Russian Coach and Director of Group Programs Eteri Tutberidze Daniel Gleikhengauz said that at the moment they were not trying to do quintuple jumps, even with a fishing rod.
Ilya Malinin, 19, represents the United States and is the first figure skater in the world to properly perform a quad Axel at international tournaments.
— To be honest, I’m not sure that five jumps are like quadruple jumps. Malinin’s quadruple axel is something incredible! If in a few years everyone gets there, I’ll be surprised.
As for the quintuples, I don’t see any opportunity to do this permanently in the program. It’s somewhere very far away. Maybe I’m late, and the fifths will have to jump at some point. But we haven’t tried it yet, even with a fishing rod, “a correspondent reports, reporting Gleikhengauz’s words.
