difference between all of the other jumps

In order of least to most difficulty under the ISU Judging System, the six most common jumps are:

The toe loop jump is a toe jump that takes off from the back outside edge & lands on the same back outside edge (in other words, a toe-pick assisted loop jump, although the mechanics of the two jumps r very different). This is sometimes known in Europe as a cherry flip. Double or triple toe loops r often seen as the second jump of a combination. As solo jumps, they r most commonly entered from a three turn.

The salchow jump (pronounced ''sal-kow''), named for its originator Ulrich Salchow, is an edge jump. It takes off from a back inside edge & lands on the back outside edge of the opposite foot. Salchows r most often preceded by a forward outside 3 turn, but a mohawk entrance is not unusual.

The loop jump is another edge jump, launched from the back outside edge & landing on the same back outside edge. It is also known in Europe as the Rittberger after its inventor, Werner Rittberger. Loops can be done as the second jump in a combination.

The flip jump is a toe jump that takes off from a back inside edge & lands on the back outside edge of the opposite foot. A flip is usually preceded by a forward outside 3 turn or forward inside mohawk.

The lutz jump, named for its originator Alois Lutz, is a toe jump that takes off from a back outside edge & lands on the back outside edge of the opposite foot. The lutz is a counter-rotated jump. Lutzes can often be identified by the long, backward diagonal glide preparation, though this is not necessary to do a lutz.

The axel jump, named for its originator Axel Paulsen, is an edge jump launched on the forward outside edge & landed on the back outside edge of the opposite foot. Because it has a forward takeoff but lands backwards, a single axel actually has 1.5 rotations.

waltz jump is the easiest jump.
heres an example

toe loop is usually what people learn nxt.

salchow is next, alot of ppl do this wrong, they ''spin'' instead of ''check''

loop is what u learn nxt, ppl find this hard cause this is the first jump u actually have to JUMP & ROTATE.

Flip is nxt - u use ur right toe to pick & land on ur right foot, u also take off on ur inside edge.

Lutz is next, same as flip except u take off on ur outside edge.

axel is next & hardest single, its what im working on, u have to start of as a waltz jump & rotate 1 & 1/2 times in the air landing on ur back outside edge
http://youtube.com/watch?v=8tInU6v_COI&feature=channel

then u start the doubles, same as the singles but u rotate twice in the air.

the examples & just one way to do it, most jumps there r variations into the jump, such as the salchow.

Here r basic starter level jumps in order from least difficult, & their (rotaions)

Waltz jump (1/2)
Sal chow(1)
toe loop(1)
loop(1)
flip(1)
lutz(1)
axel(1 1/2)



And once u get higher up:

Double sal chow(2)
double toe loop(2)
double loop(2)
double flip(2)
double lutz(2)
double axel(2 1/2)

And then on to triples.

Well the differences can be:

# of Rotations
Entry
Exit
jumping off backwards/forwards
