Bigger Salchow Entry

I have been working on a new salchow entry and trying to get comfortable with it. For whatever reason, I tend to scratch my toe before taking off so that has been causing me to lose speed and height in the jump.

I’m happy to share that I have (mostly) eliminated that toe scratch and that this jump is finally making some progress. I checked the timing on this video and looks like my air time is around 0.40 seconds, which should give me plenty of time to add another rotation. Hopefully soon!
