is actually 1.5 rotations. Invented by Axel Paulsen who performed jump on speed skates. The usual approach is from a backward outside three turn on the right foot. The usual approach is a long, shallow edge cutting diagonally across the rink. Named after Alois Lutz .
Landing is on right foot.
Like the salchow, the usual approach is a three turn. Usually skaters approach this jump by skating backwards on two feet, with the left foot crossed in front of the right. The right leg swings to assist the rotation. The jump is named after Ulrich Salchow , who dominated skating in the early 1900's. The left foot is moved back and the toe pick is pushed into the ice to provide assistance at takeoff.
