I don't watch a lot of sport, but I do watch tv coverage of figure skating when I can. Figure skating includes jumps, spins and step sequences. Here is my reminder about how to recognise the different jumps.
Toe loop (toe jump): take off back outside edge, toe pick assisted, land same foot back outside edge.
Salchow (edge jump): take off back inside edge, land same foot back outside edge.
Loop (edge jump): take off back outside edge, land same foot back outside edge.
Euler / Half Loop: take off back outside edge, land other foot inside edge.
Flip (toe jump): take off back inside edge, land other foot back outside edge.
Lutz (toe jump): take off back outside edge, toe pick assisted, land other foot back outside edge.
Skaters often prepare to jump with a long diagonal backward glide.
Axel (edge jump): take off forward outside edge, land other foot back outside edge.
This means that a single Axel is 1.5 revolutions, a double 2.5, etc.
