SOCHI, September 30, Boris Khodorovsky. Figure skater Matvey Vetlugin said , which will introduce a quadruple loop into the programs this season.
Vetlugin trains in Alexei Mishin's group. The 19-year-old skater is a bronze medalist at the 2022 Russian Cup final. Last season he took 10th place at the Russian Championship.
«A quadruple loop will be added this season. It has almost been mastered. Salchow was left for next year. Mastering quadruple jumps is a very individual process,» Vetlugin said.
“»First of all, you need to pay attention to how easily the corresponding triple jump is performed and whether there is a reserve left for one more revolution. If you are confident in yourself, you need to start doing it. When you approach the appropriate level of triple jump execution, mastering the quadruple jump does not take so much time. In March, I swung at a quadruple lutz, but suffered a torn ligament and postponed mastering this jump until better times,” Vetlugin added.
