Quadruple Lutz: Men

Brandon Mroz, the 2009 U.S. silver medalist and the 2006 & 2007 Junior Grand Prix Final silver medalist, is credited with landing the first quadruple Lutz jump in a sanctioned competition at the 2011 Colorado Springs Invitational, and was subsequently ratified by the International Skating Union after video review. He landed it again in the short program at the 2011 NHK Trophy, becoming the first skater to land it in international competition.



Other men who have since landed the jump in competition include: Vladislav Sesganov (RUS), Boyang Jin (CHN), Nathan Chen (USA), Mikhail Kolyada (RUS), Yuzuru Hanyu (JPN), Alexander Samarin (RUS), Daniel Grassl (ITA), Vincent Zhou (USA), Stephen Gogolev (CAN), and Dmitri Aliev (RUS).

We also have a discussion for the Ladies here.

What other men are working on the quad Lutz? Who does your favorite?

Nicolas Nadeau and Conrad Orzel have both landed it in training, the latter was trying it in competition a couple years ago. Conrad Orzel can do all 5 quads regularly enough to post a training session in which one he lands all 5.

all his wonderful quads were done prior to his injury... since then, he's only tried the 4t and with difficulty... he doesn't even include a lutz in his FP

Adam Siao Him Fa also did one at the World Team Trophy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGfwWVB8ja8#t=50s
