@@adriana-ll3zd she's so happy she landed she just about bursts into tears. you can see better on the full video of her doing it. it makes me cry as well
It’s so sad because she was told her life she could never do it, she was nothing but “trailer trash” compared to the perfect competition. Constantly marked down for presentation. At that single moment everything was perfect, she was able to say that she was the best at something and you can see it on her face.
Midori will always have the most legendary triple axel imo. She gets so high up it's like she's literally flying across the rink. Mao's was always very pretty, and she needs to be commended for the longevity of hers as well!
Mao WAS commented for the longevity of her 3A! The video tells she's holds the record as the woman with the most 3As landed internationally! The 3A was a staple to Mao's skating for full 10 years!
ayanna I saw Midori Ito complete a triple axel at an ice skating show once. You are right, absolutely legendary. Not only did it look like she was flying, the height she got was unlike any other skater I have ever seen. I swear she could have jumped right over another skater, that’s how high it was!
I was going to say I thought Maos was pretty to watch. I like Midoris as well. Nothing against Tonya but hers looked tilted more,but may be that's how it's suppose to look.
Yes, Midori and Tonya were simply in another league. But Tonya was not as consistent with her triple axel as Midori was, although Tonya did have a Midori-like period with such consistency in her triple axel, and that was in 1991.
Midori had this over Tonya in almost every jump. Midori was always in perfect position in the air. Tonya starts to tilt on her way down on every triple but it didn’t affect the others. Midori’s is hands down the best in history. My second favorite was Nagasu’s at the Olympics although a one off really doesn’t give you bragging rights.
I think the extremely height, full rotation and "vibrance" are keys to make a 3A "pleasant to watch". I think both Midori and Tonya had that height and vibrancy. But Midori's leg position and Tonya's WILD axis made them look like there was something wrong.
Which one is my favorite. That's easy. Midori hands down. No one to this day (June 29 19) has performed a better triple axel. Her triple axel at the 1990 worlds LP in Halifax was so incredible that the UK and Canadian commentators said it was probably the best triple axel in the competiton including the men. Her triple axel at Albertville in 92 at the 3 minute 10 second mark of a 4 minute LP was so unbelievable that the olympic channel honored it as an impossible moment at the olympic games. Midori is the greatest technical skater ever and the queen of the triple axel. If she was in her prime today, she would be landing quads.
I read somewhere that she actually tried to do a quad but when she decided not to train it because she noticed that her body (leg or ankle, can't remember exactly) wouldn't be able to withstand the impact of landing
@@schlagsahne394 I saw a japanese video a while ago with english subtitles where Midori was being interviewed and talking about her 1988 to 1992 years. I think she said she had attempted triple axels and perhaps quads at 14 or 15 but had fractured her ankle. Her coach, Machiko Yamada who Midori lived with, then forbid Midori attempting them. She then said that when she only finished 5th in Calgary with all the triples she did vs. what Katarina did in winning the gold, she decided she had to introduce the triple axel into her skating to win on the international stage. It is amazing how quickly she did it. She barely missed landing a clean 3A at the 1988 skate america, she then landed the 3A at a home town event before landing it internationally at the 1988 NHK.

Good effort from all these skaters but Midori Ito truly is the best jumper in the history of ladies’ figure skating. Although some people might think the other skaters included in this clip have so-called “cleaner” position in the air, I would beg to differ. Most of the other skaters (sole exception being Tanya Harding) learned to execute this jump by relying on really tight turns to complete the 3.5 rotation, as opposed to powerful take off. Consequently, most of them lack height and distance. Midori’s triple axel has the most height and distance because of her athleticism and how she takes off. Tanya arguably managed to get the same height, but she couldn’t quite match the distance because Tanya’s technique somehow would cause her to lean out out of the axis and backwards,, which forced her to have to re-center her body and subsequently lose the momentum to create good distance. Midori on the other hand is good at keeping her body position either centered or at least leaning forward (instead of backwards), Ultimately Midori pole vaults her triple axel, while the rest hopped and twisted their bodies into a pencil.
Just because I absolutely adore Mao, I'm going to throw in some more incredible records she has accomplished with the triple axel. 1. Was the youngest lady to do the triple axel (bested by Rika now) 2. Is the oldest lady to do the triple axel 3. Is the only lady to have completed the triple axel in two separate olympics 4. First woman to land a triple axel in the short program at the Winter Olympics 5. First woman to land two triple axel jumps in the same program There is so much more to this tremendously talented (and in my eyes, slightly underrated) athlete than the axel, her signatures also includes her intricate stepsequences, spirals, and one hand biellmans.
@@vxdkx ummm actually she just aint olympic gold that is only thing she cant compare to Yuna Kim. And actually both Yuna and Mao are truly genius of genius with out one of them the other one will never be like now. And most of all Yuna isnt the best. I think she has some lack point too like everyone and if you compare both you will know that their style , teachnic , passion , will are totally different like 2 sides of mirror so if you ask me , you have eyes you MUST how great Mao is. Like yuna and her lutz, Mao and the axel Like Mao's flutz and Yuna stiffness body SAME that why rivalry is the best era. Mao and Yuna's mirror effect make them look like twin and when the game begin its a doom!
joining those saying that Midori Ito's 3A is still the greatest after all those years. While there are many things to appreciate about most of these ladies' axels (Rika's is tight and has fantastic flow and speed coming out, Mao's is light and airy, Liza has rock-solid technique ), Midori reaches a height and distance that are unsurpassed to this day. It's mind-boggling how high she gets and makes you wonder if she has springs in her legs. Plus, there was never a doubt about underrotations, even though she rotated visibly slower than every woman/girl in this video. And yet, even in real-time you could see her finishing the rotations in the air. Truly unmatched.
Midori still has THE best triple axel to this day. No one comes close to her in terms of the speed, height and distance she got on her jumps & THAT one in particular.
Midori and Harding's 3A amaze me. The height and distance travels across the ice is so impressive. I'm just not a fan of the skaters who rotate very fast because they are tiny but there is very little height and they don't really travel across the ice. It just leaves me kind of bored.
So much talent. I have to say that Midori is still the best 3A ever... and then followed by Mao Asada, Tonya Harding and Alena Kostornaia. All are incredible.
don’t know what it is about tonya‘s 3A it’s just that it’s so much more interesting to watch in my opinion. you can see the passion and you can see the strength it’s honestly amazing. the only ones that come close to her are midori and mao in my opinion
Her Skate America one in '91 and '91 Worlds surely... Midori being her equal in this range. Mao though more consistent just seemed to hover over the ice and get it done... almost impossible to compare the two among the others. No one has touched them technically for years in jumps and spins.
It’s more interesting because Harding’s is all power, she is easily 10-15lbs heavier than the others, (put 10lbs on Midori and see if she gets the height like does) so Tonya had to figure a way to not only get the height but land it without killing herself. She is one remarkable athlete
Even for the girls who fell, the recovery is amazing they just get up and carry on like it's nothing. Must be hard to do that knowing that you didn't do what you were hoping for
Midori Ito's triple axels are by far the best. High, long, fast and beautifully straight in the air. Technically, Midori's free programmes were not surpassed for nearly 30 years until 2018 with Sacha Trusova doing quads.
Midori Ito for the height and for being the first, Tonya Harding for the power and also the height, and for her sheer joy when she first landed it. All the others are impressive, but I'm more into the height of the jump and the distance, than the sheer speed of the spins or even effortlessness. Just seeing in their faces the sheer effort to make the jump makes Midori andTonya's triple axels more exciting to me to watch.
Mao Asada is queen of this, period. And even though she had one mistake in the Olympics, her Bells of Moscow program was a masterpiece in every sense of the word. Love that she came back for Worlds and skated it clean!
Actually, I'm impressed with Ayaka Hosoda's 3A and love her jumps! She landed 3A first time in 2017 and finally landed at Japanese national competition at the age of 23 in 2018. She showed that you can jump 3A no matter how old she is or no matter how she is known. Not many people knows about her, but I hope she can jump 3A at international competitions as a late bloomer!
Tonya Harding: • First American woman to land a triple axel in competition. • The first woman ever to land a triple axel in a short program. • The first woman ever to land a triple axel in combination. • The first woman ever to land 2 triple axels in the same competition. Let’s never forget that. Thank you, great video! Btw, Tonya and Midori are the best... The others are nothing compared to this two.
The sheer power midori and Tonya went into their 3a's with was scary as fk but insanely mesmerizing. The height alone was incredible. I felt like you never had to question their rotations and now everything is so small and quick to rotate, the landings suffer immensely.
There is Midori and there is everybody else. She is the only one who uses the speed to launch herself into the air so she doesn't have to rotate all that fast. It's a fearless, perfect jump, with complete control in the air. Tonya had the same power but no control and always leaning. None of the others is even worth mentioning. I do think Mirai's was excellent but someone who only lands it once can't be mentioned in the same breath as Midori.
I’m lowkey astonished ppl can make videos like this. I do not possess the stick-to-it-iveness & execution to make something like this, though I want to all the time. Excellent display of high level functioning 👍
I just love how every time they land after succeeding the triple axel they have a moment of celebration by expressing their joy. You can see the happiness and pride in their faces. Especially with Tonya and Midori. (:
I still enjoy Midori's and Tonya's the most, after all these years...I don't think anyone can match the excitement generated from 1989-1992! Midori's speed and lightness, and Tonya's pure adrenalin and power...I go back to these constantly. Mao Asada managed to do it and make it look easy (good for her) but it looked so easy that it wasn't interesting or exciting to watch! Almost like a walley.
These ladies are incredible! I was proud the first time I skated backwards and didn't trip over my own feet. My career as an ice skater was predictably short. 😂
I love Midori Ito's triple axel to death. I think her technique, timing and trajectory was as good as it gets aside from her high free leg that worked for her but would not necessarily be ideal for most people. One woman everybody seems to overlook would be Tiffany Chin. Please take a look at this triple axel and tell me if you have not seen a more balanced triple axel from anybody else ever... ua-cam.com/video/GE9pApU53W0/v-deo.html

I do think Mirai's was excellent but someone who only lands it once can't be mentioned in the same breath as Midori.
Tonya's only leaned that first time at Nationals...by Skate America and Worlds they were aligned correctly.
The infamous Tonya Harding absolutely amazing ice skater 🥰
All I see is a bunch of queens making history
Queen Mao Asada. 💕💕
Yuhana Yokoi also have land 3A in practice and some Japan competition
Hanna Yoshida, Riko Takino and Sui Takeuchi as well
0:11 こんなん誰も超えられないでしょ
男子含めても間違いなくトップ
Something about the way Mao does it is unreal
Mao Asada :)
I’m lowkey astonished ppl can make videos like this. I do not possess the stick-to-it-iveness & execution to make something like this, though I want to all the time. Excellent display of high level functioning 👍
I just love how every time they land after succeeding the triple axel they have a moment of celebration by expressing their joy. You can see the happiness and pride in their faces. Especially with Tonya and Midori. (:
I remember seeing a video about some Elsa’s on every Disney On Ice having a triple axel in their Let It Go routine but never seem to succeed.
Tonya's speed keeps me on the edge and Midori's height is just incredible.
Tonya’s 3A in the 91 Skate America long program (in the white costume) still sends shivers down my spine
Tonya Harding is my favorite 👏
Aliona kostornaia nailed it a few times now too ♡
I still enjoy Midori's and Tonya's the most, after all these years...I don't think anyone can match the excitement generated from 1989-1992! Midori's speed and lightness, and Tonya's pure adrenalin and power...I go back to these constantly. Mao Asada managed to do it and make it look easy (good for her) but it looked so easy that it wasn't interesting or exciting to watch! Almost like a walley.
These ladies are incredible! I was proud the first time I skated backwards and didn't trip over my own feet. My career as an ice skater was predictably short. 😂
真央ちゃんバンクーバーのフリーでミスはあったものの3A全て決めてるのに3A飛べないキムヨナとあんなに点数の差が出たの明らかに可笑しかったよね...
What i like about Tonya is she made skating look like an actual sport
Absolutely 💯
I absolutely adore rika and lizas axels.
“First women in history to do three!” The way he said that made me laugh so hard
Mao Asada is the best skater forever for me
My fav is Mirai Nagasu’s because it’s so pretty and her backstory behind getting left out of Sochi moves me so much
can we just appreciate all the efforts these skates had to put in to master just one jump?
I love Midori Ito's triple axel to death. I think her technique, timing and trajectory was as good as it gets aside from her high free leg that worked for her but would not necessarily be ideal for most people.
One woman everybody seems to overlook would be Tiffany Chin. Please take a look at this triple axel and tell me if you have not seen a more balanced triple axel from anybody else ever... ua-cam.com/video/GE9pApU53W0/v-deo.html
Go ladies GO! Liza is my favorite!
I love how everybody's reactions to Triple Axels are as ecstatic and loud as to a score in a football game xD
伊藤みどりさん、ものすごく高いな…高すぎて笑っちゃうw
あんなに高く飛んで、着氷する時怖くないのかな。
ちょっと変な転び方したら足首やっちゃいそう…
Should add Alena kostornaias 3a!
У Алёны самый красивый Аксель 😍
