Elizaveta Tuktamysheva believes that quadruples can be jumped as an adult.
“Of course, not everyone copes with puberty – some end up with sports at that time. Technique can fall apart because of a new body.
How to dispel the myth that quads are for pre-pubescent girls? Elisabeth Tursynbayeva jumped a quad at the 2019 World Cup when she was 19 years old. It seemed to me that at that time she was still not fully formed, her body was very ringing. But, in general, it is possible to perform quads after this period.
We see that girls learn the triple axel after puberty – they have enough strength, opportunity and motivation. You just need to work more on the quadruples and have motivation. I think, as in the case of the triple axel, this myth will be dispelled with time – quadruple will be shown more often.
Sasha Trusova jumped a quadruple lutz at the show last season, Kamila Valieva also showed quads with an already formed body – last season she collected two quadruples in the free skate.
So it is realistic to keep ultra-si jumps after puberty,” Tuktamysheva wrote.
