triple loop

Three-rotation ice leap

A triple loop is a figure skating jump where the skater takes off from a back outside edge, rotates three times in the air, and lands on the same edge of the same foot.

It's considered one of the more difficult triple jumps because the takeoff provides less momentum than toe-assisted jumps: She landed a clean triple loop in her free skate.
