Jump Combinations In a jump combination the landing foot of a jump is the take-off foot of the next jump. One full revolution on the ice between the jumps (free foot can touch the ice, but no weight transfer) keeps the element in the frame of the definition of a jump combination.
Jump Sequences A jump sequence consists of two jumps of any number of revolutions, beginning with any listed jump, immediately followed by an Axel type jump with a direct step from the landing curve of the first jump to the take-off curve of the Axel jump.
Executions of jump not counted in Jumps combination or sequence If in a jump combination or sequence a skater falls or steps out of a jump and immediately executes another jump(s), the jump(s) after the mistake are not counted, and the call will be the executed jump(s) before the mistake + sequence + the executed jump(s). The jumps after the mistake are marked with an *. 2A(hop)+2A Call: 2A+Seq+2A* 2A+1Eu (fall/step out) +3S Call: 2A+1Eu+Seq+3S* By doing this all the executed jumps will be visible on the computer screen and it will be easy to follow the requirements of the repetition rule. The Judges GOE refer to the entire element performed.
A jump will be considered as “quarter” if it is missing rotation of a ¼. This jump will be indicated by the Technical Panel to the Judges and in the protocols with a “q” symbol after the element code.
Under-rotated jumps
A jump will be considered as “Under-rotated” if it has missing rotation of more than a ¼ but less than ½ revolution. An under-rotated jump will be indicated by the Technical Panel to the Judges and in the protocols with a “<” symbol after the element code. Jumps identified as under-rotated will receive reduced base values which are listed in the designated row of the SOV.
Downgraded jumps
A jump will be considered as “Downgraded” if it has “missing rotation of ½revolutions or more”. A downgraded jump will be indicated by the Technical Panel tothe Judges and in the protocols with a “<<” symbol after the element code. A jump identified as downgraded will be evaluated using the scale of values (SOV chart) for the element of one rotation less (i.e. a downgraded triple will be evaluated with the scale of values for the corresponding double).
