The Top 9 Quad Toe Jumpers of All Time in Womens Figure Skating
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 фев 2025
- This is a data-driven ranking of the best quad toe jumpers in the history of womens figure skating. Since this is an all-time ranking, current as of the end of the 22/23 season, it will inevitably change based on future results. As such, the plan is to release updates to this video every few seasons.
To be eligible for this ranking, a skater must have 12 or more quad toe attempts in their career.
The basis for this ranking is PoM (“Percentage of Max”), a metric calculated by dividing the number of points a skater received for a jump or set of jumps by the maximum number of points they could have received.
Specifically, the basis for this ranking is career 4T PoM, which is a skater’s 4T PoM across all of the 4T attempts in their career, taking into account the scale of values that was in effect at the time of each jump.
One advantage of PoM is that it factors in not only GOE, but also the base value impact of any calls that a jump received. PoM also makes it easier to compare jump performance across different seasons and scale of values.
It is important to note that when PoM is calculated for a set of jumps, it is a measure of both quality and consistency. This means that a skater with memorable jumps but uneven consistency may not necessarily rank higher than a skater with less noteworthy jumps but better consistency.
Some further explanation of PoM...
• At present, the maximum score for a 4T, ignoring bonuses, is 14.25. So, as a hypothetical example, a 4T right now with a score of 10.69 would have a PoM of 10.69 / 14.25 = 75.0%.
• Similarly, a set of three 4Ts with scores of 7.50, 9.50, and 11.50 would have a PoM of (7.50 + 9.50 + 11.50) / (14.25 x 3) = 66.7%.
• When calculating PoM for a 4T jumped as part of a combination or sequence, the base value impact of the non-4T part of the jump pass is excluded from both the numerator and denominator. (It wouldn’t be excluded if you were calculating PoM for the entire jump pass, however.) For example, for a 4T+2T, the 1.30 point impact of the 2T would be excluded. Also, it is a rare occurrence, but if a jump pass’s GOE was based on the non-4T part of the jump pass, it would be recalculated to be based on the 4T.
• Second-half bonuses are factored into the calculation of PoM. However, other bonuses, such as those sometimes seen in certain novice and domestic competitions, are generally excluded. Jump sequence adjustments, which were relevant prior to the 22/23 season; repetition penalties; and fall deductions are also excluded from the calculation of PoM. (Jump sequence adjustments would be factored in if you were calculating PoM for an entire jump pass, however.)
• Popped attempts at the jump being analyzed are not factored in due to the trickiness of collecting data for them.
The analysis underlying this ranking takes into account all competitions covered by SkatingScores, the invaluable and fairly comprehensive database of international and domestic competition results. However, SkatingScores is missing some significant Russian domestic events, especially at the novice level. In light of the high number of ultra-cs performed in Russian domestic events from the late 2010s onward, these important events have also been included in this analysis.
It is estimated that this analysis, in total, has taken into account over 95% of the ultra-cs that have been attempted in competition since the start of the IJS era, with those attempts missing mainly being from minor domestic events in Russia, in particular minor events outside of Moscow and St. Petersburg, as well as some minor domestic events in Japan and the United States.
Lastly, it should be noted that in the case of any skater who tested positive for performance enhancing drugs, their results are invalidated for purposes of this analysis starting from the season they tested positive, and ending at the point that they were cleared to compete again by the relevant international bodies.
Thanks for reading this and watching! Don’t miss the companion video to this one, which counts down the best quad toes of all time, as well as videos counting down the best overall quad jumpers and most pristine quads of all time, and the best jumpers and jumps of all time for each of the other quad types and for triple axels.
This channel also features videos for each season, starting with the 22/23 season, counting down the best quad toe jumpers and jumps, the best overall quad jumpers and most pristine quads, and the best jumpers and jumps for each of the other quad types and for triple axels.

Kamila’s quad toe is Honeslty one of the best in the world and the biggest, also considering the fact that it looks gorgeous
Despite my issues with her, I can't argue with the quality of her 4T. (As long as she isn't attempting it in combination 😅.) It's not my personal favorite - for me, that's probably Veronika Zhilina - but it can be excellent, regardless of how much some Russian hating fans like to complain about it.
У Камилы фулблейд на тулупе и преротация в 3/4. По технике лучший тулуп в мире у Трусовой
Kami’s axis on some of her jumps scare me but her quad toes can be beautiful
Kamila's quad is best of the best. Nobody else can do it with weigth and heigth of women's body like Kami has.
Looks about right 1st. Place was astonishing, very clean excellent technique. Great job to all their coaches. Peace and love, from San Antonio Texas ❤
It’s crazy to me how similar in quality Mia’s jumps are to Kat’s, Margarita’s, Alisa’s, and Masha’s, but her GOEs are much lower🤔
Yeah, I think what troubled me most was the scoring Mia's 4Ts got on the JGP last season, which was markedly stingy compared to the scores that some comparable 4Ts have gotten in the past. In any case, I was happy she made this countdown, as I don't think a lot of folks realize how groundbreaking some of her quad stats are by the standards of not only U.S. women, but non-Russian women altogether.
Who is Kat? Can we really compare the scores when they were given by different panels of judges on different competitions? Besides, it’s an open secret that nationals are generally scored higher than international competitions.
Sofya Akatyeva.
Having spent a lot of time on analyses like these, I can say your "open secret" doesn't really hold as much as some people believe. If you watch various videos on this channel, you'll find some skaters whose highest scored jumps were in int'l competition - Sasha being a good example of this for some of her jumps - and other skaters whose highest scored jumps were in domestic competition.
Even within a single country, you'll have some skaters whose jumps are scored quite generously in domestic competition - see Kamila Valieva last season - and others who are scored more strictly. And in international competition, you'll see less known skaters from small federations, like Inga Gurgenidze, get jump scores questionably lower than a well-known skater like Mao Shimada. So it's a lot more nuanced and complex picture than a lot of people think.
On the whole, though, if you're the kind of person who believes that "only int'l competitions count," then this channel probably isn't for you.
