the salchow is a one and a half rotation for a single, 2 1/2, for a double, and 3 1/2 for a tripple. So his single does look like a doubble but it is a 1 1/2 (single)
@weird0ishere ha ha I know, right? when he did it I am like wait..... wasnt that a double?? and then I look at the comments and everyones like you did a double you did a double ha ha glad to know I wasnt the only one who saw that
@99skatingstar it wasn't a single, but the double and triple was there...didn't u see??? u don't have to enter it with a 3turn u can enter a jump with footwork, crossovers etc
All of you so quick to blame him for doing a double instead of a single... did you ever stop to think that maybe the people who put the video together edited it wrong? I'm pretty sure Michael Weiss knows what the difference between a single and double jump is. Get over yourselves.
Blah thats nothing sometimes I accidently do a quad instead of my single without even thinking about it.

I just want to say one thing.
You guys are all fucking idiots.
No one cares if you skate or if this guy is stupid or whatever.
Just shut the fuck up.
Either watch the video or don't.
But we honestly don't give a shit about your so-called performance which in reality is really mediocre.
"Oh, I compete professionally..."
Suck my invisible dick.
No one cares.
