<Li> An inside Axel is a 11⁄2 rotation jump that takes off from a forward inside edge and lands on the back outside edge of the same foot--the right foot, for a counterclockwise jump . This jump is sometimes known as a Böckl, after its inventor Willy Böckl . </Li> <P> In addition, an Axel entrance can be used as a take - off for flying spins . An Axel sit spin is also known as a flying reverse sit spin, and is essentially an Axel jump landed in a back sit spin . Rarely, skaters may also attempt a double Axel sit spin . In a flying open Axel sit spin, also known as a death drop, the skater achieves an almost horizontal position in the air (by kicking the takeoff leg backwards and to the side, instead of bringing it forward) before landing in a back sit spin . </P> <P> In general, the International Skating Union's new ISU Judging System discourages skaters from including variety jumps such as Axel variants in their competitive programs, because they count towards the maximum number of permitted jumps but carry a much lower point value than any double or triple jump that the skater could perform instead . Likewise, the IJS treats all flying spins equally and does not reward the additional difficulty of a double Axel sit spin . </P> <P> A toe Axel is not a real jump but is instead the name given to a flawed double toe loop jump . </P>
