Is a triple-triple really necessary for the Ladies discipline?

That 2Axel, 3Loop sequence was very good!

Great performance too!

Here are some more good fast ladies' triple loops that are neither telegraphed/slowed into nor second jumps in combination (some of them are combined with double toe afterward).

thanks gkelly, for these views. I was most impressed with Takeda's 3loop, and Sokolova's some what alhough she did take the preparation way beyond a 1/4 turn before take off. Others were in rhythm with turning circles and very cautiouslly executed.

Well, I think that triple/triples should be worth more. But people forget that the real benefit of having the triple/triple comes in the short program, where you can basically fit in another triple.
